Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess
The activation brought in a recovery supplement company that aligned perfectly with our ultra marathon audience. What impressed me most was how engaged our runners were—they spent real time at the sampling booth, asked genuine questions, and we saw 40+ product purchases directly from the event. It created a win-win that felt authentic to our community.
Hosting a hydration brand activation at our multi-day event helped us generate unexpected revenue and took pressure off our volunteers. The brand samples were high-quality and relevant to our participants, which meant less skepticism than we anticipated. Plus, the activation fee helped offset our permit costs, so we're definitely doing this again.
We partnered with a sports nutrition brand for sampling at our 100-mile trail race, and it was honestly one of the best decisions we made that season. Runners were thrilled to test products during the event, and the brand's team was professional and genuinely invested in our community. We've already booked them for next year's race.
