A booth quest can spread traffic across the whole floor, or annoy everyone. Targets, rewards and rules that make it work.

A booth quest asks attendees to visit a set of booths to earn a reward. Done well, small exhibitors get the traffic they paid for. Done badly, people speed-scan and leave.

## Set a target people can finish
If there are 60 booths, "scan all 60" will be finished by a handful of people. Aim for a target most engaged attendees can reach in two to three hours: 15 to 20 booths, or every booth in one zone.

## Make the visit count
A scan should mean a conversation. Let exhibitor staff scan the attendee's profile QR, rather than attendees scanning a poster, so every scan happens face to face.

## Combine visits with connections
"Scan 15 booths and connect with 30% of exhibitors" rewards real conversations, and gives exhibitors consented contacts.

## Choose a reward worth the walk
- A prize draw for one big prize, drawn on stage at the end
- Instant rewards for the first 100 finishers
- A VIP lounge or early access for completers

## Tell exhibitors in advance
Explain the rules, when traffic will peak, and what they can do to stand out: a short demo, a question, a small giveaway.

## Share the results
After the event, show each exhibitor how many quest visits they got and how many turned into connections. That number sells next year's stand.

> In Konecto: create the quest in the Challenges module, choose staff-verified scans, and every exhibitor's report includes the visits it generated.
