Trigger → DM → outcome

This is the complete automation in plain language. Start with one repeated request, send one useful response, and point people to one maintained destination.

The public prompt

Invite customers to comment or DM "book" for the correct service calendar.

  1. 01 · trigger

    Comment or DM “book”

    Invite customers to comment or DM "book" for the correct service calendar. Replyrr listens on comments and incoming dms.

    book
  2. 02 · private DM

    Here is the booking page for this service →

    Destination: Booking calendar, order form, menu, or service page.

  3. 03 · outcome

    The next local action stays one reply away

    A customer can reach the correct calendar, menu, price page, or location information while the business is serving people in person.

02 · Why it fits

Keep the front desk answer available in Instagram

Local demand often arrives while the team is busy with appointments, tables, orders, or customers. A small set of exact replies can handle the repeated handoff without pretending every question is the same.

Route booking intent

A keyword such as "book" can return the current calendar for a consultation, class, table, service, or appointment.

Answer practical questions

Send maintained pages for menus, hours, location, service prices, preparation details, or ordering instructions.

Keep exceptions human

Use exact rules for predictable questions and leave unusual, sensitive, or high-context enquiries for a person or a carefully grounded AI reply.

03 · Set it up

Three settings. One clear handoff.

The useful version of automation is specific: a real prompt, an accurate message, and a destination your business maintains.

  1. 01

    List the five repeated questions

    Start with the messages staff copy most often and identify the maintained page or answer behind each one.

  2. 02

    Choose one-word routes

    Use clear prompts such as "book", "menu", "hours", "price", or "location" so customers know what each reply delivers.

  3. 03

    Test every destination

    Open the calendar, menu, map, or order form on a phone and update the automation whenever the destination changes.

05 · Questions

Straight answers for local businesses.

Account requirements, platform safety, and the practical limits of this playbook.

What can a local business automate on Instagram?

Common Replyrr workflows send booking pages, menus, price or service pages, hours, location details, order forms, and repeat policy answers after an eligible comment or DM keyword.

Can Replyrr answer booking and price questions at the same time?

Yes. Create separate rules for separate intents so a booking keyword sends the calendar and a price keyword sends the maintained service or product page.

Does Replyrr replace staff in the Instagram inbox?

No. It handles the repeated first response and records automated sends. Staff should still handle exceptions, complaints, sensitive details, and questions that need judgement.

Does a local business need a Facebook Page for Replyrr?

No. Replyrr uses Instagram Login for an eligible Business or Creator account. It does not require that Instagram account to be linked to a Facebook Page.

Put the next local action behind one word

Send the calendar, menu, order form, price page, or location detail customers already request in Instagram.
