Ever wished every new Instagram follower got a warm, instant welcome—without you being glued to your phone? Manually tracking every fresh follower and sending them a DM is exhausting and nearly impossible as your account grows. Miss out on this, and you lose not just valuable connection moments but also potential advocates and customers; your DMs stay silent while your competitors wow their new fans first.

This formula takes over the tedious work for you: Botize checks for new Instagram followers every hour (or as you need), filters them, and sends a personalized DM from a list of pre-approved messages. Your first impression is now reliably automatic—turning every new follower into a genuine contact right away. You’ll save hours each week, never skip a new connection, and create a reputation for being responsive and welcoming—even while you’re busy.

Try this formula on Botize to start automating your Instagram DMs in minutes. You can tweak how often it checks, pick or adjust your messages, and even filter which users get your greetings. Launch it following the step-by-step or jump straight to the ready-to-use recipe—either way, your Instagram will never miss a beat again.
