When you join Maize Quest, you are joining our team of operators and hiring our team of people in the home office to work for you. Read on to meet the people working for you and your Maize Quest Adventure.
Hugh McPherson, The Maze Master
Hugh built Maize Quest from the ground up. His experience helps build entertainment value through attraction selection and marketing know-how.
Maize Quest’s operational and marketing systems were developed from Hugh’s hands-on experience and his compilation of information from across our network of operators. That system saves you time and money while it builds traffic.
Hugh's the 'Big Idea' guy who lives for creating innovations in maze-based entertainment. Are you looking for the next big idea?
"Designer Dave" Phillips
Designer Dave has been a professional maze designer and artist for over 30 years. His mazes make your job easier because they are based on his study of people at the flagship location. You have more fun operating because the maze design reduces customer tension, aids employee control and handles crowds efficiently.
Dave’s superior designs accomplish all these things while creating beautiful aerial pictures. Dave’s creative control is evident in the uniform feel of Maize Quest’s materials. His drive for perfection in design is unparalleled in entertainment farming. Is a focused, professional designer of Dave’s caliber included by any other maze company?
Michelle Posey, Group Tour Director
If you want to learn about booking group tours, and we know you do, set an appointment with Michelle.
Michelle’s booked over 700 tours single-handedly using our tour booking system. She’s seen, and heard, it all from group leaders and she know how to close the sale.
As part of your Maize Quest package, Michelle is available to consult with you as you develop your group tour marketing system. Could you use a qualified consultant to help develop group-marketing ideas?
"Electronics Dave" Hahn, Maize Quest Audio Systems
Our line of safety products began when Dave visited our maze and noted the sound system could use some improvement. Since then, we’ve developed a full line of safety, public address, hay ride, and in-maze game audio systems with his help. Our farm never sounded so good. Check out our standard products in the Maze Catalog, but let your mind run wild. We haven’t been able to stump Dave with an idea or problem that needed solved in the audio arena.
