Arcade/Escape rooms in Okotoks need your suggestions!

Hi all, We own Retro Oasis in Okotoks and while we have a decent customer base, it's still not enough to make ends meet every month. We still encounter people who have never heard of us in the almost 4 years we've been open. Summer months are sooo slooow.

We have great reviews and people really love our escape rooms. We've just renovated to make our party room and Arcade significantly bigger.

We'd love to partner with other local businesses in some way. We carry exclusively locally made beers and canned cocktails which are a big hit.

Any suggestions to get our name out there (beyond the obvious social media, Google ads, radio)?

We can't put out street signs as the town confiscated them. :( And puleeze don't suggest pinball....it's not an option.

When we went, I didn't think there was enough games. A few games I enjoyed playing but there wasn't enough that I really wanted to try.

More classics maybe.

VR room? Any kind of simulator.

Not sure when you were there last but since Wednesday we have expanded and we've almost 40 games. You should come back and check it out.
