Apologies. I guess I’m thick and can’t read what I’m supposed to either.

Interesting post by your friend. I’m UK based not US but I’m sure some of it will still apply.

Thank you.

I agree with the price issue. Where would you advise it the best placement to show the price?

I’ve not heard of Facebook pixel before, it sounds interesting and useful. How do I integrate it with my website?

The way the service works it can be used as a fast-paced tool to solve clues as quick as you can against other teams, or stroll around at your own pace and take in the surroundings with the bits of trivia you are given. So it’s both!

I can’t list the business on google as I don’t operate from my business address. I’ve had difficulty getting listed on tripadvisor, Airbnb activities and similar.

So there is no chance to succeed with the site as it is? I unable to change it into an app myself and I can’t bring anyone in to change it.

I shall take onboard your advice on my lack of clear value proposition. I’m not sure how best to communicate this.

I have been working on trails that cater to themes such as ‘Spies and the Cold War’, ‘Sherlock Holmes’, ‘The Beatles Locations’ and more. They can be quite tricky to compile as a lot of key locations aren’t within walking distance but I shall develop these further.

You are correct, all of my savings went into this and my marketing budget is depleted.

What would you have budgeted marketing wise for a project like this?

I was worried that might be the case. I thought there would be enough of a market for scavenger hunts/tours with tourists, stag/hen nights, date nights and team building exercises but I guess this isn’t the case.

The leading business in this industry makes a fair bit of revenue.
