Explaining a tech dating workflowfrom @brodyautomates

[01]

Overview

The creator walks through a multi-step automated workflow he designed to streamline his dating life. He explains how the system scrapes data from sources like Instagram and Tinder, aggregates it, filters potential matches based on a 'hotness' score, and then automatically sends personalized messages across multiple platforms. The creator then details the system's success and failure handling, which includes CRM integration and notifications, before ending with a call-to-action for viewers to get the workflow.

Transcript

I built this workflow because I got tired of manually talking to women. How it works is you execute the worse, and then it scrapes all of the lead sources like Instagram, Tinder, Bumble. And then it puts all of these into a data aggregator and then puts them through a hotness filter. Basically, you can change the threshold of hotness. I usually like to keep mine above 7.5 ish. It has an email blast, Facebook Messenger blast, and Instagram best, basically sending out personalized DMs. Then it takes all of the data and analyzes the girl's responses and puts them into a failure handler. No, basically, if there is a failure, it'll give you a Slack alert basically saying that you failed and you didn't land the shotty. However, if it is a success, you'll get a Telegram message basically telling you that there's too much volume. And then it'll put this through a delivery better, and then it'll put all of the girls into the CRM. And then usually from tier, I like to do an SMS or marketing campaign or send them to a VSL landing page as well. So if you want the workflow, just comment Tier rank I'll send it to you for free. Let me know how this works.
