How to Collaborate and Co-Manage Experiences on Goosechase

Playing well with others is our whole thing, after all. 😇

So you’ve decided to run a Goosechase - great! That’ll get folks up and out of their seats. And despite the collegiate trauma of carrying group projects on your back one too many times, you’re learning to trust again. AKA, you’re sharing the load of planning the Experience with someone else. Vulnerability!

Whether you’re planning a big event for 2,000 or a professional development session for 20, teamwork is key. Luckily, it’s very easy to collaborate on Goosechase.

Why open up the creation process to others? Lots of great reasons, actually:

• Streamlining event planning and execution, making sure Goosechase fits neatly into the rest of your programming
• Divvying up tasks like Mission creation, live monitoring, and reporting, so it doesn’t all fall on you!
• Speaking of falling (knock on wood)…it’s important to have a back-up creator on deck to step in and take the reins in case of emergencies. 

Add Collaborators To Your Experience

In the studio homepage, click on the 3 dots to the right of your Experience. Upon clicking, you’ll see the option to invite collaborators by plugging in the email address associated with their Goosechase account.

Wait, they’re not on Goosechase yet? No sweat. They’ll get the invitation to collaborate via email, and can sign up for a new account when they accept.

Brainstorm Missions Together

One of the most fun parts of creating a Goosechase is coming up with the Missions themselves. And I won’t lie; it takes brain power and creativity! Why not share the responsibility with others? Brief them on your objectives for the Goosechase, and share this template ‘round for everyone to fill out:

Of utmost importance when planning any Goosechase Experience? Making sure you and your collaborators see eye-to-eye on its objectives, so you’re all creating the Experience with shared goals in mind.

And worrying about “too many cooks in the kitchen”? Understandable! But sharing is caring, as long as you’re on the same page. And the more folks are involved, the more support there will be for your Goosechase overall. Surely, you can get behind that?
