Stikii! Stikii! Read All About It!

This past week Stikii, Inc. was lucky enough to have an exclusive article printed in the Toledo Blade. The article, written by Blade Business Writer Jon Chavez, discusses the origin of Stikii shoes, where they are at currently and where they plan to go. Chavez interviewed Stikii owner Joe Chew, as well as executive director of the Innovation Initiative at Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business, Mike Bills. Between the two, they offer insight into the products chances at a successful future in the current market. Stikii believes that if tailored to the right target market and providing for a specific “need” aspect in the consumer’s mind, there is no reason why these shoes cannot become a household name.

Creating even more noise in the metro Toledo area, WTOL Channel 11 news also highlighted Stikii shoes, Joe Chew and Tony Martinez during their evening news segments this week.

So many exciting things are happening at Stikii right now! We are creating buzz, selling shoes, and satisfying our consumers each and every day. This publicity is just when Stikii needs to “get their foot in the door”, so to speak. Stikii will spend the next few weeks preparing for a children’s shoe show in New Jersey. Here we hope that the shoes and Stik-em accessories will gain even more momentum. Stikii would like to thank WTOL Toledo, Fox Toledo News and the Toledo Blade for their interest and support in our endeavor to make shoes fun!
