Has anyone tried this IG tactic to get new fans?

Hey y'all! recently I have been doing this strategy where I dm potential future fans of my music. This is how it works:

Go find a similar artists page and find their most recent post.
Go thru the comment section find people who have commented
Send each person a DM message (DM Image attached)

Now the content of the DM is important. Since this is a cold audience who I'm reaching out to I mak sure to make this message super friendly and address each person by name.

I also state that this is not spam in a funny way to start so that they are more likely to read.

After that I let em know the song I'm promoting and what types of vibes it gives off to keep them enticed.

Then I go into more detail about the song and try to make it relatable by tying in emotions and life experiences.

Finally I close it off by letting them know that I would appreciate if they listen and if they don't that's okay so they I don't put pressure on them.

I also put in my CTA for them to follow and give them a reason why.

I end it with a thank you for taking the time to read.

LET ME BE TRANSPARENT

Some people don't reply at all.

Some reply and listen but I never hear from them again.

BUT SOME LOVE IT AND MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW ON IG

and that's enough for me to continue.

COUPLE TIPS

So that I don't get burnt out I only do 5 dms a day. This helps me be consistent cuz it's not overwhelming

Once I make the Dm I save a copy in my notes so all I have to do is copy it and change the person's name which saves so much time 👌🏽

If you have any recommendations I'm open for it but I'd thought it share!

Much love 🤘🏽
