A good comment-to-DM campaign needs three pieces: a keyword people can't miss, a public reply that shows others it works, and a DM that gets one click and one reply. Below are 40 ready-to-use pieces. Copy them, change the brand details, and test.

Frequently asked questions
What keyword should I use for comment to DM?
Use one short, obvious word that matches the reward: PRICE for prices, LINK for a product, GUIDE for a free resource, BOOK for appointments. Add common misspellings and Hindi variants.
How long should an automated Instagram DM be?
Two to four short lines: greeting with their name, one line of value, one button, and a question that invites a reply.
Should I write DMs in Hindi or English?
Match the language of your Reel and audience. Hinglish works well for many Indian audiences. Keep product names and prices clear.
How do I make public comment replies look less robotic?
Write three or four different short replies and let the tool rotate them, for example: Sent! Check your DMs, Done, Link is in your inbox.
