Hey everyone, if any of you are doing Instagram DMs as outbound, how do you warm up accounts? I don't plan on buying them but creating the gmail from scratch and warming them up. The goal is to have 5 accounts running at limit which from what I've seen is 25 DMs/day. The online resources kind of say different methods. Do I really need to use proxies and vpns or could I do it lean, 5 accounts sending manually every day? Would love your input!

Here's the context. Most agency owners chasing new clients are solving the wrong problem. Not because clients don't matter — but because the fastest money in your agency almost never comes from new clients. It comes from what you already have and haven't properly used yet. I built myself a tool that looks at an agency's numbers and tells me exactly where the biggest untapped revenue sits — and which part of your business to focus on first to extract it. Different agencies have different levers. The tool finds yours. I've since adapted it so that other agency owners can quickly find their own source of biggest untapped revenue. I made it free, anonymous, and available to any agency owner who wants to use it. No sign-up. You input a few numbers, and you get the result. Before I launch it, I need to know which name makes you want to click. Vote below — I'll actually use the winning name, so thank you in advance.
