How nutritionists and dietitians get replies, not blocks.

  1. 01

    Never comment on bodies

    Talk about their meals, their energy or their goal. Body comments feel invasive and get people to block you.

  2. 02

    Stay within your scope

    Keep advice in DMs general. Anything clinical belongs in a proper consultation.

  3. 03

    Target the curious

    People posting meal prep or gut health hashtags are already looking for better answers.

  4. 04

    Give one useful idea

    A simple swap or habit in your second message shows expertise without a hard sell.

Send these to hundreds of people improving their eating. Without typing one.

IG Outreach Pro finds people improving their eating by hashtag, by the followers of an account or from your own list, spins a different version of your template for each one, sends from your own account at the pace you set, and follows up until they answer.

Questions

What is spintax?

Spintax is a way of writing several versions of a message at once. Options go inside curly braces separated by a pipe, like {Hey|Hi|Hello}, and one is picked at random for each person. Placeholders like {firstname} fill in the recipient's details. IG Outreach Pro uses exactly this syntax.

Can I use these templates without the extension?

Yes. Pick one option from each set of braces and replace the placeholders by hand. The extension just does that for you automatically, for every person on your list, and follows up on schedule.

Will sending DMs get my Instagram account banned?

Nobody can promise it won't, and automated DMs conflict with Instagram's terms. IG Outreach Pro gives you Test Mode, Safe Start warm-up, an hourly cap, scheduled breaks and automatic opt-outs so you can send carefully. Start slow and read the send log.

Are these templates free for nutritionists and dietitians?

Completely. Copy them, edit them, use them however you like. No signup.
