Official Boilerplate

The Ascension Group is a growth partnership for real estate team leaders and brokers. The company does not sell leads. It builds and runs the Seller Certainty System, a certified seller appointment flow that partners control inside their own business.

The system runs on two channels: video ads tested across markets, and an outreach team working battle-tested scripts and compliant data every day. Both feed one filter. Every prospect passes through 5-Gate Certification and 2-Layer Blind Verification before an appointment touches a partner's calendar, and delivery is backed by a dual money-back guarantee.

Founded in 2024, The Ascension Group has served 300+ partner real estate teams and influenced more than $4 billion in transaction volume, at an average transaction value of $703K and an average cost per closed deal of $1,500. The company operates in partnership with 7th Level (Jeremy Miner / NEPQ) and was founded by Robyn Thompson DeSantos, architect of the Seller Certainty System, and Emmanuel Soba, founder and managing partner.

2024 · Company Launch

The Ascension Group Launches the Seller Certainty System

A done-for-you appointment system built for team leaders who are done buying leads. Two channels, one filter, and a certification standard the partner defines. Not a lead list. A system they control.

“We don't sell leads. We build a certified seller appointment flow our partners control.”Robyn Thompson DeSantos · Founder

2025 · Partnership Model

A Partnership Model That Shares the Risk

The Ascension Group backs its appointment quotas with its own money. If the system is not meeting quota, the company funds the gap until the partner hits their number. Put up or shut up.

“We put our own money behind it to make sure our partners hit their number.”Emmanuel Soba · Founder & Managing Partner

2026 · Strategic Partnership

The Ascension Group Partners with 7th Level (Jeremy Miner / NEPQ)

Appointments are half the equation. Through a partnership with Jeremy Miner's 7th Level, partner agents are trained on the same NEPQ methodology used by the highest-converting sales teams in the world. One closed loop: demand generation, appointment certification, and sales conversion.

“It's not a numbers game. It's a skills game.”Robyn Thompson DeSantos · Founder

2026 · New Offering

Recruiting Support Added for Scaling Broker-Owners

Once the appointment system is running, top-producing agents start calling. The Ascension Group now offers recruiting and retention support built on the same engine that books certified seller appointments.

“Agents don't leave for splits. They leave for appointments.”Robyn Thompson DeSantos · Founder

For Journalists & Podcasters

Story angles we can speak to.

Our founders are available for interviews, panels, and expert commentary, with first-hand data from 300+ real estate teams.

1

Why the Lead Generation Model Is Broken

Team leaders spend thousands per month on leads that convert like a phone book. What that broken model costs agents, and what replaces it.

2

The Vendor Stack Problem

The average team juggles three to five marketing vendors, and nobody owns the full outcome. Why fragmentation, not effort, is what holds teams back.

3

Agent Retention Runs on Appointments

Agents rarely leave over splits or culture. They leave because another team has more appointments. What one departing agent really costs a brokerage.

4

The 60-Hour Team Leader

Why high-earning team leaders end up working 60 to 80 hour weeks as marketers, managers, and babysitters, and how systems give them their time back.

Robyn Thompson DeSantos, Founder of The Ascension Group

Robyn Thompson DeSantos

Founder & Face of the Brand

Robyn Thompson DeSantos is a founder of The Ascension Group and the architect of the Seller Certainty System and its 5-Gate Certification framework. A former team leader who ran a 12-agent team of her own, she spent over a decade studying one question: what actually fills a team leader's calendar with real sellers. Her work has been featured at brokerages including Century 21, Christie's International Real Estate, eXp Realty, Keller Williams, and Compass. She is the voice of the company, on camera and in the industry.

“More leads won't fix a weak conversation. We give you the appointments, and the team that can close them.”
