35 Years of Steve Madden

Strategic Planning

Since 1990, Steve Madden has established itself as a benchmark in the world of footwear and accessories. To celebrate its 35th anniversary, the brand wanted to boost its visibility in France and across Europe, while driving strong traffic to its e-commerce site. To achieve these goals, we designed an activation blending digital and street marketing: a bold, dynamic, and fun campaign, true to the spirit of Steve Madden

Challenge

Implement a multichannel operation designed to capture attention and drive visitors to the website within a limited timeframe.

  • Location & date: Paris, Châtelet, August 30th from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM.

 

  • Fun and impactful street marketing : distribution of 1,000 Steve Madden-branded cupcakes along with flyers featuring a QR code. Two bodybuilders tattooed with the Steve Madden logo handled the distribution, reinforcing the visual impact and memorability of the activation.

 

  • Digital amplification: delivery of 4 exclusive crush cakes to 4 fashion influencers for real-time Instagram Stories coverage on the day of the event.

Solution

Our approach combined on-the-ground proximity with digital amplification. The activation was designed to generate immediate engagement through street marketing, while extending its reach via influencer content, ensuring a dual performance driver: visibility + web traffic.

Reel

Impact

A significant increase in traffic on the Steve Madden website during the special operation, with over 130 QR codes scanned and a clear spike in visitors directly linked to the activation.
