Now, set up the **KEYWORD** you want your audience to comment on your post.
If you want a specific word, enter it in the "Enter a word or multiple" field. If not, you can select "any word".

Now, set up the first DM that will be sent to everyone who comments the **KEYWORD** on your post or reel. You can edit the message by clicking the text box.

Click "Next"

Now, set up the message where the link to your freebie or podcast episode will be shared. You'll see three editable fields:
1. **The Message**
2. **The URL** - Paste the link to what you are sharing here.
3. **Button Label** - This is the text on the button that people need to click to open the link.

After filling in all the fields, click "Next."

Now, you'll be prompted to choose additional automation options. I usually select these two:
1. **Publicly reply to a comment** - This option lets you reply to people commenting on your post. (You'll set up the replies in the next step.)
2. **Ask for an email** - It's crucial to always collect emails.
17
Now, you can edit three variations of your automated replies to the comments people leave on your post.
