Crafting Narratives, Building Legacies
We are a PR agency that helps brands like yours transform your online presence. In a sea of brands, Ascend works hard to make YOU the one to watch.

This means faster results, guaranteed publishing, and no more hoping for the best. We stand by our promise: articles published word-for-word. And in the rare instance we can’t deliver? You get a full refund. It’s a new era of PR, and Ascend is leading the charge.
Mission & Vision Statement
Mission
Traditional PR agencies have outdated methods with long timelines and no guarantees. At Ascend, we offer a unique and automated approach that ensures immediate publication for our clients, eliminating pitching and uncertainty. We use custom software to connect clients with publishers, making us a more efficient and effective choice in a crowded industry.
Vision
Ascend Agency's vision is to democratize PR, making it accessible to all individuals and organizations. We strive to simplify and revolutionize the industry, breaking down barriers, and ensuring that PR is available to anyone with a story to tell and a message to share.
