Who they are and what they sell
The client is a mentor for trainers and fitness studio owners. They teach them to build profitable boutique training studios and grow revenue without constant 1:1 work. They sell mentoring and start with a call.
All the traffic is Instagram. In the best 30 days, Feb 19 to Mar 20, 2026, 178 conversations had a message from someone, and 23 calls were booked. On the very first day, Feb 19, 10 people booked.
Where we started
The account started with a large inbox: 746 conversations with leads, and in the best 30 days 178 of them had a message from someone.
The booked-call data shows where the results came from. 21 of 24 booked people had first written to the account more than 2 days earlier, and the median time from the first message to booking is almost 10 days. The start relied on conversations that were already under way.
How we set Setor up
Setor is an AI setter: an AI assistant for Instagram and Messenger DMs. On this account it runs the conversation from the first message to a slot in the calendar, including conversations that were already under way. The whole setup comes down to four things.
- QualificationBefore offering a slot, Setor asks what kind of studio someone runs, how many clients they have and what's holding growth back.
- Follow-upsWhen a conversation stops halfway, Setor comes back a few hours later with a short question. A first follow-up went to 194 conversations, a second to 111.
- CalendarSetor sees open slots, offers two specific ones and books whichever the person picks.
- Automations from comments and storiesA comment under a post or a reply to a story opens a DM conversation right away. Setor takes it from there.
What Setor doesn't do. It doesn't promise the studio will be profitable or quote prices outside the offer. It gathers context and books the call, and the mentor runs the sale.
What a conversation looks like
The pattern is simple: questions about the studio, the goal and what they've tried, and two slots to choose from at the end.
- 1Opening
hi, I have a small studio and want to grow it, been following you for a while
hi 🙂 great. how many clients do you have in the studio right now?
about 45, I run 1:1 sessions and have been testing group classes for a year
- 2Qualification
and what would you like it to look like in a year?
a full schedule in one studio, then a second location
what's holding growth back the most right now?
I can't reach new people, but once someone walks in, almost everyone stays
have you tried agencies or ads?
a few agencies, mixed results
- 3Booking
retention is a strong place to start from. I'd like to invite you to a call so we can go through it calmly. does Tuesday 3 pm or Thursday 11 am work?
thursday
booked 🙂 see you Thursday!
- Thursday, 11 am in the calendar
Setor doesn't promise the studio will be profitable or quote prices outside the offer. For those questions, it invites people to a call.
What you can copy
Three takeaways from this account that you can use even if you reply yourself.
- 1
Start with conversations already under way
21 of 24 booked people had written to the account more than 2 days earlier. Before you look for new leads, go through the conversations that stopped after a few messages.
- 2
Qualify before you invite
In 30 days 178 conversations had a message, and 23 ended in a slot. Asking about client numbers and the goal lets you spend a sales call on the people it's for.
- 3
Come back more than once
The median time from the first message to booking is almost 10 days, so one reminder isn't enough. On this account a first follow-up went to 194 conversations and a second to 111.
The honest part
- These are the results of one account. The first month was much stronger than the rest: from Mar 21 to Jun 6, 2026 the account booked just one more call.
- The start relied mostly on conversations that were already under way. Setor handles traffic, it doesn't create it: someone has to write before a call can be booked.
- The dashboard shows no sale or amount, so we don't give revenue or return on investment.
- We don't show a before and after: this account's data from that period can't cleanly separate Setor's replies from manual ones.
Data read from the Setor dashboard on Oct 31, 2026. The 30-day result is the account's best 30 days.
