A great deal
Make a newsletter with your latest activities, discounts, and any offers that you have that can BE REALLY profitable for the user. This is the most important and popular thing — the great deal, something that is only available in the newsletter. Offer a discount on participation in a referral program for your brand.
Make it intimate and unique. Of course, you should not publish this offer on your profile, but make this offer to a thousand users in direct messages, to make it more exclusive and increase their interest.
Template:
Hey, I’m contacting you directly to offer a secret great deal.
Would you like to get a golden chain with 30% off?

Ultra-useful information
Sometimes your posts, with such valuable information, are not visible to all your Instagram followers, so it is better to duplicate it with a great mailout. And with a newsletter, you can reach all possible potential customers and grab their interest with your professionally made checklists, guides, or top advice on your topic.

Instagram newsletter templates for influencers
As for Instagram influencers, the newsletter is one of the most powerful tools for creating trust and direct communication with your potential follower or a future follower.
Lead magnet
The most popular reason for an Instagram influencer to make a newsletter is to share some REALLY useful and professional information that you don’t show on your account but want to use as a lead magnet. This could be a guide to some topic that will be fascinating to the user, or real testing results, etc. Send bulk direct messages with such precious information that will attract your users to your account immediately.

So, there are tons of reasons to use Instagram direct messages for your business, no matter whether you have an Instagram shop or just a beautiful Instagram profile that works as a blog. The only thing that you should not forget is to follow the limits that Instagram has for direct messages. This is the really IMPORTANT AND GENTLE thing that Instagram wants to control.
Here are the latest limitations on Instagram direct messages in 2022:
The older your Instagram account, the more direct messages you are allowed to send.
The normal amount to send is between 50-100 direct messages per day. For newer accounts it should be less – try to keep it to 20-50 maximum.
Of course, you can’t send all the daily limit within one hour. This will definitely cause a ban. 3-5 direct messages in an hour are ok, sending one message every 15 minutes.
Moreover, it is better to mix and make your newsletter text different every time to avoid ban for a spam. You can do randomization of texts right in the Direct messages tool. Can you follow all these limitations manually? Yes, it is possible for one or two days, and on the third day you’ll just throw it out of your normal life and forget. Don’t forget that you’ll need to find the users you’d like to message — all manually. Sounds frightening. Better to use a special tool for this goal. The most convenient and the greatest thing that we have for you is — an Automated Instagram Direct Messages Tool.
The service will do everything for you. It has a special algorithm that works exactly in the way that Instagram requires. It will make all the newsletters for you without any mistakes, following all Instagram’s limits.

With the automation tool, which is automatic and really accurate, you won’t get banned from Instagram.
What’s more, with the automated direct messages tool, you don’t need to move at all. You set up your newsletter, make some variations on its contents, set the targeting for users you’d like to reach, and that’s it. Everything will be done on time without you having to do anything else.
