Mar 2, 2016 | Announcements, TESTIMONIALS
In “Eventzee Exposure” we look at testimonials from happy clients who have hosted their own Scavenger Hunts. Our users’ experience is very important to us, so when things go off without a hitch we want to cheer about it. If you’d be interested in sharing your Eventzee experience please reach out to eventzee@munzee.com.
Organization: Integrated Automotive Services
Event: Subaru Sales Training Event
Location: Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal, Canada
Event Breakdown:
IAE works with auto manufacturers for product releases and training staffs on how to successfully market their automobiles. They used Eventzee for their Subaru Drive Experience events across nine days in three different cities with QR Code Quizzes and photo scavenger hunts. The focus of IAE’s Drive Experiences is to put retail staff behind the wheel of the vehicle so they can experience the brand story first hand. Competitive product evaluations and in-depth experiential product training convert to real-world credibility on the showroom floor.
The QR Codes for the quizzes were printed in a workbook that attendees answered as the day went on. This offered the event hosts the ability to look at the comprehension statistics of the attendees and better evaluate the teaching methods. Eventzee also created custom survey polls for IAE so they could easily gather attendees opinions on various model types, and more. These polls were sent to all attendees using the Eventzee messaging system. They would then answer and live results were broadcast on a projector screen onsite.
Photo clues were also used to encourage interaction among attendees. By interacting with specific groups and locations users found a deeper engagement and retention of the goals of the event.
Check out the video from their event!
Testimonial:
“We believe that elevating the learning experience using gamification methods is extremely valuable for retention. Eventzee gave us a unique and simple way to incorporate gamification into our programming. During our automotive training programs, we were able to infuse scavenger-type searches, quizzes and additional elements (like photos and sharing) to deepen engagement and retention. You can see the video for our event here: http://integratedauto.com/
With a 97% participation rate, there was no question this approach was the way to go! The overall satisfaction results were excellent and the participants enjoyed their “fun” while learning and winning some prizes.”
– Judi Samuels, Manager, Experience Design, Integrated Automotive Experience

- Creativity- Capture a photo to showcase your creativity and fun at this event.

Feb 19, 2016 | Hunt Types
Scavenger hunts have always been a fun way to interact with others and support camaraderie, but we’ve moved past the limitations of pen and paper. Eventzee takes scavenger hunts to a whole new level by supporting worldwide events and new ways to interact with players. While Eventzee makes it easy to host your own scavenger hunt, it’s up to YOU to make it memorable. So if you’re considering putting on your own, here’s a few tips to get you started.
The goal of most scavenger hunts is to drive traffic to specific areas and get players to explore and while this holds true with Eventzee, we also encourage our clients to use our tools educationally. QR Code Quiz Clues are a unique feature that still push players to find a hidden code in the real world, but then take it a step further by testing their knowledge.
Creative Customization
Hosting a birthday party for your best friend? Planning a road trip? Surprising your parents for their wedding anniversary? QR Code quizzes are perfect for hosting a customized scavenger hunt to teach your friend’s and family about a specific subject- even if the subject is you! Create clues to test your friend’s knowledge of the Birthday girl, or plan out a road trip with quizzes about the history of geographical locations. The creativity it up to you!
Campus Queries
Tie your school’s campus tours an Eventzee GPS hunt with Quiz clues to teach new students about their new surroundings. Map out financial buildings, sports complexes and more important locations for your campus and see if they’re paying attention to the guides via quizzes.
Business Book Smarts
Work with a group of local businesses to sponsor Downtown scavenger hunts. Place QR Code Quizzes within each location and once players scan it, they’ll be prompted with trivia about the location. Did you know Jim, the manager at Jamaican Me Crazy Smoothie Shop is a retired green beret? How about that Jillian at the Quilt Shop practices welding in her free time? This offers a unique way for small business owners to interact with their customers.
Creating Quiz Clues
Setting up Quiz clues is easy. You’ll add QR Code clues like normal, but remember that your Clue Title and Description will lead the players to the hidden code. From there you’ll need to click the gear icon to enter the individual clue’s settings. Simply click on the “Quiz” section and choose the quiz type option. Eventzee quiz clues are all multiple choice for automatic approval processes, but you can add as many answers as you like.
Remember, your event is what you make it, but Eventzee is here to make it as easy on you as possible. To get a more in depth look at setting up Eventzee hunts or how to play Eventzee check out the following guides.
