Are you building your own private karaoke room? You are taking a great step towards success! Below we share 5 tips we have encountered in our experiences of private karaoke rooms.
1. DECORATION IS KEY
Have you already considered your decoration? The theming of your room can make or break the experience for your guests. We have seen many themes in the business, so choose anything you like. Whether it seamlessly fits your branding or if you want to think outside the box, the possibilities are endless.
How about theming your room around the following categories?
- Destinations like Tokyo, New York, or Paris
- Time eras, like the 80’s or 90’s
- Lifestyles like luxury rooms
Anything can work as long as you stay creative!
2. MIRRORS OR FAKE WINDOWS
Singing in a private karaoke room may feel cramped. To avoid claustrophobia, we recommend placing a mirror or fake window to create the illusion of space. Your guests will feel more comfortable being inside a windowless room for an extended period.
Also, a mirror has a great side effect. Can you guess in what place we sing the most? That’s right, the bathroom. In front of a mirror, we tend to admire ourselves while using a brush as a microphone. Sometimes, we are just like parrots. Installing a mirror in your private karaoke room will conjure the same effect.
3. ORDERING FOOD AND DRINKS
What makes the concept of private karaoke rooms so unique? The name already gives it away: they are private. That means singing to your heart’s desire without unwanted viewers. Therefore, it’s essential to ensure your guests are not constantly interrupted by your waiting staff asking if everyone is still good on drinks. Or making your guests break the experience by going out to order by the bar.
To avoid this, it’s wise to install either a tablet where people can order their food and drinks or to have a QR code they can scan to order present in the room. Ordering will now be part of the karaoke experience.
4. SECURITY MEASURES
Your private karaoke room will see many guests daily, many of whom will consume alcohol. It may not come as a surprise that accidents may occur. A security camera is essential for the safety of your guests and your property.
Just make sure the camera is not too obvious. Once again, the room must feel like a private environment where people can shamelessly take the stage. A camera directed to their face may cause people to shy back.
5. CONTROL YOUR ROOMS
Are you hosting multiple rooms? Then, consider using SMARTcontrol – SUNVIG’s application to simultaneously control the features of various karaoke rooms. Regulate the karaoke systems, the timed sessions, and even the lighting, all from one device.
