Ascendyn Advertising

Ascendyn Advertising started in NYC in 2018 with a simple truth: so many advertising agencies are great at finding customers, terrible at persuading them.

We fixed that by merging timeless direct response principles from legends like David Ogilvy with modern targeting. The result? Ads that don't just reach the right people – they make them act.

Now in La Quinta, CA, we have helped dozens of businesses turn advertising into growth.
No fluff, just results.
