Plan your content calendar and auto-post to Skool, Circle, or Mighty Networks
Encouraging members to recommend resources taps into the natural desire to help others and share expertise. When people feel their tips or favorite tools are valued, they are more likely to participate and return to the community. This content type also lowers barriers for participation since sharing a resource feels less intimidating than storytelling or debate.
Sharing resources also leads to rapid knowledge exchange, making the community more useful and relevant for both new and experienced travelers. Members not only discover new tools but also learn how others put them into practice. This creates a virtuous cycle of contribution and engagement, increasing trust and connection among members.
By prompting members to explain how and why they use a resource, these posts provide actionable insight, not just links. This deepens discussion, builds credibility, and helps the community become a trusted hub for travel advice.

Post these templates regularly to prompt members to share articles, apps, guides, or videos that have improved their travel experiences. Pin or highlight the best responses to encourage ongoing participation. Ask follow-up questions or prompt members to elaborate on how they use the resource. Rotate between broad and niche topics to appeal to all types of travelers.
These templates work across all platforms. Tailor your prompts to fit the community's format: use images or polls on visual platforms, or threaded replies for in-depth forums. Tag relevant topics or use hashtags to organize recommendations. Always encourage context when sharing resources for maximum value.
It's valuable to include both! While broader resources like hotel and flight aggregators are universally useful, niche recommendations (e.g., visa application agencies, local SIM vendors, or city transport apps) offer unique value to seasoned travelers and those visiting less common destinations. Consider alternating between broad and niche prompts or even creating themed 'resource weeks' for topics like visas, insurance, or connectivity.
Prompt your community to specify the date and source of regulatory updates they recommend, such as official government travel advisories or embassy websites. Include template fields for this information to promote accuracy, and consider periodic reminders to double-check the validity of such resources, since travel restrictions can change rapidly.
Use templates that ask members to specify the destination in the title or tags (e.g., 'Japan Rail Pass' or 'Cape Town Wine Tours'), and encourage them to mention why the resource is valuable for that region. This helps future travelers easily search for and find the most relevant recommendations for their itinerary.
Rotate templates that prompt for both budget-focused (e.g., hostel finders, low-cost airlines, discount card apps) and luxury-focused (e.g., boutique hotel platforms, private guides, premium transfer services) resources. You can also invite members to label their recommendations with price range indicators, so others can quickly assess suitability for their travel style.
Establish clear guidelines in your templates regarding affiliate links. You might require full disclosure of sponsored posts or disallow such links altogether, depending on your community's ethos. Encourage genuine, firsthand recommendations and prompt members to share personal experiences with the resource to maintain trust within the community.
Create targeted 'Recommend a Resource' posts for specialized travel scenarios, such as 'Best Resources for Solo Female Travelers' or 'Top Accessible Accommodation Finders.' Include template fields for members to specify how the resource addresses those unique needs, such as safety features, accessibility certifications, or community reviews focused on inclusivity.
