Allison+Partners Names Tony Katsulos General Manager, Dallas

Allison+Partners today announced that it has appointed Tony Katsulos to lead the agency’s Dallas office. Katsulos brings more than 25 years of public relations and corporate communications experience, working with clients in technology, healthcare, retail, hospitality, financial services and energy industries. In his new position, Katsulos will provide strategic counsel to existing clients, further expand the agency’s regional business, and manage day-to-day operations. Tony will report to Jonathan Heit, co-founder + president, Americas and Matthew Della Croce, president, Global Corporate.

“We continue to see impressive growth with our U.S. business, driven by recent strategic hires in important practice areas and geographic markets,” said Heit. “Tony’s experience, coupled with his proven entrepreneurial success at building and running his own agency for the last 15 years, made him the perfect choice to continue growth in Texas and build even deeper relationships with our clients and staff.”

Most recently, Katsulos owned and operated Jetstream Communications, a Dallas-based public relations firm that worked primarily with healthcare and technology companies. Prior to Jetstream, he served as a senior vice president and partner at Fleishman-Hillard in Dallas, where he ran the Corporate/Technology team and managed financial communications for SBC Communications (now AT&T). He began his career as a daily newspaper reporter, covering crime in Florida and Texas.

“Tony is a proven C-suite counselor with deep experience in strategic business communications, executive positioning, reputation management and crisis communications,” said Della Croce. “We’re confident his corporate expertise will help us better leverage the opportunities in the market and build out our existing business there.”

“Allison+Partners has a rich history in Dallas, working with clients ranging from global brands to innovative start-ups in the region,” Katsulos said. “This experience combined with the agency’s deep bench of senior communicators, integrated storytelling capabilities and focus on generating business results makes it an ideal marketing communications partner for companies looking to make an impact.”
