SEO, AI receptionist, ads, and automations — all under one UK roof. 10 qualified leads in 90 days or we work free.
Not because you're bad at what you do. Because nobody set up the systems to make you findable, bookable, and impossible to ignore. Here's what we fix — fast.
93% of UK buyers search before they buy. If you're not in the Map Pack or top 3, you're invisible — and your competitors are taking the calls.
30% of UK buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Claude for recommendations. If AI doesn't cite you, it's recommending your competitors instead.
Reply after 5 minutes and conversion drops 80%. UK businesses average 47 minutes. Every missed minute is money in your competitor's pocket.
Most agencies do one thing. We do the full pipeline — from being found, to being chosen, to being booked — so nothing falls through the cracks and you only answer to one team.
Rank on Google. Get featured in voice search and AI Overviews. Get cited by ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. Full-stack search optimisation across every channel your customers use.
How we rank you →A 24/7 AI phone agent that answers every call in your brand voice, qualifies the lead, books them into your calendar, and texts a follow-up. Never miss a job again — not on evenings, weekends, or bank holidays.
See how it answers →Missed-call text-back, automatic review replies, Google Business Profile posting, social scheduling, CRM sync, invoice chase, appointment reminders, and custom n8n workflows — built around your business.
See the automations →Facebook & Instagram ads run end-to-end by an AI-driven system: creative generation, audience refinement, daily optimisation, and instant lead replies. Not ads — a revenue engine.
See the automated system →Search, Performance Max, and Local Service Ads tuned daily — not monthly. Proper call tracking, negative keyword lists, landing pages, and bidding. 4.2× average ROAS across UK local accounts.
How we run Google →Blazing-fast, SEO-ready websites built to convert. Core Web Vitals 95+, proper schema, mobile-first, integrated with Stripe, Calendly, HubSpot and anything else you use. Delivered in 2–4 weeks.
What we build →These aren't vanity metrics. They're the numbers that put money in our clients' pockets — measured across 147+ UK local businesses.
"We went from 2 enquiries a week to 14. Same business, same team — just actually found by customers now. I cannot recommend Ascendra enough."
"The AI receptionist is unreal. It picks up on Sunday nights, books people in, and I wake up to a full Monday diary. ROI'd the fee in the first 3 weeks."
"The team actually knows what they're doing. No bullshit, no jargon, just more work in the diary. They rank us, answer calls, run our ads — the lot."
Plug in your numbers. See the damage. Then decide if you want to keep leaving that money on the table.
If we don't generate you 10+ qualified leads in 90 days, we keep working — for free — until we do. No retainers wasted. No excuses. No small print. We're one of the only UK digital marketing agencies willing to put our fee on the line.
Book Your Strategy Call →Ascendra Marketing is a UK digital marketing agency for local businesses. We do SEO, AEO and GEO, web development, Google Ads, Meta Ads, an AI receptionist service, and done-for-you automations — everything a local business needs to be found, booked, and busy.
We're based in Bolton, Greater Manchester, and serve local businesses across the United Kingdom — Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, Birmingham, Newcastle, Nottingham, Bristol, London and every town in between.
AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) is optimising to be the answer that voice assistants (Siri, Alexa, Google Assistant) and Google AI Overviews read out loud. GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) is optimising to be cited and recommended by ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, and Perplexity. Both matter now — more than 30% of UK buyers ask AI tools before they ask Google. See our full SEO, AEO & GEO page.
An AI receptionist is a voice-AI agent that answers every phone call to your business 24/7 — nights, weekends, bank holidays — in a natural, on-brand voice. It qualifies the caller, answers FAQs, books them into your calendar, and sends you a transcript. The average UK small business misses 3+ calls a week; ours miss zero. See how ours works.
Every local business is different, so we quote properly — not off a menu. Book a free 30-minute strategy call and we'll scope exactly what you need and send a fixed quote. No pressure. No subscription trap.
Paid ads and the AI receptionist bring booked calls within days. SEO, AEO and GEO compound over 60–90 days. Done-for-you automations save time from day one. Our 90-day guarantee promises measurable lift inside 3 months — or we work free.
Fair — most UK small businesses have been. That's exactly why our guarantee exists. We only get paid when it works. No lock-in contracts. No shady reports. No monthly invoices for nothing.
Almost any UK local business: shops, clinics, salons, cafés, service providers, restaurants, gyms, accountants, solicitors, dentists, estate agents, tradesmen, plumbers, electricians, builders, landscapers — the lot. If you serve customers in a specific area and want more of them through the door, we can help.
Three things: (1) We're one of the only UK agencies actively practising GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) alongside SEO. (2) We build the automations (AI receptionist, n8n workflows, CRM sync) in-house — we don't outsource. (3) We back ourselves with a 90-day money-back guarantee. Find another agency that does all three.
Book your free 30-minute strategy call with our team. No pitch. No pressure. Just a real plan to get your phone ringing — and a clear picture of how much money you're losing every week you don't.
