Introduction
Samrat Bhatt, known as @psychognify on Instagram, focuses on personal development, sharing insights on books, psychology, and brain hacks. Despite his valuable content, he struggled with limited engagement, having only 50 followers. Seeking a solution to manage increasing comments on his posts, Samrat turned to Spur for help.
The Challenge
Samrat posted a reel discussing how a specific song can reduce anxiety, inviting followers to comment for the song link. This reel quickly gained traction, resulting in about 500 comments. Samrat found it challenging to respond to each comment manually and needed an efficient way to manage and leverage this engagement.
“I did 500 DMs manually then eventually spur rescued me ... already 30k+ done!”
The Solution
Spur onboarded Samrat in just 5 minutes, connecting his reel with Spur’s Instagram Comment Automation. Here's how the solution worked:

Follow Request
Before sending the song link, the automation checked if the user was following Samrat. If not, it requested them to follow him.
Link Delivery
Upon following, the automation sent the YouTube link to the song that reduces anxiety.
