Luna Park Intros vs. Donut

Focusing primarily on our Intros feature, we'd like to dive a little bit deeper into why this part of our package wins over Donut.

If you're not familiar, Donut is a slack tool that plugs right into your workspace. This tool pairs people in the organization together at random to get to know one another in a virtual coffee like setting. If you're not someone who likes to network or maybe you're an introvert, this tool may make you feel a bit uneasy if you're not sure how to break the ice.

As compared to Donut, our Intros feature has the same premise - pairing people across the organization to foster connectivity, at random. What sets our Intros apart from Donut, is that Luna Park provides a means to break the ice, can host up to 4 people and make it completely unique to your company.

Key Features of Luna Park Intros

• Frequency: Set the frequency to every week, every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks depending on your team size. You can select a start date to kick off the Intros or change the start date if you need a break.
• Customized Channel and Messaging: This feature can be used in any Slack channel, just make sure all people are in the channel to get paired. Messaging can be customized to your needs or use the pre populated instructions and suggested games.
• Groups based upon team size: Odd number, no fear. Our settings make sure everyone gets a turn to connect.
• Data: Luna Parks Analytics Program will track total number of Intros made, number of groups that met, and percentage of groups that met in each connected Slack channel. This is a perfect option to show how our tool provides ROI for your remote organization.

How It Works

Once your Intros frequency, messaging, channel and people are all set, let the fun begin. When your program starts the Intros feature will notify those matched together to find a time to connect to play one of our 10-15 minute experiences. Users have the option to choose the game that sparks interest - making it a fully customizable experience. We've had companies use this feature, who have provided feedback that some teams would connect on a weekly basis to play again without being prompted, allowing employees to build relationships through gamification and shared enjoyable experiences.

Conclusion
