Our Story

Growth Accelerators was founded to provide companies with a better way to scale. After years spent leading growth, revenue, and partnership initiatives inside ad tech, media, and digital businesses, Laura Gaffney saw a consistent pattern: companies needed experienced leadership and execution at key moments, but full-time hires or traditional consulting models were often too slow, too rigid, or too disconnected from the work itself.

Growth Accelerators was founded by Laura Gaffney, a senior growth operator with deep experience across ad tech, media, and digital businesses. Laura has led GTM strategy, revenue growth, and partnership development from inside organizations at different stages of growth, giving her a practical understanding of how growth actually happens and where teams most often struggle. The firm reflects that experience, focusing on clarity, momentum, and outcomes rather than theory or slide decks.

Growth Accelerators operates through a combined model of experienced leadership and skilled execution. Laura sets direction, shapes strategy, and remains actively involved in every engagement, working alongside a trusted network of specialists selected for their expertise and trained to operate with shared standards around quality, focus, and accountability. This approach allows clients to benefit from senior oversight and hands-on execution without unnecessary layers or overhead.

Growth Accelerators works as an extension of each client’s internal team. Engagements are intentionally focused and deliberately limited so leadership attention and execution are not spread thin. We do not run large, layered teams or sell multiple services at once. Instead, scopes remain clear, priorities stay tight, and ownership is well defined, ensuring clients work with dedicated, experienced people who are deeply involved in the work. Growth moves faster and more effectively when leadership is hands-on, teams are aligned, and effort is concentrated on a small number of high-impact initiatives rather than diluted across competing agendas.

Growth Accelerators does not believe in selling every service to every client. Effective growth comes from doing the right work at the right time, not from maximizing activity. Our role is to help companies avoid common pitfalls, move more quickly with confidence, and build momentum through experience, execution, and access.

The result is a hands-on, operator-led approach to growth that blends leadership, execution, and trusted relationships across the ecosystem. Growth Accelerators exists to help companies scale more quickly and more effectively by bringing clarity, focus, and accountability to the work that matters most.
