Think Mario, but when you hit an object and die, a question pops up about your company. If you answer correctly, you come back to life and continue playing the game!
- There is a serious lack of useful tools for marketers to use when testing their audience’s knowledge level. Most of the time companies use surveys, focus groups, and one on one interviews but oftentimes these provide diminishing returns and participation and engagement rate varies.For small teams, intelligence gathering is difficult, time consuming and takes time away from other key operational activities.
What if you could use games as a way to test your audience’s knowledge, and sentiment and use rewards to incentivise them in return for quality engagement?
Here are some examples of previous campaigns we have run (this list is by no means exhaustive)
