- Always drop a clear CTA: "Tap the link!", "Reply YES!", "Claim now!"
- Keep it on-brand: Sound like you, not a bot. Emojis? Humor? Go for it.
- Always preview/test with a dummy account first. Nobody likes broken automations.
- If expecting loads of comments (think big promos), let AI Auto-Reply help you out without missing a beat.
