## What it does

This skill treats DM selling as a reply to intent: someone comments a keyword, answers a Story, or messages first. Cold blasting is out of scope by design. The flow splits in two — WoopSocial publishes the trigger post, while the actual conversation runs in an external tool built on the official Meta API, or a human sends the messages.

The method is the WARMS framework, five steps: wait for the trigger, answer fast and like a person, give value instead of a pitch, capture the email and move the thread to email, stay inside platform rules. Before drafting anything it reads `brand-profile`, `voice-builder` and `goals-and-kpis`, so those need to exist first. Reference files cover funnel architecture, message templates and a safety checklist.

One limit matters: WoopSocial has no DM or comment surface. The skill only designs the funnel and writes copy — sending automation has to live somewhere else. Replies must land inside the platform's 24-hour window, otherwise you lose the right to write first. Links or shorteners in the opening message are the quickest way to get the account banned.

## When to use it
- build a comment-to-DM-to-email funnel
- write a trigger post asking for a keyword comment
- draft a warm DM sequence per trigger type
- audit a DM script against banned behaviors
- route high-intent contacts to a human

## Example prompts
- Design a comment-to-DM-to-email funnel for my launch and write the keyword trigger post
- Draft the warm DM sequence for people who replied to my Story
- Check my DM script against the ban behaviors and tell me what to cut

  Social selling and DM funnels — consent-first selling in the DMs, never spam. Use when someone wants to "sell in the DMs," "set up a
  comment-to-DM funnel," "do DM outreach," "turn comments/followers into leads or customers," or convert
  intent into private conversations. Works ONLY as a response to intent (comments, story replies, follows,
  keyword DMs) via the comment->DM->email funnel — never cold outreach. Uses the WARMS framework. Reads
  brand-profile + voice-builder + goals-and-kpis first. WoopSocial has NO DM/comment surface: the agent
  designs the funnel and drafts the trigger post, DM sequences, and manual outreach scripts; WoopSocial
  publishes the trigger posts; the actual comment->DM automation runs in an external official-Meta-API
  tool (ManyChat/LinkDM/etc.) or a human sends warm DMs; consent-first always, ban-behaviors avoided,
  metrics never fabricated. Distinct from link-in-bio-and-traffic, reply-and-comment-writer, and email-and-newsletter.

# social-selling-and-dm

The **consent-first DM conversation funnel** — turn intent signals into warm private conversations that
capture an owned lead. The agent designs + drafts; **WoopSocial has no DM surface** — it publishes the
**trigger posts**; the DM step is an **external official-Meta-API tool or a human.**

## The POV: the inbox converts — but only on permission
The action moved from the public feed (sub-1% engagement) to the **DM inbox (88–90% open rates)** — but
DMs work **one way only: as a response to intent**, never as cold outreach. **Permission is the whole
game.** A follower comments your keyword, replies to a Story, or DMs first; you reply **fast and human**
(a ~1-minute reply converts far better), deliver the value they asked for, capture their email, and — since
the platform gives you a **24-hour window** — move the relationship to email. Done this way it's the
highest-converting channel on social. Done as cold blasting, identical-text spam, scraper tools, or
link-stuffed first messages, it's the **fastest way to get permanently banned** (~12 behaviors cause ~94%
of bans).

## Read these first
1. **brand-profile** — offer/positioning.
2. **voice-builder** — so DMs sound human and on-brand.
3. **goals-and-kpis** — the conversion goal the funnel serves.

## The framework: WARMS
(Depth: `references/the-warms-framework.md`.)
