Follow these simple steps to send Instagram auto-messages.
Step 1: Signup & Setup for Instagram Auto Message Sender
If you haven’t already signed up for an account on Prospectss, head on to Prospectss & sign up on it. After signing up, you will have to choose a plan that perfectly suits your needs. Once you have successfully signed up, you need to search for the Instagram Auto Message Sender tool under the Instagram tools section.
Step 2: Download the Instagram Auto Message Extension
You can download the extension from the Chrome Web Store. Alternatively, you can also get the link to the chrome store extension from the Instagram Auto Message Sender page.
Step 3: Authenticate the Instagram Auto Message Sender tool
After you’ve downloaded the tool, go to Instagram & log in. Then open the Instagram Auto Message Sender tool by clicking on the blue arrow on the page’s right-hand side. If the icon is not visible, please refresh the page.
Once you do that, authenticate your account using your account key & email from which you’ve signed up on Prospectss. (Do not enter your Instagram email or password. We do not require your Instagram login credentials). You can also refer to the images below.

Step 4: Start your Instagram Outreach Campaign
To start your Instagram outreach campaign by sending personalized automatic DMs to your leads, you have 4 options at this moment.
Let’s take a look!
Option 1: Upload a CSV file with Profile URLs
To directly upload a CSV file, click on the CSV File of Profile URLs/Usernames option.
Then, upload the CSV file of your choice to start your Instagram outreach campaign.
You will then be asked to select the column that contains all the profile URLs on the CSV file. Once you do that, click on Next.
You will then be directed to the tab where you need to write 3 different/unique versions of personalized custom messages. Once you write your messages, click on Next.
When sending messages with this method, you can personalize your message by addressing people using curly brackets {}. For example, if you have a column named ‘First Name‘ in your CSV file, you can send a message – ‘Hi, {First Name} check out my new tutorial video.’
You can do this even for the last name or call out whichever column you’ve selected in the CSV. Simply enter the value of the column present in your CSV file & mention that inside the curly bracket before sending your message.
Note: When writing messages, you can include emojis & write your message in any language you desire. Keep in mind that one of these 3 messages will be sent to your leads randomly. You can write up to 10 custom messages if you want. The more messages you write, the less likely they will be considered spam.
To create more than 3 messages, click on the plus sign available in the tool. If you wish to delete a few message templates, click on the trashcan icon.
Now click on Start to send your automated Instagram messages.
In case you want to make any changes to your Instagram outreach campaign, you can go back to the previous screen by clicking on the back arrow.
Option 2: Manually Paste Profile URLs or Usernames
If you want to enter your targets’ profiles manually, click the Paste Profile URLs/Usernames option.
Now enter all the profile URLs or usernames that you want to outreach to. Remember that you need to add each URL or username on a separate line. Once you’ve selected your option, click on the Next button.
Note: You can add up to a maximum of 10,000 profiles.
You will then be directed to the tab where you need to write 3 different/unique versions of personalized messages. Once you write your messages, click on Next.
Note: The instructions to send the messages will be the same as I’ve mentioned in the previous steps.
Now click on Start to send Instagram auto-messages.
Option 3: Followers of a Profile
To send messages to the followers of a profile, you need to go to any Instagram profile to whose followers you want to auto-message. Then click on the Followers of XYZ option.
Note: XYZ stands for the Instagram username of a person. For this tutorial, I’ve selected the profile of Neil Patel. Hence, you are seeing that username in the tool.
Now, enter the total number of followers you want to send messages to & click on Start.
You will then be directed to the tab where you need to write 3 different/unique versions of personalized messages. Once you write your messages, click on Next.
Once you do that, your Instagram outreach campaign will start. You can pause the campaign or stop & finish the campaign anytime you want.
Option 4: Following of a Profile
To send messages to the people who are being followed by an Instagram user, you need to go to any Instagram profile to whose following you want to auto-message. Then click on the Following of XYZ option.
Note: XYZ stands for the Instagram username of a person. For this tutorial, I’ve selected the profile of Neil Patel. Hence, you are seeing that username in the tool.
Now, enter the total number of people who are being followed by your selected Instagram user you want to send messages to & click on Next.
You will then be directed to the tab where you need to write 3 different/unique versions of personalized messages. Once you write your messages, click on Next.
Once you do that, your Instagram outreach campaign will start. You can pause/resume the campaign or stop & finish the campaign anytime you want.
After every message, there is a delay of 20 minutes. We’ve kept this default limit to keep your account safe. Thus, in one hour, you can send 3 custom auto-messages. These are randomly sent, which means you can send 72 messages in one day. Also, if you wish to discontinue, simply click on the Stop & Finish button or Pause if you want to halt the campaign.
Try starting slowly by sending 10 automated DMs in the first few days & gradually increasing the limit for newly created accounts. Slowly work your way up to sending 72 messages. This will also keep your account risk-free.
You can also download the campaign report. It’ll show you the time & what message was delivered to the users. You’ll also get an insight into why the message was not sent if that’s the case.
Step 5: Send Bulk Instagram Auto Messages
There is a way you can send messages in bulk, bypassing the limits to this tool’s usage. For that, you’ll require multiple Instagram accounts & also Google Chrome profiles.
For you to easily understand, assume you have 10 Instagram accounts that you want to use to send more than the limited 72 messages per day you get from 1 account. You need to open those 10 Instagram accounts in 10 different Google Chrome profiles to send bulk Instagram messages to the people/businesses you want. We found this a way you can maximize your outreach in the safest way possible!
Here’s How You Create Multiple Google Chrome Profiles
Open a new Google Chrome browser. Then click on the add profile option to create a new Chrome profile.
Also, if you have multiple Google accounts, use them to create new Google Chrome profiles. If not, you also can continue without an account, as shown in the image below. Just add a profile name & pick a color of your choice.
Viola! Your new Google Chrome profile is now all set.
Repeat this process for each of your Instagram accounts, and you’ll be able to send a lot more messages in no time!
You can purchase older Instagram accounts on Accsmarket or similar sites. Newer accounts are easily flagged. Thus, I’ll suggest you use an aged & active account.
The Instagram Auto Message Sender extension tool works in the background. So, if you want to work on other tasks on your Google Chrome browser, you can do it without interrupting your campaign. Remember that you need to keep the Instagram tab where the extension is running. DO NOT close that tab. Also, avoid opening multiple Instagram tabs. However, you can switch tabs if you also want to work on other tasks.
