Smarty Social Makes the Inc. 5000 List for the Third Time, Ranking Among America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies

Orange County agency recognized for sustained growth and innovation in healthcare marketing

ORANGE, CA, UNITED STATES, August 12, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Smarty Social, a leading healthcare-focused social media and digital marketing agency, today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000 – the annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. This marks Smarty Social Media's third appearance on the prestigious list.

The Inc. 5000 recognizes the nation's most successful independent businesses based on revenue growth over a three-year period. Companies included on the list have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating an increasingly competitive and evolving business landscape.

Since its founding more than 13 years ago, Smarty Social has helped healthcare's most innovative brands — across medical device, MedTech, pharma, and aesthetics — navigate regulated environments and build meaningful connections with patients, clinicians, and healthcare professionals through strategic social media.

“Being recognized on the Inc. 5000 for the third time is an incredible honor and reflects the trust our clients place in us, the dedication of our team, and our continued commitment to helping healthcare organizations tell social stories that matter," said Jami Eidsvold, Founder and CEO of Smarty Social. "As the healthcare landscape continues to evolve, brands need strategic partners who understand how to build credibility, foster meaningful engagement, and create lasting connections across digital channels. We're proud to help lead that transformation."

The recognition follows another year of continued expansion for the agency, including the introduction of StoryEngine™, Smarty's proprietary storytelling system. Built for the healthcare industry, it captures, organizes, and activates authentic patient and doctor stories across every stage of the journey — ready to be discovered, adapted, and amplified across brand channels.

“We've always believed that what breaks through in healthcare is human truth,” says Eidsvold. “StoryEngine came out of watching incredible patient and clinician stories get left on the cutting room floor after one campaign. That felt like a real loss, for the brand and for the people whose stories deserved to keep living. We built StoryEngine to change that and drive the next phase of our agency growth and investment in client partnerships."

The Inc. 5000 recognition adds to a strong run of acknowledgments for Smarty Social in 2026, including being named to MM+M's Agency 100 "Ones to Watch" list, earning a Platinum TITAN Health Award for the Invisalign "Game Changers" campaign in the Consumer Social Media Campaign category, and being recognized as one of Orange County's Best Places to Work by the Orange County Business Journal.
