Reason One

Based in Charleston, South Carolina, Reason One works exclusively within healthcare, positioning itself as a digital partner focused on that sector. The agency describes itself as mission-driven and B Corp certified, with a stated goal of improving access to care for patients. Its client base includes healthcare organizations such as Emory Healthcare, and its team, sized between 11 and 50 people, combines digital creative and technology roles aimed at serving this industry specifically. The agency's declared service lines cover search engine optimization, web design and development, UX/UI design, mobile app development, branding, and content marketing, all applied within healthcare contexts. A distinct part of its practice is web accessibility: an internal Accessibility Team (r1at) meets regularly to study inclusive design practices and apply them to client work, and staff participate in and speak at digital accessibility events. Reason One also turns findings from project delivery into thought leadership content for the healthcare industry, framing this as a way to translate practical insights into broader industry guidance. Beyond client services, the agency runs a Mentorship & Scholarship Program aimed at Black students entering digital technology careers, and operates under B Corporation principles, which it ties to internal policies such as dedicated volunteer time for staff and contributions to community organizations.
