COMPANY STRATEGY & EMPLOYEE EXPERIENCE
“From engaging with your audience or top clients, to bringing your brand to the streets or the screens — your job is to show up, our job is to make the entire experience kick-a$$.”

Red Suede Shoes is a national experience design studio providing strategic consulting and creative services. Born in Chicago in 2014 and raised in a fast paced high energy environment by our CEO Michael Donnelly. We live by our guiding principle ‘Business gets done when people have fun’ and we’re here to help you make that happen.
We have engaged in projects with clients and partners ranging from tech giants (IBM, DHL, Microsoft, Intel) to start-ups; from corporate (L’Oreal, Urban Decay, Entrepreneur Media, Biolage) to small biz (Walker Sands, Table XI, Foodservice Equipment Reports Magazine, dscout) and non-profit organizations (American Marketing Association, Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago, Refresh Miami, Networking for Non-Profits).

We create connection.
Ok, it’s a bit more strategic and complex, but at the core, it’s that simple…connection via intentional experience design.
We have worked on projects:
From Shaking up the way 'things have always been done' to developing a tactical strategy to rev-up sales.
From launching a new concept or product with a laser focus on quickly bringing dollars in the door, to unpacking and restructuring old systems, and building bridges towards professional inclusion.
AND — we have been the force behind conceptualizing, building, producing, “virtualizing” and expanding award winning large-scale tech, business, and social events.
Our work and methodology is rooted in the practice of experience design, which is all about marrying marketing, business development, operations, and real-life (and virtual) experiences. Whether we’re focusing on bringing your brand to the streets or the screens, we work with you to make the entire experience kick-ass, and to create a meaningful impact for your brand and bottom line.
We’re fun, we’re good at what we do, and we pride ourselves on deep attention to detail coupled with connections and experience ‘walking the walk’. We value creating lasting impact. And let’s face it, you don’t need another headache, let us help you get set up for success.
