What is QuizBang!!? and the Business Model

QuizBang!!

QuizBang!! is Trivia Mafia's low-cost trivia offering where the site provides the host and prizes ,while we provide them with recurring content emailed to them at the beginning of the week of their event; pens and answer sheets that they can reorder or print themselves; and marketing assets that include various digital versions of posters that allow them to market as "QuizBang!!," "Trivia Night," or whatever creative name they so choose!

The game format itself differs from "Trivia Mafia Classic" in that instead of one 2-hour game, it is instead two 45-minute games meant to be played back-to-back in an evening for a comparable 2-hour trivia event. Additionally, the content is more concentrated and more accessible to accommodate the fast-paced 45-minute game with an element of point wagering meant to widen the field and chances of winning!

For more information regarding what's typically included and how it works, see below for what is included in the "New Site Signup Welcome" email below:

The QuizBang!! Business Model

As mentioned, QuizBang!! is less expensive for businesses to run than the other game formats under Trivia Mafia. We offer a 4-week trial for free and then charge just $35/week (or $50/event for non-weekly frequency) after that period for them to continue running their trivia night.

The reason we are able to charge such a low rate for these services is due to our lack of expenses - both monetary and time-based - on these accounts.

QuizBang!! Site Setup Process

Where Do QuizBang!! Sites Come From?

New prospective venues looking for trivia will fill out the "Contact Form" at https://www.quizbangquiz.com/contact.

Once submitted with their information, a new "QB lead" is created in the QuizBang AirTable Base. This also triggers an automated email to be sent to the prospective site's contacts' email with information and next steps, as well as a Slack notification in the #quizbang-leads channel.

The automated email is sent from quizbang@triviamafia.com looks like this:

Hi there [First Name],

Thank you for your interest in bringing QuizBang to [Site Name]! Let's get you some trivia.

How it works: 

• QuizBang!! is a fast-paced trivia game designed for taprooms, sports bars, restaurants, taverns, cafes, or any other venues looking to add a lively trivia game to their weekly schedule.
  
  
• You'll run two 45-minute games of 15 questions, focusing on the best trivial factoids from pop culture, music, movies, sports, and television (with just enough history, science, geography and current events tossed in too).
  
  
• The game includes point-wagering strategy as well as elements of chance, so you don’t need to be a “Jeopardy!” champ to have a chance at winning. Plus, it’s produced by Trivia Mafia, so you know the questions will be top-notch, well-written, fully researched, and super fun.

  • All trivia content, plus slideshows for both quizzes, delivered to your inbox every week (or bi-weekly, or monthly—whichever schedule works best for you).
  • Digital marketing assets and templates for printed promotions
  • Answer sheet pads + pens

  • Prizes for the winning teams (recommended: gift cards at $20/$10 values for each game—four cards total)

Samples: 

• Here's a sample quiz. We share these as Google Sheets. Each quiz consists of two of these sheets.
• Here's a sample slideshow. We provide one of these with every quiz. 
• Here's a sample answer sheet. We provide pads of these, plus pens. 
  
  
• And here's our info sheet and rate card, for your reference.

They Liked the Email and They Want to Do It!

If the contact replies that they want to do it, find their record in the QB Leads table and update their Status from "Auto-Reply Sent" to "Contract Sent."

Once the Status is changed to "Contract Sent" that triggers an automated email is sent to the contact with the PandaDoc sign-up form.

When the contract/sign-up form in PandDoc is signed, a Slack notification is generated in the #quizbang-leads channel:

When you get this message, you will then flip their Status to "Contract Received" and that action creates the site's new record in the "QB Venues" Table:

You will then go into the "QB Venues" Table and begin completing the site's record fields with the information they completed in the form, which you can get to by following the link the the Slack notification from above:

**VERY IMPORTANT: DO NOT UPDATE THE STATUS UNTIL YOU HAVE FILLED OUT THE RECORD WITH THE COMPLETE INFORMATION.**

When you have completed filling out the fields from the information on the sign-up form THEN you will update the Status to "Contract Received" as the last step as that sends notification to shipping channel for supplies and notifies Chuck to schedule the automated billing.

Who Does What for Final Account Setup Steps?
You can check the box for "ACH/CC Auth Form Received" as that is the sign-up form, but leave the "Auto Transaction Schedule" blank as Chuck will be responsible for setting that up.

Sam will be responsible for sending the "Welcome" email.
