Custom Questions & Data

Waivers are fully customisable for your needs. Add branding, collect digital signatures and even ‘sign for minors’. Whatever data you need to power your business, collect it with Buzzshot.

If you want to register players before they even arrive at your venue you can send email invites manually or integrate a popular booking system (Ie. Bookeo, Checkfront, Digitickets, Fareharbor, Resova, Xola, etc).

Automations

Automated marketing for escape rooms

Create actions, triggers and automations for personalised promotions, reminders and experiential engagement.

Triggers

Automations allow you to create sequences of actions that happen in response to triggers that you set. You can use them to create automated marketing messages, pre-game reminders and many other things. A Trigger might be something like "group completed" or "just played room X" or "it's the player's birthday".

Actions

Actions can be things like "send an email" or "send reminder" or "add a tag". You can apply time Delays or even connect Actions together and they'll happen one after the other, or use Conditions to split things out and do one list of Actions if a condition is true and another list of Actions if it's not.

Scalability

Automations can be set up for pre and post-game engagement, for players or staff, to achieve truly experiential game narratives, game-changing sequence marketing and scalable business success!

With Buzzshot your staff and operations are prepared for business growth and streamlined ready for increasing player numbers.

Escape room owners and Game Masters tend to discover Buzzshot through recommendations on industry forums or when hunting for waiver software or team photo app's online but then during a Buzzshot demo and free trial often realise that Buzzshot is actually the most advanced end-to-end customer satisfaction software that they’ve been dreaming of, packed full of valuable features and potential for their business.

Yes, Buzzshot is designed to run on multiple devices and be reliable even when your internet isn't. Buzzshot is the only system of its kind to have native apps for smartphones and tablets (both Android and Apple devices) as well a web-based Business Dashboard. This all means that Buzzshot is the only waiver and team photo system that won’t lose your player data or photos if your escape room wifi drops! This level of reliability is just one reason why many business owners choose Buzzshot above all other systems. To further explain:

  1. The Buzzshot app can be installed on to smartphones and tablets (Apple and Android) to provide a professional customer-facing check-in for players and to make the collection of game data and team photos painless for your Game Masters. Buzzshot even provides a Kiosk Mode and touchless check-in via QR Code to suit your unique business workflow needs.
  2. In addition to the Buzzshot app, the Buzzshot Business Dashboard provides you and your staff real-time business data, analytics and performance stats and can be accessed on any device with a web-browser. The Business Dashboard is most often used by your staff at reception or behind the scenes to manager your escape room business day to day.

We get it! Demos are often just disguised sales pitches. But rest assured, that's not our style.

When you book a Buzzshot demo, it's not about selling. We genuinely want to understand your business, so we can tailor our software to match your unique needs. We're all about delivering real value to you.

During the demo, we'll take the time to learn about your workflows, challenges, and goals. We'll then customise your account, fine-tuning our features and settings to fit your requirements.

No unexpected charges. You choose your subscription level and the cost is always clear at the point of purchase. All Buzzshot subscriptions are monthly so there's no long term commitment either. All Buzzshot subscription levels include our full suite of features, and the price even includes the cost of sending your players SMS messages.

We understand the escape room industry is seasonal and unpredictable so you have full control to upgrade or downgrade your own subscription whenever you need to in your Business Dashboard. If you happen to have an unexpectedly busy month one month and go over your player limit, no problem, we’ll congratulate you on your surprisingly busy month and we’ll cover the extra for free that month. If you’re going over your limit consecutively you’ll see notifications to upgrade, please.

In addition to our full suite of features, an active Buzzshot subscription includes the ability to send up to 20,000 Broadcast Emails per year for free. Our ‘Broadcast Emails’ feature is specifically designed for businesses that want to send a regular marketing or newsletter campaign email to all their mailing list(s). For example, if you have a mailing list of 5,000 players you could send everyone a broadcast email once a month for four months without needing to purchase more (Ie. a mailing list of 5,000 people x 4 broadcast emails each = 20,000 broadcast emails). If you wish to purchase more it costs just US$25/month for up to 20,000 sends each month.

You might be surprised to learn:

  1. Buzzshot is the only system of its kind to have native apps for smartphones and tablets (both Android and Apple devices) as well a web-based Business Dashboard.

  2. Buzzshot has more features and multiple workflows to suit your unique business and staff needs. You can use Buzzshot to collect player details and digital signatures upon arrival plus so much more. Our Kiosk Mode is perfect for your reception or foyer, or your Game Masters can host a more personable check-in using the Buzzshot app on a smartphone or tablet. Players can even check-in and sign their waiver by scanning a QR Code on their own smartphones! Basically, Buzzshot is designed to be flexible and scalable for your growing needs. We even integrate with popular booking systems to further automate things.
  3. Buzzshot is the only system that can automate professional-grade Photoshop skills and effects. Instantly create team photos that your players want to share, with colour adjustment layers and variable content including team names, room specific graphics, escape times, and even different win / lose states! You can even print out and sell your photos as Souvenirs! Perhaps most importantly, Buzzshot is the only system that previews you photo overlay as you are taking the photo so you never risk losing your players behind frames or graphics.
  4. Buzzshot has powerful experiential messaging with Email and SMS so you can keep the narrative and excitement going even after the game. Our Advanced Email Editor ensures your email communication and player follow-ups are on-brand and fully customisable. A personal ‘thank you’ from the Games Master to encourage more personal reviews, or an email narrative that continues the story? You decide!
  5. Buzzshot saves you and your staff a ton of time in many different ways. One of our most popular time-saving features is the ‘Review Monitor’. Buzzshot doesn’t just encourage players to leave more reviews, you and your staff will be able to see a full overview of all reviews from Tripadvisor, Facebook, Google, Morty and more, all in one place. No more wasted time having to regularly go off and visit all your separate review sites because everything is available in your Review Monitor.

We hope that for most of our customers Buzzshot Broadcast Emails are cheaper, more convenient and easier to use than any other email marketing tools you might already be paying for.

A simple interface for complex multi room/game bookings, built for HR managers and administrators to organise their own team building reservation or party – it’s their event dashboard!

Real-time data just how you need it!
  9. Buzzshot provides you with a complete Business Dashboard of your business data, analytics and performance stats available at a glance, all searchable and exportable. Escape room owners and staff might refer to it as a CRM system (Customer Relationship Management) helping organise bookings, build customer relationships and streamline processes to increase sales, improve customer service, and increase profitability.
