Tips: Writing an Offer

Here’s how to write a great knowledge Request:

➔  Include a descriptive title Be sure that it explains the scope—and the specifics—of what you’re hoping to learn. (Tip: Begin your title with the word, “How.”) Example #1 (less good): “Business Mentorship” Example #2 (better!): “How to give effective business mentoring”

➔  Describe what you would like to know Include context that can help people meet your Request more effectively. For instance, are you hoping to learn about this topic because it relates to an upcoming project?

➔  Tag any topic related to your request So it’s easily searchable.
