3 automations to start with

  • PRICE: people comment on a product post. Example: "Hi {first_name}! This one is ₹{price}. Order: {link}"
  • SIZE: people ask about sizes. Example: "Size chart here: {link}. Reply with your size and I'll check stock."
  • COD: people ask about cash on delivery. Example: "Yes, we offer COD on orders above ₹{amount}. Order: {link}"

Tips

  • Put the keyword on your product photo.
