How to Get Unlimited FREE Leads from Instagram (100% Automated System)


The End of Expensive Leads and Wasted Ad Spend 💸

Tired of paying for bad leads or burning cash on ads that don't convert? What if you could get unlimited leads from Instagram in any niche and any city, completely free and fully automated?

In this guide, I'll show you the exact system my clients use to book dozens of meetings every week without cold calling and without spending a dime on ads. This is perfect for agencies, freelancers, and business owners looking to grow their client base without the usual hefty marketing costs.

The best part? This entire process runs on autopilot once you set it up. And I'm giving you all the templates and blueprints you need to implement this system today! 🎁

The System Overview: How It All Works 🧩

Here's what our automated lead generation system will do:

  1. Use Google to search for Instagram profiles in your target niche and location (e.g., "Miami Dentists")

  2. Find profiles that have business email addresses listed

  3. Extract and format the leads with their contact information

  4. Add them to a spreadsheet or CRM

  5. Send personalized email sequences to pitch your product or service

  6. Track responses and manage the sales process

The best part? Once set up, this system requires ZERO ongoing work from you. It's truly "set it and forget it" lead generation! 🤖

Step 1: Setting Up Make.com (The Automation Hub) ⚙️

The first tool we need is Make.com (formerly Integromat), which will be the central hub that connects all our tools together.

Make is a no-code visual automation builder that makes creating complex workflows incredibly simple. Think of it as the "command center" for our lead generation system.

Here's how to set it up:

  1. Sign up for Make using this link to get one month free on the Pro plan

  2. Log in and go to "Scenarios"

  3. Click "Create New Scenario"

  4. Click the three dots and select "Import Blueprint"

  5. Download and import my free blueprint from the description

Once imported, you'll see a visual workflow that looks something like this:

Step 2: Setting Up SerpAPI (The Google Scraper) 🔍

Next, we need to set up SerpAPI, which will allow our automation to search Google and extract information.

Here's how to get started:

  1. Sign up for SerpAPI using this link

  2. After signing up, go to your dashboard and copy your API key

  3. Back in Make, click on the first module in your scenario

  4. Replace the API key field with your own key

  5. Save the module

SerpAPI gives you 100 searches per month for free, which is plenty to test this system. If you need more capacity, you can always upgrade later.

Step 3: Configuring Your Search Parameters 🎯

Now we need to tell our automation what kind of leads we want to find. This is where you'll customize the system for your specific business needs.

In your Make scenario, find the SerpAPI module and modify these parameters:

  1. Target Niche/Location: Change "lawyer Miami" to whatever niche and location you want to target (e.g., "dentist New York" or "graphic designer Chicago")

  2. Search Volume: Set how many pages of Google results you want to scrape:

    • The default setting repeats 10 times, scraping 10 pages (approximately 100 results)

    • If you want more leads, you can increase this number

    • If you want to start from a different page (e.g., page 11), change the initial value

That's it! The system is now configured to find your specific target audience.

Step 4: Processing the Data with AI (ChatGPT) 🧠

Our system uses AI to process the raw data and extract usable contact information. This is what makes our approach so much more efficient than manual methods.

To set up the AI component:

  1. Create an account at platform.openai.com if you don't have one

  2. Go to Settings → API Keys

  3. Generate a new secret key

  4. Copy your Organization ID

  5. Add at least $5-10 to your account (this will last a long time)

  6. In Make, find the ChatGPT module and connect your account

The AI will automatically extract:

  • First name

  • Last name

  • Email address

  • Company name

  • Location

  • Service type

  • Instagram URL

Step 5: Deciding Where to Send Your Leads 📋

Now you need to decide what to do with all these amazing leads! There are three main options:

Option 1: Google Sheets

This is the simplest approach. Create a Google Sheet with columns matching our extracted data (First Name, Last Name, Email, etc.) and connect it to your Make scenario.

Option 2: Gmail

If you just want to send one-off emails, you can connect your Gmail account and have leads automatically emailed. However, this doesn't allow for tracking or follow-up sequences.

Option 3: CRM (Recommended) 🌟

This is the most powerful option and what I recommend for serious results. Using a CRM like GoHighLevel allows you to:

  • Organize your leads

  • Send multi-step email sequences

  • Track responses

  • Manage deals in a sales pipeline

  • Create websites, chatbots, and other assets to sell to these leads

Let's focus on setting up the CRM option, as it provides the complete solution.

Step 6: Setting Up GoHighLevel (The All-in-One CRM) 💼

GoHighLevel is a game-changer for this system because it not only manages your leads but also gives you the tools to sell to them.

Here's what to do:

1. Sign up for GoHighLevel using this link to get a 30-day extended trial

2. Create a sub-account for your business

3. Import the provided snapshots (you'll receive these via email if you sign up through my link)

4. In your sub-account, go to Actions → Load Snapshot → select my snapshot

5. Select all the components to import (tags, pipelines, workflows, custom values)

6. Back in Make, connect your GoHighLevel account

The imported automation in GoHighLevel will:

  • Tag leads as "IG Leads"

  • Add them to your sales pipeline

  • Send a series of follow-up emails automatically

  • Track who opens and responds to your emails

Step 7: Customizing Your Email Sequence 📧

The imported automation includes a pre-written email sequence designed to offer website creation services. Here's how the sequence works:

Email 1 (Sent immediately): Subject: "I made a new site. Can I share it?" This email uses a clever angle: "Your site looks great, but I'm guessing you don't get a lot of leads. I went ahead and set you up a new homepage and some AI-powered lead conversion tools that'll get you more results. Want to see it?"

Email 2 (Sent 2 days later if Email 1 isn't opened): Subject: "Hey, I made this thing for you real quick" A follow-up to grab attention from those who missed the first email.

Email 3 (Sent 3 days after Email 2 if it isn't opened): A final attempt to engage the lead.

To customize these emails with your information:

  1. Go to Settings → Custom Values

  2. Edit the "business_name" value and enter your business name

  3. Edit the "your_name" value and enter your name

All emails will now be automatically personalized both for you and for each recipient (using their first name and company name).

Step 8: Creating Assets to Sell with GoHighLevel 🏗️

Now for the magic part! When leads respond to your emails, you'll need to quickly create something to show them. GoHighLevel makes this incredibly easy:

Creating a Demo Website in Seconds:

  1. Go to Sites → Funnels → New Funnel → Funnel with AI

  2. Enter the client's business name and niche

  3. Generate the site (takes about 10 seconds)

  4. Record a quick Loom video showing what you've created

Creating an AI Chatbot:

  1. Go to AI Agents

  2. Enter the client's website URL

  3. Click "Get Data" to train the bot on their existing content

  4. Test the bot with a few questions

  5. Show the client how it can capture leads 24/7

GoHighLevel also lets you create voice bots that answer phone calls, automated email campaigns, review management systems, and much more.

Step 9: Running Your Automation 🚀

With everything set up, it's time to run your automation:

  1. In Make, change your scenario from "Draft" to "Published"

  2. Hit "Run Once" to test or set a schedule for regular running

  3. Watch as leads automatically flow into your CRM

  4. Focus on responding to interested prospects and closing deals!

The Money-Making Potential 💰

Let's talk about the potential revenue from this system:

  1. Software Access: Charge clients $100-300/month for access to the GoHighLevel sub-account

  2. Website Creation: Charge $1,000-3,000 for the website you created in seconds

  3. Website Maintenance: Add $250-500/month for ongoing updates

  4. AI Chatbot/Voice Bot: Charge $500/month (think about the cost of a human employee!)

  5. Google Review Management: Another $100-200/month service

  6. Email Marketing: $300-500/month for campaign management

With GoHighLevel's $97/month plan, you get three sub-accounts. This means you can manage yourself and two clients. With the $297/month plan, you get unlimited sub-accounts, perfect for scaling your agency!

Even if you close just 0.1% of the leads this system generates, you can create a thriving business with mostly passive income.

Final Thoughts: The Power of Automation ⚡

This system represents the future of lead generation and business growth. Instead of spending thousands on ads or countless hours cold calling, you're leveraging automation and AI to:

  1. Find highly targeted leads for free

  2. Contact them with personalized messages

  3. Create valuable assets to sell them

  4. Manage the entire process in one place

The best part? Once set up, it runs on autopilot while you focus on closing deals and growing your business.

Remember, this system works for ANY niche. Just change the search parameters to target different industries and locations:

  • Roofers in Houston

  • Wedding photographers in Chicago

  • Real estate agents in Miami

  • Fitness trainers in Los Angeles

The possibilities are endless!
