Raison Brands -

Raison has been wonderful to work with! After a designer with whom I had worked for nearly 20 years decided to retire, I couldn't imagine finding an equally strong partner. In came Lee and Rachel with their creativity, thoughtfulness and enthusiasm for annual giving in independent schools. In the year we have worked together, we have enjoyed a record setting fundraising year, in large part thanks to their inspiring work!

Raison is an exceptional partner with Blue Ridge School. The firm's work with our Baron Fund has had a measurable and specific positive impact and has added value to our efforts in several ways. Lee Wall understands our unique place and our brand very well and we look forward to more work with Raison in the years to come.

The Raison team (Lee, Aaron, Michael and Ashley to name a few) are one of the most creative marketing people I have worked with.
They have collaborated with my company on a variety of assignments such as designing and executing trade show displays, marketing collateral such as content creation, brochures, data sheets and complex technical literature. In addition, Raison played a key role in our re-branding efforts as well as creating new brands in the biomedical space. Raison are a one stop shop for the full gamut of marketing activities such as customer presentations, art work, professional photography and artistic sample displays for corporate and client meetings. The team at Raison has come through time and time again on short notice. Finally, you will find these folks to be just as good or better than the large marketing powerhouses in NYC.

I have had a wonderful experience working with the good folks at Raison over the past year! They came highly recommended to us when we realized we needed an outside graphics design team to help with our annual giving program. Despite our best efforts to plan ahead and give the good folks at Raison plenty of lead time for our projects, things happened to put us behind but it didn't faze their team at all. I am grateful to them for their experience, expertise, and creativity!

Lee and his team are very knowledgeable, creative and affordable. I have used Raison for various startups I have been involved with and they have always exceeded our expectations. Raison isn't just another branding company; they are a partner that always puts a client's needs first. I look forward to continuing to use Raison for many projects and years to come!

While there are many facets to Raison, this boutique firm’s core talent is discovering the meaning, passion, and voice of the select brands they represent. I’ve hired the team – consisting of a unique mix of designers, content creators, and brand guardians – on numerous high-profile campaigns over the past decade. Their work has ranged from the creation of brand platforms and identity systems to integrated campaigns and growth strategies. Raison approaches each project without ego and as active listeners. As a result, they are able to fully immerse themselves into a company’s culture and guide their clients throughout all marketing and communications initiatives. Raison is results-driven and they offer a unique mindset earned from years of experience working in a variety of industries. They operate in a smart, responsive, and flexible fashion. I highly recommend the team for anyone looking to create a world-class brand.

Raison (Aaron & Lee) were excellent. They took the time to understand our business and create website content that was fitting with our personality as a manufacturer in Virginia. They also did fun work with photos and a website design that completed the work.

The Perkins Law team reached out to Raison Brands after seeing another RVA firm's updated site who used them for their rebranding efforts. Lee Wall, Michael Bodnar and the rest of the Raison Brands' crew were a dream to work with from the initial consultation to now, still giving guidance and support. They detailed a timeline which they stuck to and were quick to respond to emails, phone calls and meeting requests. We were never forced to ask for progress reports as they met deadlines and work efficiently. They transformed our old website into an aesthetically pleasing and content rich resource for our clients and potential clients to easily navigate. Additionally, since the launch, we have received countless positive compliments and responses from those who have visited our site. We highly recommend Raison Brands to anyone seeking design, maintenance and creative direction for their company or business!!
