Success Stories

What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

UR

Urban Racquet & Wellness Center

Venue Partner
Honestly, we were skeptical at first about hosting a product sampling activation, but the energy and community vibe it created was amazing. Our regulars appreciated the free samples, and we made some solid supplementary revenue from the activation fee. Plus, it gave us great content for our social media channels.

CO

Courtside Athletic Club

Venue Partner
We partnered with Gotham Pickleball to host a nutrition brand sampling event and saw incredible engagement from our members. The activation brought in people who wouldn't normally visit during off-peak hours, and we ended up signing up 12 new annual memberships that month. It was a win-win that required minimal effort on our end.

RI

Riverside Sports Pavilion

Venue Partner
Gotham Pickleball connected us with a sports apparel brand for a weekend activation that absolutely packed our courts. Not only did we get premium exposure for our facility, but the brand reps were professional and handled everything smoothly. Our members felt valued, and we're already booking our next activation.
