We Won SIX Reed Awards!

March 29, 2023

We are so proud to announce we are adding SIX Reed Awards to our shelves after last night’s announcement at the Campaigns & Elections Reed Awards. We cannot emphasize enough how much it means to all of us at Ascent to be recognized for our work in Direct Mail, Brand & Merch, Digital, and Mobile. We wouldn’t be where we are without the fantastic team that helped propel us to victory, and for that, they deserve a round of applause (even virtually).

The six Reed Awards we won include:

  1. Bootstrapped Campaigns > Best Direct Mail Piece for a Bootstrapped Campaign
  2. Digital – Advertising & Targeting > Best Campaign Meme
  3. Direct Mail > Best Mail Piece for Special Election Campaign
  4. Direct Mail > Best Use of Technology to Support a Direct Mail Program
  5. Mobile > Best Use of Mobile to Support a Field Program
  6. Brand & Merch > Most Original/Innovative Collateral Item

We pride ourselves on building award-winning campaigns unique to each district and candidate while providing the best services in the industry. Our company has grown much since our inception in a small spare bedroom office. We’ve won 34 awards for our political excellence, expanded our in-house public affairs capabilities, and served as Senior Advisors to campaigns for Congress all the way to President. We added in-house design that allowed us to deliver tens of millions of pieces of mail and hundreds of thousands of digital impressions – all while maintaining our high service standards to our clients.

We take this moment to remind folks we’re more than just consultants. If you are in need of award-winning services to put victory within reach and want the ability to work with an experienced group of political professionals, reply to this email to talk with our talented team today!
