Welcome to Immersif: Financial Clarity for Escape Room Owners
Hello there!
Welcome to the Immersif blog! If you're reading this, you're probably an escape room owner, or maybe you're an escape room enthusiast dreaming of opening your very own escape room. Either way, you’re in exactly the right place!
I’m Chi, the founder here at Immersif, and let me tell you — I get it. I’ve spent over a decade in the escape room world — designing, building, and running businesses of my own — so I know just how much passion and creativity it takes to make an escape room a success. But here's the thing...
As exciting as it is to design mind-bending puzzles, running an escape room business also comes with some serious number crunching. (I know, I know… not as fun as locking people in rooms, right?)
That’s where I come in!
At Immersif, I’m here to help you navigate all the financial stuff — from bookkeeping and payroll to taxes and cash flow management — so you can focus on what you enjoy most: creating epic, immersive experiences that leave people talking for days.
Whether you’re just starting out, running your first room, or scaling up to multiple locations, I’m here to support you. Think of me as the financial partner you’ve always wanted but didn’t know how to find. A bookkeeping expert with a passion for escape rooms.
So, what exactly do I do?
Great question! Let me break it down for you:
Escape Room Accounting Package: I’ll get your books in order with tailored services designed for escape room businesses. From bookkeeping and payroll, to accounting and tax returns, I’ve got everything set up so you don’t have to worry about the financial side of things. See my escape room accounting services.
Escape Room Insight Reports: I don’t just keep the books — I provide actionable insights to help you understand your escape room's financial and operational health. We’ll dive into things like profitability, efficiency, and KPIs so you can make smarter decisions and grow with confidence. See my escape room insight examples.
Escape Room Success Strategy: Whether you’re in the planning stages or a seasoned pro, I’ve got tons of advice on how to navigate the financial challenges that come at each stage of your escape room journey. You’ll never feel alone in this. Read my guide on the journey to escape room success.
And if you're not an escape room owner? No worries! I also work with a wide range of creative and immersive businesses — from freelance creatives to escape room suppliers, and experiential dining to immersive theatre. If your business involves creativity or immersive experiences, I’ve got the skills and know-how to help you succeed. Find out what sectors I also work with.
Who am I, anyway?
In case we haven’t met yet, I’m Chi Yun Wai (or Sam, if you prefer) — the Escape Room Bookkeeper (yep, that’s my unofficial nickname!). Before I became obsessed with balancing the books, I was deep in the world of escape room design, project management, and business building. I’ve run my own escape room business, launched multiple projects, and been knee-deep in all the behind-the-scenes stuff that keeps a business running smoothly. Read my story about how I started my escape room journey, my escape room and business experience that I gained over the past 10 years and my professional certifications.
But my true passion? Helping YOU! I’ve seen how hard it can be to juggle creative passions with the day-to-day realities of running a business. That’s why I created Immersif: to offer a hands-on, personalised service that takes the stress out of finances so you can focus on what you do best — growing your dream business.
