FAQ
How can restaurants use Facebook automation?▾
Restaurants use Facebook automation to instantly reply to menu enquiries, send table booking links, share daily specials, take delivery order queries, and answer common questions — all via Messenger, 24/7, without any staff intervention.
Can I automate table bookings through Facebook Messenger?▾
Yes. Set a keyword like BOOK or TABLE on your posts and stories. When a customer comments or DMs the keyword, they instantly receive your booking link or a form to fill in their date and party size.
Does Facebook automation work for food delivery businesses?▾
Yes. Cloud kitchens and delivery-only restaurants can set keywords like ORDER, MENU, or PRICE to automatically send their menu PDF, order link (Swiggy, Zomato, or direct), and delivery timings to every enquirer.
How much does Facebook automation for restaurants cost?▾
The free plan handles 1,000 Messenger DMs per month — enough for small cafes. The Starter plan at ₹99/month gives 15,000 DMs and 15 automations. Pro at ₹299/month is unlimited and suits high-volume restaurants.
Can I use Facebook automation to promote daily specials?▾
Yes. Use the broadcast feature to send daily specials, weekend offers, or event menus to all your Messenger subscribers at once. Messenger broadcasts achieve ~98% open rates vs ~20% for email.
