Bio
Marcel Petitpas has built his expertise around a single, high-stakes problem: why agencies with growing revenue still see shrinking profit. His central framework, the Agency Profitability Flywheel, provides a systematic model for identifying the highest-ROI investments an agency can make to protect time and profits. At its core, the framework revolves around one master metric, Delivery Margin, which measures how much of each dollar collected from clients is left over after the direct cost of completing deliverables.
