I realize that what a whole lot of people need is an ask.
You can't just assume they will try it. You have to ask them. It's as though asking them gives them an incentive to do it.
This isn't a bad thing, by the way -- just human behaviour.
Someone asked me to do something today, and I did it because they asked. If not for the ask, I wouldn't have done it.
