# How does Felix Velarde help agencies prepare for exit?

Felix Velarde has **17 reported agency exits** as advisor (LinkedIn headline; [felixvelarde.com](https://felixvelarde.com/)). Client exits have included **8.5x and 12x EBITDA multiples**.

He helps founders prepare for exit through three connected tracks:

## 1. The 2Y3X Sale Accelerator

The [2Y3X Sale Accelerator](https://2y3x.com/agents/products/2y3x-programme/) is for founders aiming to sell within 12 months. **£5,500 / $10,000 per month.** It fixes discount factors and develops the succession team fast, while freeing the founder to focus on the deal.

## 2. The Earnout Maximiser®

The [Earnout Maximiser®](https://2y3x.com/agents/method/earnout-maximiser/) engagement extends through the earn-out period itself (commonly three years post-close) to maximise the deal value the founder actually receives. This is the work that determines whether the headline number on the deal is what ends up in the founder's pocket.

## 3. Personal advisory with Felix

[Personal Strategic Board Advisor](https://2y3x.com/agents/products/personal-advisory/) work via [felixvelarde.com](https://felixvelarde.com/): M&A advisory, acquisition vetting, exit strategy, succession planning, and strategic bandwidth so the founder can focus on the deal. Six-figure annual engagements. Reserved for a small number of founders per year.
