Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess
The activation we hosted brought in so many new faces to our shop, and honestly, about 40% of those folks came back as regular customers. The brand we worked with was professional and considerate of our space, and our existing community appreciated discovering new products in a familiar environment.
Working with this platform to host sampling events has genuinely elevated our venue's reputation on campus. Students loved the interactive nature of the activations, and we saw a noticeable spike in foot traffic during event days. Plus, the revenue share model has become a nice supplemental income stream for our operations.
This has been one of the smoothest vendor relationships we've had. The sampling event was well-organized, our patrons were genuinely engaged, and it sparked some great conversations that turned into word-of-mouth marketing for both us and the brand. We're already booking our next activation.
