An Economy That Works for Everyone
For over 25 years, REDF has invested in supporting and growing employment social enterprises—mission-driven businesses that create meaningful jobs for people overcoming barriers to employment. By backing bold entrepreneurs and purpose-led ventures, this community-first non-profit is helping build a more inclusive economy and unlocking economic mobility for overlooked talent across the country.
What they came to us for
REDF partnered with us as Strategic Advisors to help power the growth of their Employment Social Enterprises. Together, we’ve worked hand-in-hand with entrepreneurs, small business owners, and the REDF team to develop strategic marketing plans, revamp business models, conduct in-depth gap analyses, and craft go-to-market strategies to equip these mission-driven businesses with the tools they need to scale sustainably and succeed for the long haul.



The Result
We equipped REDF’s Employment Social Enterprises with actionable marketing, branding, and business strategies that elevated performance and positioned them for sustainable growth. This growth expanded ESE’s ability to hire individuals facing barriers to employment—creating lasting social impact that strengthens families, communities, and the workforce of the future.
