This or That prompts work because they lower the barrier for participation. Members do not need to craft long responses or have deep expertise to join in. Instead, they simply pick between two familiar options and optionally share why they chose it.
This format taps into the psychology of quick decision-making and playful competition. When people see simple, relatable choices, it triggers curiosity and a desire to compare their answers with others. This fosters a sense of community and makes even lurkers more likely to comment. Plus, lighthearted questions keep the mood fun and positive, making your Amazon FBA group a place members want to return to.
