The Shirt of 100 Pockets Experience

I don't know if this is a standalone experience or one that is part of a larger experience room. But here it is. There is a jumpsuit with 100 pockets. Each pocket has different stuff in it. You are given a list of things to find and you have to see how fast you can find the stuff in all your pockets...

Eureka Room Update 8/19/2022

FREE NIGHT at The Eureka Room happened last night. Here's a recap. I hustled a lot this week, planning, reaching out to press, and getting things together. Polly helped me plan out the needs, which was a big help. The WhenWhereWhat gang really likes The Eureka Room and was kind enough to give us a s...

Eureka Room Update 8/12/22

I took some days off this week to go visit my parents, so there's not as much to report. When I ask my optimal questions, they include "What's the best thing I can do for my company?" The answer is generally some version of "get somebody to help you" or "sales". I've been looking at the end to end e...

I got them adjusted on Wednesday, but for some reason google isn't running them yet. They are still "...

Eureka Room Update 8/2/22

Last weekend was the second weekend that I was open. It's still a bit of a soft open and I might have a grand opening soon. It's getting better but there's some major things I want to change. The energy arc is just all jacked. When it was in my house, I wanted it to be calm and unassuming and then g...

The Cost of the Cheapest

My experience in renting the cheapest commercial place I could find reminded me of a lesson I forget every now and then: never buy the cheapest - it costs too much. Cost vs Price The great American salesman and sales trainer Zig Ziglar had a lesson he would give about price and cost. It goes somethi...

Eureka Room Update 7/26/2022

Note: I've been posting updates throughout the buildout of the new Eureka Room location, but since I have slid into being open the last couple weeks, I'll be easing off the daily accounts and going back to the normal blog posts more. Thursday 7/21/22 I spent this day working a lot on my calendar com...

Eureka Room Update 7/22/22

Tuesday 7/19/22 Grant came down and we worked on getting the AC stronger. He also took off the trim from one of the doorways so that the Turkey Volcano table can now move through. Afterward I put up new curtains in some of the windows and used gaffer tape to black out many of the windows that were l...
