Chapter 01The inbox
Where your leads start the conversation
Most social media marketing agencies get buyers from three places. Each one deserves its own first question.
A before-and-after Reel
You show a client’s feed before and after. They comment “GROW”, the flow sends a free content calendar.
A free profile audit
Your link in bio offers a free profile audit. The setter asks for their handle and goal.
A Messenger ad for local owners
A Facebook ad reaches owners who rarely check Instagram. Ask who posts for them today.
Chapter 02Qualify
Ask these before the call
A setter books calls only for people who pass your fit rule. These questions make the rule, one per message.

Not a fit when
Wants followers or likes, not customers. Is starting their own SMMA and wants advice, not a service. Expects a month of content for a one-off fee.
No logins in the DM
Tell the setter never to ask for passwords or account access. Access comes after signing, through Meta Business Suite.

Opener after the calendar
Right after your flow sends the content calendar.
There’s your content calendar! Quick one first: what kind of business is it for, and which city are you in?
- Next
- Wait for the business and the city.
- Why it works
- Local agencies win on niche and place, and both shape the call.
Who posts today
Once you know the business.
Nice. Who runs your Instagram right now, and what’s hardest for you: ideas, filming, or posting every week?
- Next
- Note the gap: it’s what you pitch on the call.
- Why it works
- Picking one pain from three is easier than describing it from scratch.
Budget and start date
When the gap is one you take over.
That’s exactly what we take off owners’ plates. Our Replace [offer] is built for Replace [ideal client], Replace [price]. If that works, want posts going out this month?
- Next
- Yes: book. Not this month: set a dated follow-up.
- Why it works
- Price and timing land in one message, before anyone takes a slot.
Book the discovery call
After they say yes.
Great! On a quick call I’ll show you how we’d get you Replace [result]. Does Replace [day] at Replace [time] or Replace [day] at Replace [time] suit you?
- Next
- Booked in the DM through Cal.com, Calendly or iClosed.
- Why it works
- Showing the plan is the reason to get on the call.
Next-morning nudge
The next morning, if no time is picked.
Morning Replace [first name]! Want me to send a few posts we made for a business like Replace [business] before you choose a time?
- Next
- One more nudge at most, then let it rest.
- Why it works
- Their own kind of business on your feed is easy to picture.
