A first growth hire
Three to six months to hire, then learns on your runway.
Starts within a week, brings a full team, and answers for retained users.
Our team comes from high-growth startups like Uber, Careem, SWVL, and Noon. We have scaled products from zero to millions of users. We do not just run ads; we build the full growth stack: experimentation frameworks, analytics infrastructure, retention systems, and acquisition engines. Most importantly, we think like operators, not agencies. We care about your unit economics and fundraising trajectory, not just campaign metrics.
Yes. While our deepest expertise is in the UAE, GCC, and broader MENA markets, our growth methodology is market-agnostic. We work with startups headquartered in the UAE that are expanding internationally, as well as international startups entering the Middle East. Our team has experience scaling products across multiple geographies and can adapt channel strategies to local market dynamics.
Working with us
It depends on what you need, so it is agreed on a call once we understand the problem.
We work best with startups that have achieved some level of product-market fit: a working product with initial users. Pre-product startups are too early for growth marketing. Our sweet spot is seed-to-Series B companies that have a product people want but have not yet found their repeatable acquisition channels. If you have a product with real users but your growth is driven by founder-led sales or word of mouth, you are at the right stage for us.
Both. The growth methodology is adaptable to both models, though the channels and tactics differ. For B2C, we focus on paid acquisition, app growth, viral loops, and retention. For B2B, we focus on content-led inbound, LinkedIn acquisition, email sequences, and sales enablement. During the discovery call, we assess fit based on your specific product and market.
In the first 30 days, we deliver a comprehensive growth diagnostic: full-funnel analysis, unit economics assessment, channel opportunity scoring, and a prioritized 90-day roadmap. Quick wins often include fixing analytics gaps, identifying wasted ad spend, improving onboarding conversion, and setting up proper attribution. Compounding growth typically shows clear impact within 60-90 days as experiments mature and systems scale.
We can typically begin the diagnostic phase within one week of signing an engagement letter. The discovery call takes 30 minutes, the proposal follows within 48 hours, and onboarding starts immediately upon agreement. We understand that startups operate on compressed timelines, and we prioritize speed without sacrificing quality.
Startups & VCs specifics
Yes. Many of our startup engagements are explicitly designed to build the growth metrics and data infrastructure that support a fundraise. We build cohort analysis dashboards, CAC/LTV tracking by channel, and growth trajectory models that hold up under investor due diligence. We help you tell a data-backed growth story, not just a product story.
We operate on a fee-for-service model. This keeps the relationship clear and ensures we are focused on delivering measurable growth outcomes, not on long-term equity returns. Our pricing is structured to be accessible for funded startups, and many of our clients find the ROI is clear within the first quarter of engagement.
VCs typically engage us through our Portfolio Growth Partner model. We conduct growth diagnostics across portfolio companies, identify which companies are best positioned for growth acceleration, and provide hands-on execution support. Some VCs include Velocity access as a value-add for portfolio companies. We also work directly with individual portfolio companies on a referral basis. The typical entry point is a growth audit for 2-3 portfolio companies to demonstrate impact before expanding across the portfolio.
