Build your succession team, get their total buy-in, watch them scale your agency at speed, and multiply your valuation

Are you an agency founder who wants to rapidly scale up, fix your discount factors, and add millions in value?

Executing a roll-up strategy, or heading for an exit as soon as possible?

I help founders build significant wealth, achieve their dreams, and create genuine value.

  • “Felix is a rare breed. He understands deeply what makes businesses tick, is well connected, ambitious and very commercially savvy. He has a great understanding of the market and is well positioned to support a board from a positioning, strategy and M&A perspective. Last but absolutely not least – a genuinely decent human being who is diligent about doing the right thing.”

Hello, I’m Felix Velarde

I work with agency founders to establish their scaling strategy, implement superstar succession teams, qualify strategic acquisitions, and massively increase their strategic bandwidth.

They range from ambitious founders who want to sell at a much higher valuation, to CEOs who are building significant value through Mergers and Acquisitions.

I provide consultancy to leaders who require world-class attention. My focus is on building exceptional value. I do this by helping your people take total responsibility for growth, so you can focus on acquisitions or on your exit.

My clients want, and get, exceptional results.

  • “I’ve been working with Felix for around 18 months. As a result, we’ve tripled our headcount, the turnover’s tripled and profit percentage doubled. I cannot recommend him enough if you’re looking to grow a solid agency fast.”

Industry-leading strategic board advisor for M&A and exit

I’ve led a number of industry-leading agencies and two agency groups.

After twenty years as an agency founder (including one that became the digital arm of Lowe), around ten years ago I founded the world’s leading specialist agency accelerator program 2Y3X, and I’m the author of Scale at Speed, the manual for scaling for digital, marketing, advertising and communications agencies.

I have scaled over forty agencies. I have also participated in, led, or advised 16 agency exits.
