Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess
The product sampling activation we hosted brought incredible energy to our marketplace. We saw a 40% spike in foot traffic that day, and customers lingered longer, which naturally led to increased spending at our vendor stalls. It was a win-win that our community really embraced.
We were hesitant at first about hosting a brand activation, but it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made this year. The energy in our space was incredible, customers were engaged and excited, and we actually generated additional revenue through food and beverage sales during the event. Would definitely do this again.
Partnering with brands for activations has strengthened our community presence and given our members something fun and exclusive to enjoy. The sampling events felt authentic to our space and values, and it's been a great way to introduce new products to our audience while supporting our venue's operating costs.
