Engage with others on topics of interest

Friday, July 24th, 2009

Doxmart aims to bring together people, knowledge and opportunities. To support this, the new Q & As service (accessed from the top menu) introduced this month enables you to:

  • Find questions that other members have posted. Simply enter your search terms to look for topics of interest. Soon you will be also be able to search by category.
  • Ask a question so it is made available for all other Doxmart members to answer. You can then award points to the best answers (more on this in a future blog). Members can also subscribe to your question and be updated if any answers are posted or the question is updated by you.
  • Keep a record of questions you have asked and the responses you have received.
  • Track the answers you have given to questions posted by others.

Make the most of this free service by engaging with the Doxmart community to gather information, seek help, discuss areas that are of interest to you, seek opinions or cause debate. Current topics in the Q& As include member netball.coach looking for ideas for netball training sessions and member management.trainer asking for views on a specific product.

So now you can tap into the vast amount of knowledge in the Doxmart Community or help others by sharing your expertise.

Plus, remember if there is a particular member you would like to contact you can invite them to join your network or use the messaging service to contact them directly.

Create opportunities by connecting with others

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Doxmart offers you the opportunity to leverage your knowledge to make money, create opportunities and collaborate with others to solve problems and achieve goals.

Now with ‘My Network Centre’ you can see who you are connected with (My Friends), who you have invited to connect (Pending Invitations), accept invitations to connect from others (Open Invitations) and who you have invited to connect but have not yet has a response from (Archived Invitations).

To find the Doxmart members you wish to connect with use the Member Search feature of Doxmart (Top menu). The search results page will have a list of members matching the keywords you enter, and each member will have a link allowing you to ‘Invite me to your network’. Simply click this link and follow the invitation process to invite other members to join your network of friends here on Doxmart.

Alternatively, you might like to add the author of a document you like to your network. To do this, view the author’s profile page by clicking on the author’s name from the document information page. Once you are viewing the author’s profile, you can follow the link on the ‘Network Invitations’ panel to invite them to join your network. This link is available anytime you view the profile page for a member who you haven’t invited to your network.

When you invite another Doxmart member to join your network, we give that member every opportunity to accept your invitation, including sending them reminders at different times after the initial invitation. If they still haven’t responded after 75 days, we archive the invitation so that you have a record of who you have invited to your network, even if the other member didn’t respond.

So to promote your expertise and how you can help others, take some time to build your connections within the Doxmart community.
