Manychat Automation / Implementation & handover

Turn Instagram inquiries
into a clear
next step.

A useful messaging flow starts with the conversation you want to support. We map the entry point, the information someone needs, the next action, and where the team should take over. The workflow is scoped around your account access, channel capabilities, and current tools.

Discuss this workflow
The short answer

What does the work include?

Puzinski plans and builds Manychat flows around a defined customer journey, with approved messaging, relevant information capture, CRM handoffs where included, and a clear route to a person.

Instagram inquiry → next action

Make the conversation
lead somewhere.

Explore a fictional social-inquiry flow. The useful work includes the conversation, the destination, and the route to a person.

FICTIONAL EXAMPLE · BROWSER-ONLY PREVIEWNo messages sent
Sample incoming context

“I’m interested in the service. How do I speak with someone?”

Capture the agreed details. Route to the right next step.

Check that the agreed fields reach the intended destination and that a person can continue the conversation.

Offer the agreed human handoff.

Check where the request appears and who is responsible. Do not promise an instant response unless the business can provide it.

“I’m interested, but I haven’t chosen a location.”

Ask the useful question or use the agreed fallback.

An incomplete answer should not silently drop the inquiry or assign it at random.

This is a planning illustration, not a client interface or a live Manychat/Zoho connection. Real implementation is tested in your authorized accounts. No customer data or AI service is used in this preview.

What you receive

A working flow.
A usable handover.

Know what is delivered, what needs your input, and what is quoted separately.

01

Flow map & approved messages

The entry point, questions, replies, destination, and human handoff.

02

Configured starting flow

The agreed build in your account, with only the scoped connections.

03

Launch checks & handover

Test notes, known limits, operating instructions, and ownership.

What to have ready

Bring the offer, approved FAQs, current Manychat account and connected channel, the intended next step, and whoever will handle human replies. Plan features, permissions, and messaging rules are checked in the actual account.

Manychat: external-request capabilities

Choose the first useful scope

A full Manychat rollout is quoted around channels, flows, integrations, and exceptions. The Lead Handoff Sprint is a narrower existing-source-to-existing-CRM engagement; it does not include a complete messaging program.

One-time agency fees. Software, usage, and wider implementation are separate.

Describe your current workflow
01

Start with the conversation

Choose one audience, offer, and entry point. Explain what the person is asking for and what should happen next. A useful first release may answer common questions, capture an inquiry, or guide someone to the right team. We separate essential steps from later campaign ideas before building.

02

Make the handoff part of the flow

Define which information is actually needed, where it belongs, and who owns the response. If CRM work is included, agree on field mapping, assignment, and duplicate handling. A completed flow is not automatically a sale; reporting should distinguish a response, a new inquiry, and a later sales outcome.

03

Test messages and exceptions

Review approved wording, missing answers, repeated contacts, and the route to a person. Use fictional or appropriately authorized test information. Check the agreed triggers and actions in the actual account setup before rollout. Platform permissions, subscription features, messaging rules, and API access are assessed during discovery.

04

Leave the team with a usable workflow

Handover includes the agreed flow map, operating notes, test outcomes, and known limitations. Decide who can update the messages, what needs approval, and how issues are reported. Later channels, new campaigns, and wider integrations are separate scope decisions.

Scope & useful answers

Before you
get started.

Does every Manychat project need AI?

No. A clear rule or approved message sequence may be sufficient. AI is considered for a defined task with information boundaries and human review.

Can this connect to our CRM?

We assess the actual systems, permissions, access, and integration needs before confirming the scope. Record creation, routing, and follow-up are separate actions that need testing.

What does it cost?

The quote follows the number of flows, channels, integrations, and exceptions. A $249 focused review can assess one high-level workflow. The $1,250 Lead Handoff Sprint covers its specific one-source-to-existing-CRM scope; it is not a price for an entire Manychat rollout.
