SRI
Duffy Humbert
Senior Partner
With over 30 years of experience in account service and new business development, Senor Partner Duffy Humbert has a unique perspective when it comes to understanding agency-client relationships. She can tell you in a heartbeat what makes relationships click and what can make them fall apart.
It’s what happens when you have an amazing resume like Duffy’s – 10 years as Managing Partner and Director of Account Services at TBWA/Chiat/Day. Here, Duffy played lead on Infiniti, ABC and Taco Bell. She also did a major stint at Deutsch, where she contributed significantly to their new business record while simultaneously running the Old Navy, Coors, and Helio accounts.
The California native started her career at Eisaman, Johns & Laws before moving to Dentsu, and later RPA, gaining experience working with automotive, entertainment, fast food, fashion, finance and telecom clients.
Duffy doesn’t just talk the talk when it comes to understanding what drives traffic and business growth – she walks the walk as the co-owner of a food retail franchise.
As a Senior Partner at SelectResources International, Duffy oversees the Agency Subscriber program while simultaneously managing client searches.

Search consultants are an effective leading indicator for the new business pipelines of agencies.
