What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

Using Recess to host product sampling activations has been one of the best decisions we've made for our community programming. The brands are professional, the residents get excited about trying new products, and it gives us great content for our social media without us having to do much heavy lifting.

We partnered with a beverage brand last semester and it was fantastic for resident engagement. The sampling event brought residents out of their rooms and created a real sense of community—plus the brand covered all setup costs, which was a huge win for our budget.

The activation we hosted for a snack brand exceeded our expectations in terms of turnout and resident enthusiasm. Our leasing team noticed a real uptick in tour interest that week, and residents are still talking about the free samples and giveaways.
