One Click Ventures
One Click Ventures (One Click) is an Indiana e-commerce business founded by husband and wife Randy and Angie Stocklin in 2005. One Click brands include SunglassWarehouse.com and Readers.com.
History
Randy and Angie Stocklin founded One Click in 2005, launching a website called "MailFromSantaClaus.com" out of their home office. In 2006, the couple moved their company into the affordable fashion industry, acquiring SunglassWarehouse.com. In 2007, One Click moved to its first location outside of the Stocklin home, a 1,000-square-foot facility in Greenwood, Ind. That same year, Randy and Angie hired their first full-time worker. By 2008, the Hoosier company expanded into a 4,000-square-foot facility (still in Greenwood), and two more affordable fashion brands were acquired: HandbagHeaven.com and Readers.com.
One Click grew quickly, eventually touting nine online brands in the affordable fashion and travel product industries. By 2012, the One Click team moved into a 68,000-square-foot facility in Greenwood. Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels honored the One Click team at its ribbon-[...] ceremony, where the Stocklins announced the company's intentions to more than double its workforce. Today, One Click is concentrating a majority of its resources on the eyewear industry. Readers.com and SunglassWarehouse.com remain as two major components of the company portfolio. All of One Click's team operates in-house, with people in marketing, technology, merchandising, customer happiness, business intelligence, order fulfillment and human relations.

One Click, One Community Program
In January 2013, One Click launched a new team philanthropy initiative to double its charitable giving. "'One Click, One Community' was designed by the OCV team to give 2 percent of the company’s profits back to the community in the form of cash, time and products." The program involves a "community day" initiative, where team members are given an additional PTO day each year to spend volunteering at local organizations. In addition, company leaders and team members regularly seek out national and international organizations that can benefit from cash and product donations.
