Resource Sharing posts meet a core need for design communities: access to high-quality, relevant tools and information. By curating and sharing valuable resources, you position your community as a trusted hub, helping members stay ahead in a fast-moving industry. This approach also reduces the overwhelm of searching for new inspiration, making your group a go-to destination.
Psychologically, sharing resources encourages reciprocity. When members receive something useful, they are more likely to give back, whether through comments, feedback, or sharing their own finds. This builds a culture of generosity and continuous learning, which is especially important in design where trends evolve quickly. By highlighting practical benefits and addressing specific pain points, you make engagement easy and rewarding.

Start by choosing a template that matches the resource you want to share. Personalize the details, such as the name of the tool or article, and explain why it is relevant for your community. Always include a clear call to action, like asking for feedback or encouraging members to share their experiences. Rotate between different types of resources—tools, tutorials, case studies—to keep posts fresh and appealing to various interests. After posting, monitor replies and invite members to contribute their own resources, turning your community into an active knowledge-sharing space.
For all platforms, keep your resource introductions concise and visually appealing. Use a mix of short descriptions, links, and images to cater to different content preferences. Pin or highlight popular resources to make them easy to find. Encourage cross-platform sharing by adjusting formats for each channel, such as adding hashtags on Instagram or using polls on Slack.
Resource sharing involves posting tools, articles, templates, and references that help members learn, stay updated, and solve problems.
Aim for one to three resource posts per week, balancing frequency with quality and relevance to the community's needs.
Prioritize free or widely accessible resources, but occasionally mention premium options with clear notes about costs and value.
Include clear questions, calls to action, and invite feedback or resource suggestions from the community.
Yes, but ensure your resource truly benefits the community and avoid overly self-promotional posts.
Templates, tools, tutorials, case studies, and curated lists are highly valued, especially when they solve specific design challenges.
Choose resources that align with your community's interests, skill levels, and current topics of discussion.
