Quest Design Best Practices

From our successful restaurant partners:

DO:

• Create multi-visit quests to build habits
• Offer exclusive rewards unavailable elsewhere
• Design quests that showcase your specialties
• Make social/group quests for virality
• Update quests seasonally to maintain interest

DON'T:

• Make quests too difficult or expensive
• Offer generic percentage discounts only
• Require purchases hunters wouldn't normally make
• Forget to train staff about quest rewards
