The Daily Nebraskan

flytedesk has genuinely helped us think differently about our business. They've given us support we didn't know we needed, and we're more sustainable now than we were a few years ago. A big part of that is having them in our corner.

Chrissy Murray

The Duke Chronicle

flytedesk plays a key role in helping us grow beyond our existing capacity. By connecting us with national brands and managing campaigns our team wouldn’t have time to chase, it allows us to diversify revenue and reinvest in new ideas. That flexibility is what keeps us innovating.

Brett Eden

University of Utah

I’ve been on the business side of higher ed for close to 30 years and flytedesk cracked the code on national college marketing. Driven by their tech-forward approach, they've been able to bring marketing opportunities to big brands at scale and keep them coming back. That’s meant more revenue for our campus and a reliable partner with which to build.
