BACK TO THE BOOK FAIR
Remember the school book fair?
Justworks brought it back.
There is something familiar about a book fair: the childhood excitement of finding a new story and choosing what to take home. Justworks brought that school-day tradition back, with a little nostalgia for the kids we used to be.
Within that setting, the Scribble Booth offered a different kind of story to tell. Guests were invited to write a message to their younger selves.
THE PROMPT
Dear younger me,
here’s what I want you to know…
Guests answered in their own handwriting on screen. The experience recorded the moment of writing, preserving the thought and care behind each response.

IDEAS FOR YOUR NEXT EVENT
From gratitude to goals:
what could your guests share?
The Justworks story shows a personal, reflective use of Scribble Booth. Organizers looking for audience engagement or feedback can explore a different prompt for their own occasion. These are suggested concepts, not claims that Snaptrend delivered each event below.
Corporate events and employee engagement
“What would you tell someone on their first day?”
Invite employees to share encouragement, lessons or a moment when they felt supported.
Thanksgiving and gratitude events
“Who are you thankful for, and what would you tell them?”
Make being thankful personal with handwritten messages of appreciation.
Holiday parties and end-of-year celebrations
“What moment from this year will stay with you?”
Give guests space to reflect on shared memories and recognize the people behind them.
New Year’s resolutions events
“What do you want your future self to remember?”
Invite guests to put an intention, hope or resolution into their own words.
Brand activations and trade shows
“What challenge would you like our brand to help solve?”
Start a conversation with attendees and invite open-ended audience feedback relevant to the brand.
Galas and fundraisers
“Why does this cause matter to you?”
Create space for supporters to share personal connections to a mission, without promising fundraising results.
For audience feedback, agree on the question, participation and consent expectations, and how responses will be used. Open-ended messages can add context to a conversation; they are not a substitute for a representative survey.
EVENT PLANNING QUESTIONS
Scribble Booth engagement
and audience feedback FAQ
What is a Scribble Booth for audience engagement?
Snaptrend’s Scribble Booth is an interactive event experience that records video of guests writing a response on screen. At the Justworks book fair, guests answered “Dear younger me, here’s what I want you to know…” in their own handwriting. The output preserved both their message and the act of writing it.
Can a Scribble Booth collect audience feedback at corporate events?
A Scribble Booth can invite open-ended audience feedback through an event-specific prompt, such as a question about a guest’s experience, ideas or priorities. These voluntary responses are qualitative insights, not a representative survey or a measured employee engagement score. Any reporting, analysis or collection requirements need to be agreed during planning.
What prompts work for Thanksgiving, holiday parties and New Year’s events?
Thanksgiving and gratitude events can invite guests to name someone they are thankful for. Holiday parties and end-of-year events can ask about a meaningful memory. New Year’s resolutions events can invite a message to a future self. These are suggested adaptations, not additional Justworks events documented in this case study.
Can the concept work for brands, trade shows, galas and fundraisers?
The writing prompt can be developed around a brand question, a trade show conversation or a supporter’s connection to a cause. The Justworks case study illustrates the writing experience; it does not establish lead generation, donations or results for those other event types. Confirm the creative concept and scope with Snaptrend.
Does the Scribble Booth create photos or prints?
The Scribble Booth experience shown here creates videos of guests writing, not still photos or prints. The page includes an actual guest output video and behind-the-scenes event photographs. Delivery arrangements and other requested services are confirmed separately.
What should organizers consider before sharing guest messages?
Choose a prompt guests can answer comfortably and give them the choice to participate. Agree on intended use, consent, access and sharing expectations before the event, particularly when responses may be personal. Participation should not be treated as permission for unrestricted public reuse.
