Why You Need This Checklist

What if your course was selling itself while you slept — no sales calls, no copy-paste DMs, no chasing leads? If that sounds too good to be true, you might be doing course marketing the old way.

Here's the uncomfortable reality: audiences in 2026 can smell a sales pitch from a mile away. If you're still manually DMing people, sending the same link over and over, or relying on a long landing page to do the heavy lifting, you're creating friction — and friction kills conversions. Worse, every lead you don't capture is a lead you can't retarget. You're essentially leaving money on the table every single day your systems aren't automated.

Now picture this instead: someone comments a single word on your Instagram post, and within seconds they receive a warm, personalized DM — maybe even a voice note in your actual voice — that walks them straight toward your course or membership. Their email gets captured automatically. A follow-up message goes out if they don't click the link. And you? You're not even at your phone. That's the system Erin from Erin On Demand has built for her Ebrand Creator College, and it's generating thousands of leads without a single copy-paste moment.

Erin isn't theorizing here. She's been running these exact MiniChat automations inside her own business, moving from manually responding to hundreds — sometimes thousands — of DMs, to a fully automated pipeline that captures emails, nurtures leads, and converts followers into paying members. She's sharing the exact three-part system she uses, including the comment-to-DM trigger setup, how to add voice notes and video into your automations for that personal touch that sets you apart, and how to connect MiniChat directly to your email platform so every lead lands in your list automatically.

This PDF checklist distills every actionable step from Erin's tutorial into a clean, follow-along guide you can implement today. You'll know exactly which MiniChat settings to toggle, which trigger words to choose, how to structure your DM sequence, and how to integrate your email platform — no guesswork, no rewatching the video fifteen times.

If you're a course creator, membership owner, or digital product seller ready to stop doing things manually and start building a system that works for you around the clock, this checklist is your starting point. Work through it once, get your automations live, and let the system do what Erin's has been doing for her — converting strangers into students, automatically.
