Direct message

A direct message (DM) is a private message sent through a social platform. Followers often send a DM to a brand when they have an inquiry.

By default, DMs from non-followers are blocked or filtered into a secondary inbox. However, brands who wish to use DMs to interact with customers can change their settings to receive DMs from anyone.
