Turn on SMS Notifications to Be Alerted When Your KURIOs Receive Replies
First head over to My Account to enter your phone number so we know where to send your alerts. Next, turn on the Receive SMS notifications feature when you create your KURIO. If you want to turn this feature on after you have already posted your KURIO, you can turn it on by tapping the red timer, opening the Edit tab from the drop-down menu and then turning on Receive SMS notifications.
Activate Daily Digest Emails
Make sure the option to Receive Daily Digest emails is turned on in the My Account tab. Once this feature is activated, you’ll receive an email alerting you to pending notifications of the day’s activity in your KURIO Crowd. This includes new Connection Requests, Archived KURIOs that have been shared with you, Public KURIOs that have been posted to your Connections’ profiles and responses to your own KURIOs. We promise not to spam you! You’ll only receive the digest email if you actually have pending notifications.
Complete Your Profile and Add a Picture
Make sure to complete your profile and add a fabulous picture of yourself! The information you share on your profile will provide a helpful snapshot of who you are to new KURIO Connections. While you aren’t required to include a picture, people like being able to see who they are interacting with as it lends a sense of authenticity and a more personal touch to the interactions.
Be Creative with Your Bio
You can be creative with your bio by using it to provide a bit of background about yourself or as status update feature (i.e. Looking for a graphic designer / Interested in transitioning from finance to fashion). You can also use your bio to announce exciting milestones like product launches or professional transitions.
Post Public KURIOs
KURIO is all about the transparent sharing of information and opportunities. To that end, we encourage you to post Public KURIOs so that participants on your KURIO thread can all benefit from the information gathered and shared. Posting Public KURIOs also ensures that all of your KURIO Connections will be notified of your post, thereby increasing the chance you’ll receive the piece of information you need or the introduction you’re looking for. Of course, if you are looking to change jobs or need advice on a sensitive topic, feel free to post a Private KURIO which will be visible only to the KURIO Connections to whom you send the post.
