What we loved was how fast we could respond. We didn’t need attendee data or post-event email surveys. With QR feedback, we fixed problems while the event was still going.

Here's a quick summary.
The Objective
To collect real-time feedback during LazFest – not after – and use it to fix operational pain points (queues, heat, crowd flow) before they impact the entire experience.
The Challange
The brand was hosting a large-scale public event designed to engage customers through immersive, high-energy brand experiences. But despite meticulous planning, the team lacked:
1.
A way to gather feedback without attendee emails
2.
Real-time alerts on operational issues
3.
In-the-moment visibility into experience gaps
4.
Insight into how theirbrand message and environmentwere actually being received
Traditional post-event surveys couldn’t provide timely, actionable feedback.
The Solution
They didn’t have attendee data. No CRM. No emails to follow up with.
And with a massive event, waiting until it ended to get feedback simply wasn’t an option.
So they tried something different.
They teamed up with SurveySensum to turn every attendee into a live source of feedback – using nothing but strategically placed QR codes and two on-ground volunteers.
Here's how it unfolded:
Before the event, we worked with their team to design a quick, mobile-friendly survey. No logins, no complexity – just a few simple questions focused on what mattered most: crowd flow, comfort, branding, and overall experience.
Then, we generated smart QR codes and placed them across the venue:
- At entry gates where queues tend to form
- Near food courts and chill zones
- Around booths and brand installations
- Even in restrooms and shaded rest areas
Two volunteers from the team were assigned a simple job: invite people politely to scan the code and share how they felt about the experience – right there, in the moment.
And almost immediately, the feedback started flowing in.
Live Insights, Live Actions
By the first few hours of Day 1, patterns emerged.
Visitors reported long queues at the entrance and food stalls.
They said it was too hot and there wasn’t enough seating.
Their team didn’t wait.
They increased staff at the gates, opened more access lanes, and improved signage.
They brought in fans, tents, and extra seats.
By Day 2, wait times were down, and comfort scores were up.
Attendees stayed longer. Booth engagement increased.
And all of this happened before the event even ended.
