Finding it hard to keep your personal style community active and resourceful? Invite members to share their favorite articles, tools, or inspiration with our Recommend a Resource templates. These ready-to-use prompts make it easy to spark valuable conversations and collective learning.
Plan your content calendar and auto-post to Skool, Circle, or Mighty Networks
Recommendation posts tap into the natural desire to help others and showcase personal expertise. When members share resources, they feel valued and become more invested in the community, while others benefit from fresh ideas and practical solutions.
Encouraging resource recommendations creates a culture of generosity and continuous learning. It lowers the barrier for participation, since members only need to share what has worked for them, and it helps build trust as members see real, tested suggestions from their peers.
This approach also boosts engagement by making everyone feel like both a contributor and a recipient. Over time, your community becomes a go-to hub for the latest and most useful personal style resources.

Choose a template that fits your community's tone and upcoming conversations. Post it as a standalone thread, in weekly roundups, or as a comment prompt under relevant discussions. Encourage members to describe why the resource is helpful and how they use it in their style journey. Pin or highlight top recommendations to create an ongoing resource library for your community.
These templates are effective on all platforms. For forums, use them to kick off new threads or resource roundups. On social media, pair prompts with hashtags like #StyleResource or #ShareYourFind. In group chats, keep prompts concise and encourage quick replies. Always include a call to action asking for links or personal experiences.
When using these templates, segment your recommendations based on common style archetypes within your community. For instance, you might curate separate lists for minimalist wardrobes (clean lines, neutral palettes) versus maximalist styles (bold prints, eclectic layering). Tag resources with relevant aesthetics so members can easily find advice suited to their personal taste.
Consider your community’s main interests. If members frequently seek capsule wardrobe advice or foundational pieces, prioritize resources for high-quality basics. For more trend-driven groups, highlight statement pieces or seasonal must-haves. Use the template’s customizable fields to clarify whether a resource is a classic staple or on-trend item, and explain how it fits into various personal style journeys.
Include a dedicated section in your recommendation post for ethical or sustainable credentials, such as eco-friendly fabrics or transparent supply chains. Use industry-specific tags like 'slow fashion' or 'upcycled materials' to signal these qualities, and link to further information so members can make informed style decisions.
Leverage template fields to specify which body shapes or fit concerns a resource addresses—like petite-friendly pants, plus-size blazer brands, or adaptive clothing for accessibility needs. You can also invite members to share their own fit experiences with each resource, creating a feedback loop specifically relevant to style and sizing challenges.
Break down resource recommendations by trend level, such as 'Intro to Color Blocking' or 'Advanced Layering Techniques.' Include beginner-friendly resources alongside more advanced or avant-garde ideas, and offer styling tips that bridge the gap. Encourage members to try one new resource at a time and share their results in follow-up threads.
Acknowledge that personal style is subjective and use template prompts to frame recommendations as suggestions rather than endorsements. Invite members to share their own experiences (positive or negative) with the resource, and moderate discussions to keep feedback constructive. Consider polls or style challenges to engage both fans and skeptics of polarizing items.
