This powerful new insight is designed to get you more Instagram followers, specifically more of your customers following you on Instagram. This feature opens up a wide range of benefits including increased social engagement, better retargeting, and higher brand value.  Plus, in true Gatsby fashion, you can now use this as a filter in Gatsby DM auto-replies for more targeting automated engagement. For example, the following screenshot shows an automated DM response to a customer who tags you in their Story AND has > 500 Followers BUT doesn't follow you yet: ![Gatsby Auto-Reply to get more followers](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Gatsby%20Auto-Reply%20to%20get%20more%20followers.png?width=2880&height=1246&name=Gatsby%20Auto-Reply%20to%20get%20more%20followers.png) ![Gatsby Auto-Reply Filters for Follow You](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Gatsby%20Auto-Reply%20Filters%20for%20Follow%20You.png?width=2472&height=958&name=Gatsby%20Auto-Reply%20Filters%20for%20Follow%20You.png) In addition, you can sync this insight to Klaviyo, Loyalty programs and more for Segments and Flows that get you more Instagram Followers. For example, this is the new "Follows You" profile property in Klaviyo: ![Screen Shot 2023-11-28 at 1.16.46 PM](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%201.16.46%20PM.png?width=1274&height=672&name=Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%201.16.46%20PM.png)   > You can now build Klaviyo Flows to get more Instagram followers > > or > > Give LoyaltyLion points when customers follow you ## 1. Instagram to Klaviyo ![Klaviyo Flow to get more Instagram Followers Gatsby](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Klaviyo%20Flow%20to%20get%20more%20Instagram%20Followers%20Gatsby.png?width=2880&height=1274&name=Klaviyo%20Flow%20to%20get%20more%20Instagram%20Followers%20Gatsby.png) ##### How to use Klaviyo to get more Instagram followers: 1. Create a segment of your customers who follow you on Instagram ![Instagram Follow Status Gatsby Klaviyo Segment](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Instagram%20Follow%20Status%20Gatsby%20Klaviyo%20Segment.png?width=2880&height=944&name=Instagram%20Follow%20Status%20Gatsby%20Klaviyo%20Segment.png) 2. Create a segment of your customers who don't follow you yet ![Screen Shot 2023-12-07 at 10.24.00 AM](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-12-07%20at%2010.24.00%20AM.png?width=2878&height=950&name=Screen%20Shot%202023-12-07%20at%2010.24.00%20AM.png) 3. In addition to the Profile Property switching from False to True when they follow you, Gatsby also sends an event (or metric) to Klaviyo so you can trigger flows based on the event action itself: ![Screen Shot 2023-11-28 at 1.22.34 PM](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%201.22.34%20PM.png?width=1254&height=366&name=Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%201.22.34%20PM.png) Imagine all the ways you can use this data, for example: 1. Flows to get more customers following you on Instagram 2. Flows to thank customers when they do follow you 3. Insight into how much money your followers spend vs non-followers 4. Insight into how quickly after following you, they purchase products The value here is near limitless, connecting all this Instagram data to Klaviyo and your CDP. But this Instagram Follows You functionality doesn't just work with Klaviyo, it also works with Attentive, Yotpo, LoyaltyLion, Stamped and more.  Let's look at how this works with LoyaltyLion. ## 2. Instagram to Loyalty ![Screen Shot 2023-11-28 at 2.02.23 PM](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%202.02.23%20PM.png?width=584&height=608&name=Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%202.02.23%20PM.png) ##### How to use LoyaltyLion to get more Instagram followers: 1. Create a new Points campaign for Follow us on Instagram (Note: this is different than what LoyaltyLion offers out of the box, as Gatsby will fully verify that this person complete the Follow action) ![Screen Shot 2023-11-28 at 2.02.18 PM](https://gatsby.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%202.02.18%20PM.png?width=1724&height=788&name=Screen%20Shot%202023-11-28%20at%202.02.18%20PM.png) 2. Follow the steps in our [integration guide](https://help.gatsby.ai/en/gatsby-loyalty-lion-setup-guide) for the setup details. *Note: In order for Gatsby to know if the person follows you on Instagram, they have to either tag you in their Story or DM your brand. This is why it's important to ask all customers and ambassador applicants to DM you to verify their handle with you. Chat us for more details on this.* ## Key Product Features: Effortless Klaviyo, Attentive and Yotpo Integrations: Gatsby's Follow Status effortlessly integrates with your Email & SMS tools, offering brands a streamlined solution to grow your Instagram following.
