  • create a clean bridge from content engagement to lead capture

How the workflow should run

  2. send the right DM opener with context
  3. capture the next detail or preferred next step
  4. route the conversation based on offer, urgency, or location

Where human judgment still matters

the team steps in when the conversation moves from interest into objection handling or closing
