At a glance
- Who
- A manifestation mentor. Work with energy, mindset and identity. Starts with a free webinar, then a free 30-minute video call.
- Problem
- Before Setor only 35.2% of replies went out within 5 minutes, and the slowest waited 17.6 hours.
- Change

- Scope
- One account, 15 days. Counted: booked calls.
Who they are and what they sell
The client is a manifestation mentor. They help people consciously shape their reality by working with energy, mindset and identity. They sell the offer through a free 30-minute video call, and the first step is a free webinar.
Traffic comes from Instagram and Messenger: in the last 90 days 781 people wrote to the account, 707 on Instagram and 74 on Messenger. 10 of the 35 calls were booked from Messenger.
What wasn't working
Before Setor started, DM traffic was small: 71 conversations with leads in 90 days. Some replies went out right away, but the slower ones could wait half a day or longer.
hi, I saw your video about manifesting, can I ask you something?
- first reply from the account: the following day
People write in the evening, because that's when they have a moment and the topic interests them. By morning their head is somewhere else.
The 90 days before Setor tell the same story. Only 35.2% of replies went out within 5 minutes, the slowest 10% waited 17.6 hours, and 12.7% of conversations never got a reply at all.
How we set Setor up
Setor has been on the account since Oct 13, 2026. It replies to Instagram and Messenger DMs and runs the conversation from the first message to a slot in the calendar. The whole setup comes down to four things.
- QualificationBefore offering a slot, Setor asks what someone wants to change, what they have already tried and where they are today.
- Follow-upsWhen a conversation stops halfway, Setor comes back a few hours later with one short question.
- CalendarSetor checks open slots in the calendar, offers two and books whichever the person picks. It only asks for an email to send the confirmation to.
- Automations from comments and storiesA comment under a post opens a DM conversation with a button that sends a link to a free webinar. Setor takes it from there.
What Setor doesn't do. It doesn't promise manifestation results or earnings, give financial advice or run sessions. It gathers context and books a free call, and the mentor works with the client.
What changed
We compare Instagram across two periods: the 90 days before Setor and the first two weeks with Setor, Oct 13 to 26, 2026.
| Metric | before Setor | with Setor | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Slowest 10% of replies | 17.6 hours | 4.4 minutes | |
| Conversations with no reply at all | 12.7% | 0% | |
| Conversations where a lead wrote (90 days before, 14 days after) | 71 | 592 |
Instagram. Before: the 90 days before Setor started, only 122 replies in 71 conversations, so the sample is small. After: Oct 13 to 26, 2026. We don't show the median reply time: before Setor some replies went out within seconds, so that comparison wouldn't be fair.
Traffic on the account grew at the same time: from 71 conversations in 90 days to 592 in 14 days. Setor didn't cause that growth, it replies to the traffic the account brings in.
In total, Oct 14 to 28 brought 35 booked calls. Behind that are 3,075 replies from Setor on Instagram and Messenger.
What tells you the most, though, is when it happens.
DMs don't sleep in the evening.
Setor replies when the mentor has finished for the day, is asleep or is off for the weekend. Figures from the two weeks Setor has worked on the account.
- 26%of Setor's replies sent between 8 pm and 8 am
- 49%of calls booked between 6 pm and 8 am
- 37%of calls booked at the weekend
What a conversation looks like
The pattern is simple: a question about what someone wants to change, questions about what they've already tried and two slots to choose from.
- 1Opening
hi 🙂 how is manifesting what you want going for you?
slowly, small things come fast, but the bigger ones are harder
- 2Questions
nice that the small things work out. what's the hardest part with the bigger ones?
money, I keep feeling it doesn't add up
what have you tried so far to change that?
affirmations, they help a little
and what would you most like to experience in your business right now?
financial peace, without constantly counting
- 3Booking

sending it now

- Tuesday, 9:30 am in the calendar
Setor doesn't promise results or earnings. It invites the person to a call where the mentor judges whether they can help.
What you can copy
You don't need Setor to start. You can put these three things in place even if you reply yourself.
- 1
Reply within minutes
Before Setor 35.2% of replies went out within 5 minutes, now 93.8%. The slowest 10% dropped from 17.6 hours to 4.4 minutes. A conversation started in the evening doesn't have to wait until morning.
- 2
Reply in the evening and at weekends
49% of calls were booked between 6 pm and 8 am, and 37% at the weekend. If you only reply on weekdays, those conversations wait until Monday.
- 3
Don't skip Messenger
10 of the 35 calls were booked from Messenger, almost one in three. If you only reply on Instagram, part of your traffic slips past.
The honest part
- These are the results of one account from its first two weeks. It is too early to draw conclusions about a longer period.
- The comparison covers the first two weeks with Setor, Oct 13 to 26, 2026.
- Traffic on the account grew at the same time: 71 conversations in the 90 days before Setor, 592 in the 14 days after the start. Setor handles traffic, it doesn't create it.
- A booked call is not a sale: the account doesn't record sales in the dashboard, so we don't give revenue. Of 33 meetings in the calendar, 11 are marked as attended and 5 as no-shows.
