Setterr for business coaches
The founder DMed at midnight. Setterr qualified them and booked the strategy call.
Business-coaching DMs are sceptical by default: the lead is a founder, they've heard every pitch, and they want proof you understand their stage. Setterr answers with your positioning, asks the questions that establish stage and urgency, and books strategy calls only with founders who fit.
The DM you didn't have to answer
Sunday, 11:48 PM
do you work with agencies stuck at 30k/mo? feels like I've hit a ceiling
Yes — the 30k plateau is the most common place my clients come in. Two quick ones: is the ceiling more leads, delivery capacity, or you being in every deal? And how many people are on the team?
me in every deal. team of 4
Then it's a systems problem, not a marketing one, and that's the work. Strategy calls are 30 minutes — I'll tell you straight if it's a fit. Tuesday 10:00 or Wednesday 3:00? [booking link]

Answered from your own brief, qualified the way you would, booked only when it fit — and logged, so you can see it happened.
How it works
- Sign in with Instagram through Meta's official login — no password sharing, no gray-area tools.
- It learns how you answer. Setterr imports up to 90 days of your DMs, booked-first, infers a brief, and you review it.
- Drafts first, then autopilot. Approve replies until you trust it, then flip the switch — with one-click takeover on any thread.
Built for how business coaches book
- Answers with your positioning — Learned from how you actually talk to founders, not a generic coach persona.
- Qualifies on stage and urgency — Revenue band, team size, the real constraint — worked into conversation.
- Books strategy calls — Calendly natively or any link, offered once fit is clear.
- Handles the sceptic — Objections like 'I've done coaching before' get your reply, not a script.
- Follows up on your timeline — 'Ask me after our launch' goes out after their launch.
- You stay in control — Draft mode first, one-click takeover, hot-lead push alerts.

Frequently asked
Can it qualify on revenue without sounding intrusive?
Yes, when it's framed around them: 'roughly where's revenue now, so I know which version of this applies?' — learned from your own conversations where you've asked it well.
What if the founder wants a proposal in DMs?
It explains that the strategy call is where you scope, and books it. High-ticket work isn't closed over text; the DM's job is the call.
Does it work for masterminds and cohorts as well as 1:1?
Yes — each offer lives in your playbook with its own criteria and booking link.
Will it embarrass me with a sophisticated lead?
It starts in draft mode so you approve replies until you trust it, and it hands anything unusual to you with a push alert.
