I know so many people who waste hours every day replying manually to DMs and comments. If you're not using any automation tools, you're probably missing out on a ton of potential sales and engagement that slips through the cracks. People ask about pricing, availability, or basic info and if you don't respond quickly, they move on to your competitors. It's frustrating and exhausting, but honestly I was skeptical about automation tools because most are either crazy expensive ($50+ per month) or have such limited free plans that you can't really test them properly. Then I found [Slide](https://slide.dhem.io) \- and this actually has a genuinely generous free tier (not one of those "free trials" that demands your credit card). It handles comment and DM replies across Instagram, Facebook, Messenger and many more using keyword triggers. So when someone comments "price?" or "how much?", it automatically responds with whatever you have set up. What I love is that you can actually test it properly without any commitment. I've been using it for a few weeks now and I'm getting back 2-3 hours of my day while actually catching more potential customers than before. Anyone else found good solutions that don't break the bank? Curious what others are using to solve this time-sucking problem!
