Welcome to
Connections First

From introductions to opportunities to influencers, we know a guy. However, unlike most connectors, we don’t just build connections, we build relationships leveraging strategy and passionate execution at every step of the way.

Results-driven marketing

Over the last 20 years, we have built empires, created thousands of opportunities and brought in millions of dollars for our clients. Based in the west coast hub of Los Angeles, we leverage connections and opportunities around the world. Our team of connectors, visionaries, and strategic consultants focus on results-driven marketing and PR tactics to get the results you want and need – today. 

Decades of experience have taught us that before a business can start to succeed, it must build connections first. And with our extensive network and relationships we not only can get you the connections you need now, we can ensure that from start to finish your goals are not only achieved but exceeded.

We are a modern agency, that works with clients all over the globe from mom and pop stores to Fortune 100 companies. No project is too small or too large. And if it is outside of our scope of expertise or our vast networks’ capabilities we will be the first to let you know.

 

Connections First partners with WeUnfuck, a full-service agency that accelerates businesses from launch to growth, and to exit. In addition to building strategic connections, with WeUnfuck we can service your business needs at any stage.
