2024 ROADMAP

✅ Automated SEO—No Marketing Skills Required

All technical SEO and on-page SEO is automatically optimized for you whenever you create an activity, event, or product listing on exploringnotboring.com ✨

This means technical SEO like security certificates, internal links, and sitemap submissions to Google are handled for you. Plus, on-page SEO like adding meta data, alt text, and header tags are keyword optimized for you. In our review process, we look for opportunities to improve your on-page SEO so you’re highly discoverable to search engines and Seekers alike.

✅ Custom Links—Short, Branded, and Memorable Links

You can create a custom link for any event, activity, or product page so it’s easy to share anywhere and everywhere—your Instagram bio and posts, website buttons, newsletter, SMS marketing, and much more.

✅ Automated 5-Star Reviews—Convenient & Easy Feedback

We take the weirdness out of collecting reviews, and we’re timely to catch people when their experience is fresh in their minds. Within an hour of your experience ending, all participants receive a super convenient email asking for their feedback. If someone responds negatively, we ask for details, and pass it along for you to resolve quickly. When people respond positively, we ask them to share their review. Coming soon is automated text requests!

2025 ROADMAP

🟡 QR Codes—Managing Event Entry Like a Boss!

Quickly check people in and streamline entry to your event using QR Codes to provide a smooth, professional entry experience for all attendees.

🟡 Mobile-First Navigation—A Cutting-Edge App-Like Experience

We rock an innovative culture here at ENB, and one way we’re exercising that mentality this year is turning our mobile website into an app-like experience. Believe it or not, most websites focus on Mobile-Friendly, converting what’s available on desktop to a responsive format for mobile. We’re different. We’re designing Mobile-First, focusing on how to make mobile and desktop the best experience separately. Once we roll-out our new mobile navigation, you’ll get it. There are very few sites providing an app-like experience on their mobile website. We will! And it’ll be an awesome experience coming Q1 2025.

🟡 Partner Calendar View—Effortlessly Manage Your Schedule

Use our intuitive drag-n-drop Calendar to visualize your schedule, add or block dates in seconds, and simplify your daily operations. Phase 1 will include the view, Phase 2 will include the actions, and Phase 3 will allow group messaging.

🟡 Seeker Event Calendar—See What’s Possible This Month

This is the #1 feature requested by Seekers—ability to view an “event calendar” to see what events and activities are available to do today, tomorrow, this week, this weekend, this month. Surprisingly, practically no event platform offers this view.

2-Way Google Calendar Sync—2 Words: Seamless. Scheduling.

Turn on 2-way sync to bring your Google Calendar into your ENB Calendar View. Now you can manage your entire schedule effortlessly, bringing all your bookings together from any platform that syncs to your Google Calendar.

This is where our Booking Widget comes in. We’ll help you provide a seamless customer experience on your own site, from the booking experience to the automated communication, including confirmations and reminders. That’s a promise!

Automated Text Requests—Boost Your 5-Star Reviews

Most people check their text messages more than their emails, resulting in extremely high open rates for SMS Review Requests. By sending text requests, we make it even quicker, easier, and more convenient for people to share their feedback, leading to more timely and relevant reviews.

Share Photos—Easily Collect User Generated Content

By providing people the ability to easily share photos with their reviews, it helps you significantly boost social proof on your activity, event, or product page and your Storefront. All while automating the collection of User Generated Content (UGC) to promote your stuff on social media & beyond!

Resource Management—Increase You Sales Potential!

List more than one activity at the same time, when one activity gets booked, the others with the same date and time automatically block out. That’s automatic scheduling magic—No double bookings, no stress!

You’re in full control of the magic ✨
