Workflow at a glanceHighLevel workflow

Setup (one time)

  1. 01 Setup

    In Workflows, choose Build using AI and describe the dental comment-to-DM flow. Ask for one follow-up after 24 hours.

  2. 02 Setup

    In AI Studio, ask for a lead magnet on the existing practice site. Choose a popup. The demo produces a free Invisalign or implants consultation offer with a form and offers CRM connection.

  3. 03 Setup

    Configure the calendar name, assignee, appointment length and availability, with booking, cancellation, reschedule, reminder and follow-up notices.

  4. 04 Setup

    Create a Conversation AI agent named after the practice. Crawl all domain URLs into its knowledge base, test answers and use thumbs down plus Train bot to correct errors.

  5. 05 Setup

    Enable appointment booking, follow-up and human handover. Handover stops the agent, assigns the conversation and creates a task. Test with a second account before going live.

Runtime

  1. 01 Trigger

    Instagram comment on a post, filtered to contain the exact keyword.

  2. 02 Action + wait

    Reply to the comment, send the first DM, wait for a reply and branch by service: braces, implants, checkup or catch-all. Swap the keyword per post.

  3. 03 Action

    Send the booking link, notify the team and tag the contact social media lead so the practice can see the source.

4How it went

Sean claims a community member sold four clients at $297/month in one week without making social posts for them. The demo agent answered hours correctly but missed the location, which he corrected. The comment-to-DM flow was configured, but no live comment or real appointment booking was shown.

Only what the source reports. Numbers above come from the source.

5Worth knowing

  • Clients keep posting and include the keyword in each caption. The social media lead tag provides month-one lead attribution.
  • The popup offered a free Invisalign or implants consultation with a 3D scan and treatment plan. Its form collected first name, last name, email, phone and consultation choice.
  • The knowledge crawl covered 27 pages. Sean enables human handover for every client.
  • He cites a $497/month tier with posting, a $97/month GHL starter plan, and Conversation AI at about 2 cents per response or a $97/month AI employee plan. The video includes affiliate links.
