Story conversations
Stories don’t stay up for long. Reply while they do.
A beauty tutorial creates very specific questions: which shade, which product, and where to find it.
Linkar can send the featured product destination after a requested comment or Story reply. Prepare factual product information and let your team handle suitability questions that need a personal answer. A customer’s Story mention can have a separate, simple thank-you journey.
3 step process
From a Story to a fitting reply.
Start with one clear request. Build the answer around the person who sent it.
Prepare the product destinations
Check the tutorial’s item list and links. Confirm shade and product names match the content, including older posts that remain active.
Choose the interaction
Use comments for a Reel request or Story replies for a temporary offer. Keep mention acknowledgements separate from sales replies.
Test a customer’s route
Open the linked products in the Instagram browser. Verify the reply does not imply a shade consultation or product recommendation your team has not provided.
Why it helps
Short-lived Stories, useful answers.
Story replies and mentions get a fitting answer while the moment is still fresh.
Connect the look to its products
Use distinct words or post-specific campaigns for different looks. A viewer should reach the products in that tutorial rather than a broad catalogue.
Point to maintained details
Send the page containing shade options, ingredients, and current availability. Do not improvise suitability or safety claims in a prepared reply.
Acknowledge customer mentions
Thank people for sharing your brand in a supported Story mention. Ask permission separately if you want to reuse their content.

Before you switch it on
Keep factual product information central
Use the maintained product page for ingredients, availability, and instructions. Give sensitive or personal suitability questions to your team rather than a generic keyword flow. If a customer tags you, begin with a thank-you and obtain permission before reposting; a mention is not automatic content reuse consent.
Campaign notes
Choose the right Story interaction
A Story reply is a response to your own Story. A Story mention arrives when another person includes your account in theirs. These interactions deserve separate triggers and wording. Use a specific request word for an offer, and a short acknowledgement for a mention. Supported event availability can depend on account and privacy context.
Stories and highlights can outlive a promotion. Keep the offer destination current and remove expired instructions. A mention does not automatically establish permission to reuse a customer’s content; ask and review that separately. Test from another account, including any general DM flows that may also match the incoming interaction.
Questions, answered.
Short answers about accounts, plans and setup. If your question is not covered here, our support team can help.
Can Linkar give personalised skin advice?
No. These journeys share the information you prepare and connect people to your team. Personal suitability or health-related questions need appropriate qualified guidance, not a canned product message.
Which account do I need?
Connect an Instagram professional account, either Business or Creator. Check the capabilities available to that account and use a supported incoming interaction. Personal Instagram accounts are not supported for these automation journeys.
