Brand profile · Advertising Services
Auckland-based First Five Rungs operates in Advertising Services. Ownership is a nonprofit; it publishes at commscouncil.nz. It holds one address on record, all in New Zealand. The record counts 6 people. It is listed alongside eight similar brands, mostly in Advertising Services.
Climbing up the first five rungs of the advertising ladder is hard. The paychecks are small, the hours are huge, and the hangovers are plenty.
Which is where CCC First Five Rungs comes in. FFR is here to help all you bright young things navigate the rocky (occasionally shark-infested) waters of the comms industry.
Whether helping establish new contacts, offering advice, information about upcoming events, or just passing around the latest industry news and tidbits - FFR is made by the industry's young people, for the industry's young people.
Unlike the jury at Cannes, we won't judge.
The First Five Rungs is proudly sponsored by LUMO.
