Tips for Success

You’ve done the first step, signing up for Walker Tracker. Nice job! Now, it’s time to get folks excited for your challenge and make sure you keep them motivated throughout the wellness journey. 

• Communicate, Communicate, Communicate! Admins who send out regular communications throughout their challenge see higher engagement and retention. We made it easy for you with a variety of communication templates available in the Walker Tracker Communications Book. 
• Help your members get the help they need. Direct your members to the Walker Tracker support site, and share the Member FAQs and video user guides.
• Promote the social features to keep members engaged and motivated. Encourage members to post photo and journal entries, as well as comment on each other’s entries and in the challenge discussion boards. Prompt members with a question in the discussion board, like “How are you staying active during this challenge?”
• Awarding members for their participation greatly increases the participation in your program! To encourage honesty and lower frustrations, keep prizes small but desirable. Here are some suggestions for incentive criteria.
• Finally, don't forget to have fun!
