Your Story Is Just Beginning

 At Starting Point Communications, we believe every organization—no matter its size—deserves a powerful voice.


We are a collective of seasoned communications executives with more than 150 years of combined experience shaping narratives, building brands, and generating meaningful coverage across sports, entertainment, and beyond.


Unlike traditional agencies, when you work with Starting Point, you don’t just get one account manager—you get the full force of our team. We’ve been on both sides of the table, partnering with global agencies and leading communications inside organizations, so we know exactly what clients need and what they deserve.


Our mission is simple: to help you connect with your audience through innovative, authentic strategies that cut through the noise.


We’re more than consultants—we’re your partners, advocates, and biggest cheerleaders, invested in your story from the very first pitch to your biggest wins.
