2013 PR People to Watch: Jesse Dungan

Jesse Dungan, Client Supervisor, Infinite PR

What makes Jesse Dungan truly exceptional in the PR industry is his ability to inspire confidence in his clients and provide the counsel of a veteran. Within a year of joining Infinite PR, Dungan was assigned his own accounts to oversee—a level of responsibility at Infinite PR that is unheard of with less than a year of experience. Not only did he rise to the challenge, but he created hugely successful PR campaigns that earned clients new business; he also managed employees on his team, and he ran critical phone calls with marketing directors at global law firms.

If that weren't enough, Dungan also took on the task of learning the business side of managing accounts: staffing, tracking hours to determine profitability, and making valuable suggestions about how the company could improve its processes. He condensed more than five years of training into one.
