Hi Guys and Gals,

In Facebook, I don't do DM's unless they interact with my content or group. I am planning to start prospecting on Instagram. Does cold DM work? How do you prospect through Instagram?

Thanks for the info in advance.

    Cold Dm works but don't do it in a spammy way. Try to build a genuine conversation at first rather than directly marketing.

    You need to make it seem organic, authentic, and non spammy. As others have stated, have a real conversation first.

    Yes it works please note that your first line should be attractive. and I will also recommend to start with Hello and their name like Hello wfjcc.

    Work if done right, but they require a personal touch. Keep it short, personalized, and focus on offering value, not a sales pitch. The main thing is to avoid spam, otherwise you won't get anywhere.

    If you just open with a sales pitch it is useless. If you start a conversation and ask who they know that could use your service or product... then you will have better luck.
