My friend, Abdullah, was super bored the other day and he kept nagging lets Klue ! I was like “What the what ?” Lets Klue ?
He then explained to me that this whole thing is a game that can be costumed to fit young kids to big dinosaurs like me. Then we can split into groups and do a semi treasure hunt with play station/Nintendo wii option of having your game Easy, Normal and Hard.
Its an actual game, you have to get up out of your seat, out of your house and run the whole country looking for clues. I think I can call that a change of ROUTINE for sure. But not so quick ! You have to call in earlier and make your reservations and wait for them to prepare the whole thing for you before your lovely/tender legs actually MOVE.
I guess I explained the whole thing for you guys, yet, meet the guy responsible for it, meet Dhari !
Dhari, introduce yourself !
Hey there, Im Dhari Adel Al Mouawed, 20 years old, have loads of interests like; Traveling, Reading self development books, Shooting, Science fiction Movies and i really like volunteering and summer jobs, oh and CHOCOLATE !
Currently, im studying “Industrial Engineering & Management Systems” ( 4th year )
Childhood flashes ?
Hmm I can relate to something that has to do with business. When I was around 10, I remember we moved to our new house, we had an Extra room we used it to put some old stuff. So me and my cousins we used to play in this room through creating a maze and you have to walk into it with the lights off, we used a timer to finish this maze, the one who wins gets to create a new maze using the furniture and the old stuff we had !! It was amazing we had fun and spend countless hours in it !
Ok, so tell me about this project, K-LUE, how can you describe it ?
The scavenger hunt is not a new idea for Kuwaitis there are some people who started it before. I can proudly say I started the klue project because I wanted something similar to the reality tv shows like ( the Amazing race ) here in Kuwait ! I felt that I could manage it as a personal business although am studying engineering but I so wanted to do it, so I created the basic idea of klue with some help from friends it started as a facebook group and the logo is my idea and the name which is Clue but spelled with a K that represent kuwait and the tresure hunt map of kuwait in the logo. I tried it few times with some people, they liked the ideas, most of them were not first-times so that was the indicating “GREEN” to what im up to. After that i felt i must develop a website so people can reserve when ever they want.
I had some promo on many channels like online, magazines and TV! Then, obviously, it began to spread more and more.
The business is doing so good 7imdellah and I developed lately a loyal card which allows you to count how many time you play the game.
Also, since customer care is my #1 priority, I began making calls to customers call asking them some question about the game, satisfaction and ofcourse the cost. Some of them said its little bit expensive and some were fine with it. I decided that through the loyal card people are going to get a great offer which is a discount after the 2nd time for 50% and get the 4th time for FREE. To me, I think that would be Fair enough.
Through the website you can book your date. The game takes around 4 hours, you choose your risk and daring level and we do ask you to do some daring things even if you choose a very low level !
What inspired you to tap into who you are now ?
“Success is when opportunity meets preparation” I believe every person is prepared to meet his destiny, but it differs from one person to another, you have to believe in your self and keep believing until you get what you want.
What differs you from the rest of the competition out there?
The question is what differs them from me. You see, every person has his ideas, his own presentation and business culture. I believe that i really care about my customers and i always tend to compensate them and promise them a better job next time ! Wither the mistake (if any) was from me or them. So customer service, and mind you, the game they play is super unique itself.
Support ? family & friends ?
My family was really supportive and happy to see me building my own business & my friends too.
Where do you see yourself 5 years from now ?
Thats a really hard question that i have been asked before. I can say I would have 3 different lives to fulfill what I want. Yet, here is the list:
1. Doing my Masters and maybe PHD
2. Building my own business because I have many ideas and projects I would love to accomplish.
3. Married with one kid and a typical boring job maybe 2 kids
I prefer the 2nd option but with the wife part to make it more challenging to me.
Q: Throw something for p0ach readers
Always trust your gut feeling in everything, its your voice of wisdom and taking risks is the only way to get what you want out of life but make sure its a smart risk.
