Use the templates as conversation starters during quiet periods to revive engagement.
On all platforms, make your scenario posts visually appealing by pairing them with Canva-made graphics or branded visuals. Use clear language and direct questions to lower participation barriers. Pin especially fun or popular scenarios to increase visibility. Respond promptly to early replies to build momentum.
Pose scenario-based questions that encourage members to think creatively about Canva's advanced features.

This approach addresses real Canva workflow challenges and encourages knowledge sharing.
