Success Stories

What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

"What impressed me most was how the activation brought our whole building together. A skincare brand sampled products in our common area, and it created this fun, low-pressure vibe where students were actually talking to each other and trying things they'd never heard of before. The brand team was respectful of our space and our residents loved it. This is definitely something we'll do again."

They feel valued when brands come directly to them, and we've noticed increased engagement in our common areas on activation days. It's been a win-win for building community while generating additional income for facility improvements."

"We partnered with a major beverage brand for a sampling event last semester and were blown away by the turnout. Our residents appreciated having curated brand experiences right in their community space, and it gave us a new revenue stream we didn't expect. The activation team was professional and everything ran smoothly from setup to cleanup."
