Dillon Kivo is a great many things: An entrepreneur, PR guru, social media influencer, public speaker, bestselling author, and more besides. He is the founder of marketing and PR company Authority Titans (among other companies), has contributed to major news outlets, runs the Daily Kivo magazine and news service, and has been lauded as one of the Top 30 Under 30 by The US Reporter. Not bad for someone still in their twenties!
Kivo was born in 1994 and grew up in California. Aged 21, and still in college, he founded his first professional venture, PR and marketing company Kivo Media Group, which became a great success during its first five years, building strong relationships with clients across America. In 2016, he joined the world-famous Huffington Post news service as a contributor, and the following year, he also began contributing to such august business sites such as Forbes and Entrepreneur Media. Through his various ventures, he has worked closely with everyone from Fortune500 companies to non-profit organisations, advising them on their media and PR strategies. He is also something of a groundbreaker, being the first person to ever use a billboard in New York’s Times Square to advertise a CBD company.
Unsurprisingly for someone who is such a natural in the world of PR, Kivo is something of a social media personality himself, owning a coveted blue-tick on Instagram and regularly sharing content with nearly half a million followers. In the tough, tough world of internet and social media marketing, such genuine success is only achieved through a mix of serious hard work and pure talent.
