Building Facebook Automation System
Practical, Applicable, No Fluff
Facebook automation works best when it’s structured as a funnel: capturing engagement, managing conversations, retargeting, and converting leads. Using the iSlash AI Facebook Automation System, you can create a fully connected, end-to-end workflow.
Here’s the clear sequence for setting up a Facebook automation system that captures, nurtures, and converts leads across Page, Group, Reels, and Stories.
Step 1: Connect Your Facebook Page to iSlash AI
Integration unlocks the entire automation ecosystem. Without proper integration, your automation cannot response to comments, trigger replies, or capture leads from Reels, Stories, Groups, or Ads.
Step-by-Step Guide:
Logon to iSlash AI Platform at https://app.islash.io/
Go to Settings, go to Channels and click on "+" to create a new channel.
Rename to "Facebook", then under the Platform section, select "Facebook" and click Save.
Click Continue with Facebook and complete the steps.
An external window by Meta will pop up. You will either be required to log in to your Facebook account, or simply click “Continue as [Your Facebook Name]”.
Grant permission to iSlash AI Platform by clicking “Done”.

Step 2: Activate Post Comment Auto-Engagement
Comments are a key visibility signal. Ignoring them reduces reach and misses high-quality leads. This setup automatically responds to comments and triggers Messenger conversations, working together with the channel algorithm to boost post organic reach, hence boosting visibility.
Automation actions:
Auto-reply publicly to trigger more comments
Auto-DM the commenter
Tag or segment the user for follow-up

Step 3: Set Up Your No-Code AI Agents to Automate Responses
Immediate responses improve conversion rates. Automation ensures your brand stays responsive 24/7. This setup enable automated responses on Facebook to handle FAQs, lead qualification, and product questions instantly.
Features of No-Code AI Agents:
Answer product/service queries
Share pricing, availability, or next steps
Ask qualifying questions
Hand over to your team when needed
Step 4: Retarget Engaged Users with Messenger Broadcast
Messenger broadcasts have higher open rates than email and require zero ad spend. They strengthen mid-funnel nurture without extra effort. This setup sends targeted follow-ups to users who previously interacted with you, keeping them warm and engaged.
You can broadcast:
New promotions
Booking reminders
Product updates
Waitlist notifications
Helpful content
Abandoned enquiry follow-ups
High visibility + no ad budget needed.
Step 5: Integrate Conversion Tools and Meta Conversions API
Frictionless actions in Messenger increase completed bookings, sales, and coupon redemptions. Meta Conversions API ensures accurate tracking and better ad optimisation. This setup streamlines lead-to-action conversion and improves ad performance.
What to do now:
Add booking links, payment links, and e-coupons inside chat flows
Connect iSlash AI to Meta Conversions API (CAPI) for:
Accurate conversion data back to Meta
Stronger retargeting audiences
Improved ad performance and ROAS

Step 6: Monitor, Optimise, and Expand Your Funnel

Every 2 weeks:
Check which posts triggered the most DMs
Identify the top conversion source (Page / Group / Reels / Stories)
Improve content and AI reply flows based on real conversations
