Run a giveaway that grows your reach

Reach-growing giveaway automation

By inro.social

What this automation does

• Runs a time-limited giveaway to grow reach by prompting commenters to tag a friend.
• Uses a DM-driven entry flow: gate follow, collect email, and confirm entry.
• Keeps entrants organized in a folder for easy follow-up.

How it works

1) Trigger: a comment with a tag-on-next-post.
2) Auto-comment: sends a DM prompt (Check your DMs to finish your entry 🎉; Almost done, the next step is in your DMs; Sent you a DM to complete your entry).
3) Follow gate: asks the commenter to follow to enter, with a 24-hour expiry and a button labeled I've followed you.
4) Collect: asks for email, with up to 2 attempts and a 20-hour expiry; stores as property email.
5) Confirmation: sends a final “You're in!” message; notes giveaway end date (31 October).

When to use

• To boost reach, engagement, and your email list with a scalable giveaway.
• When you want an automated, clear entry path and follower gate.

Best practices

• Personalize messages to your brand, adjust end date, terms, and winner mechanics.
• Review entrants in the entered folder before closing.
