Add a free opening message to a script
Create a free first template with a short manually written opening message.
Create an opening step as a regular template placed first in the script. There is no separate Introduction Messages setting in the current editor. You need the Manage templates permission.
Create the opening template
-
Select a creator, open CRM > Scripts, and select the script.
-
Choose Add template and enter a clear Template Name.
-
Under Message, turn off AI Mode and write a short opening message.
-
Leave Pricing as Free. Media is optional for this manually written free template.
-
Choose Create Template.
-
Drag the new template to position 1 so it is the first step.
Check the script before use
-
If you later turn on AI Mode for this template, attach at least one media item.
-
If the full script is available to AI, the script must still meet the readiness guidance shown in Scripts, including usable templates and the total-price minimum displayed for that creator.
-
Keep the opening concise and review how it fits the next step. No specific wording or number of opening steps guarantees a result.
