We’re Red Tettemer O’Connell + Partners, an ad agency that always strives to be honest and true, cool under pressure, resourceful and tough with an appropriately proportioned soft spot.

Always ready to ride in and save the day. Passionate and opinionated yet collaborative and without conceit. Curious. Prompt. Courteous. Prepared. Willing to trust guts and fly by a pant’s seat. Driven by ideas, belief in principles, good food, and well-aged single malt scotch. Shitheads need not apply.
