To use these templates, simply copy and paste them into your community platform of choice. Post them regularly, such as at the start or end of the week, or after major team milestones. Encourage members to respond with their own gratitude moments and to support each other's posts with likes, comments, or follow-up questions. Rotate through the templates to keep the conversation fresh and inviting.
For all platforms, keep gratitude prompts brief and visually clear. Use simple, direct questions or statements. Encourage replies and reactions to build momentum. Pin or highlight especially positive threads to showcase community spirit.

For example, thank a rep for expertly handling objections or supporting a colleague during a tough negotiation. This encourages a culture of inclusive recognition and motivates all members, regardless of their current sales performance.
