What “DM automation” means
DM automation closes the gap between interest and action. A post invites people to comment a word, and each person who does receives a message with the link they wanted. It works best when the post makes one clear offer and says plainly what will be sent to anyone who comments.
It is a rule the business sets in advance, so it runs without a reply being approved each time. Linkme describes Link AI's DM Automations as 'when someone comments a keyword, send a DM with a link'. Follow each platform's rules on automated messages and keep the message to what was promised.
