3. Use comment CTAs to make Instagram push your posts

One reel got 35x more comments than another. 

Instagram post

Instagram sees lots of comments and thinks "people love this" so it pushes your post harder.

The setup

  1. Create a special discount post.

  2. Only people that comment get the discount code

  3. Add this to your post: "Comment “Code” and we'll DM you the discount code."

  4. Set up ManyChat to:

  • Auto-DM them the discount code

  • Many chat Auto-replies to their comment instantly

Here is what you can do today

  • Pick your next post

  • Add: "Comment [WORD] for [thing]"

  • Connect ManyChat (takes 10 minutes)

  • Post and watch

Retention Recipe

4. Promote exclusive deals and discounts through SMS

Klaviyo’s SMS research shows that 35% of shoppers sign up to get text messages from brands because they want to purchase when there’s a sale. The promise of exclusive deals gives customers a compelling reason to subscribe to your SMS marketing.

“This shows customers that you recognize them as VIPs. You’re acknowledging their loyalty by offering more through the SMS program than you are through email alone,” Mazola, SMS Specialist at Klaviyo, explains. “It also increases brand loyalty.”

Marine Layer sent one VIP-only flash sale text and generated $80K in 24 hours.

The key: Make it truly exclusive. VIPs get early access (24-48 hours before everyone else) or VIP-only pricing.
