Title: Owner
Name of Organization: M3 Toys
Michael Heredia is a web
specialist and also owns his
own toy business with its own
storefront in Bucktown.
Heredia's journey started
right out of high school. Wor-
king in retail at the time, he
saw the way companies mar-
keted and wanted to improve
upon that so he could grow
within a company. Very quic-
kly he rose to become a store,
district and regional leader.
After his time in retail, Mi-
chael made a leap of faith and
started his own company. Along
with partners, he was involved in
many local and regional events
with thousands of attendees. His
expertise in digital marketing
changed the way these events
were being promoted.
Currently he is the web
specialist at Creative Ventures
Inc. which owns the websites
OneHourTees.com, ProWrest
-
lingTees.com and ShopAEW.
com. In seven years with the
company he has introduced
a wide range of digital mar-
keting tactics along with new
ideas, products and websites.
His goal at Creative Ventures
has always been to help the
company grow year after year.
Heredia also owns and ope-
rates M3 Toys (M3Toys.com).
The company has a storefront
on Seeley Avenue in Bucktown
with two full-time employees.
His wife Monica oversees the
store. This business started
in their home and grew over
the years. Heredia has always
wanted to give people oppor-
tunities and loves to have em-
ployees with an entrepreneu-
rial mindset.
The next step for Heredia is
to expand M3 Toys into diffe-
rent states while launching a
new vintage retro business.
