About 1UP Digital

Here at 1UP, our purpose is to be a people first organization that makes a positive impact and helps people achieve great goals. We believe that digital marketing is not just about response rates and search engine algorithms; it’s also about people. We believe the technical tools of trade are worthless without creativity and an innate understanding of how people use the web. Since 2013, we’ve been blending tech skills with creative thinking while working as an extension of our clients’ teams to design tailored digital marketing plans for them. Our diverse team brings complementary skills and digital marketing expertise to every project, which allows us to provide big agency level service and skills but in a smaller, nimble and cost-effective way.

We’re a group of zealous individuals who enjoy helping to shape the industry and taking initiative to bring our ideas to life. We share a desire to make a positive impact and seize every opportunity to celebrate each other’s success along the way. We’re growing fast and looking to add more excellent team members to our world-class marketing team.
