Checking each entrant for follows and mentions is tedious and error-prone.
Overlooking qualified participants leads to frustration and negative brand sentiment.
Without automated tagging, it’s nearly impossible to retarget participants later with promotions or announcements.
Inrō’s giveaway automation template solves these issues by seamlessly orchestrating triggers, conditions, and folder tagging—so you can focus on prize strategy and creative assets, not admin.
This turnkey template empowers brands and influencers to:
Set your giveaway post or story with clear instructions (e.g., “Comment ‘🎉’ and reply in your story to enter!”). Configure Inrō to watch for either:
Once detected, the template fires automatically.
Immediately DM the entrant with a friendly opt-in message:
“Thanks for entering our giveaway! To confirm your participation, please reply ‘I’m in!’”
This step ensures active consent and primes them for the necessary rule checks.
Within the DM, outline the entry rules clearly, for example:
Use Inrō’s Follower Condition block to automatically verify they’ve followed your account. If they haven’t, send a gentle reminder with a link to your profile.
Your template should include a separate scenario that triggers whenever someone mentions your Handle in a comment or story—automatically tagging them into a “Mentioned” folder. Back in the main giveaway flow, insert a Folder Condition to check if the user is in “Mentioned.”
Once both the follow and mention conditions pass, send a congratulatory DM:
“🎉 You’re officially entered! Best of luck—we’ll announce winners on [Date].”
Simultaneously, Inrō tags the user into a “Giveaway Participants” folder. This segment becomes your ready-made audience for:

Automating your giveaway saves time, eliminates human error, and guarantees only valid entries count. It also creates a segmented audience for retargeting future promotions, which helps turn participants into long-term followers or customers.
Once participants are tagged in the “Giveaway Participants” folder, you can export or randomly select a winner from the list. Announce the winner publicly on Instagram, and send them a direct message to confirm prize delivery.
