Who is Pelopidas?


Pronunciation: \pə-ˈlä-pə-dəs\ speaker

Many people know that great brands often start with legendary names from Greco-Roman history.

Since the name for the Greek goddess of victory and power apparently went to some shoe company, we thought the legend of Pelopidas, who founded the Sacred Band of Brothers , and was known for freedom-fighting, philanthropy, and community service, seemed like a fitting second choice.

Travis and Rachel Keller Brown, our founders, wanted to build a team network of advocates – for advocates. An advocate, according to the Webster dictionary, is simply one that pleads the cause of another.

The team at Pelopidas represents a professional network of advocates, coalition partners, and support staff designed to fight with and for the freedoms that you may hold dear. It’s the freedom to operate in our country. It’s our economic freedom to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness with a quality education for every individual. It’s the freedom to give back from the gifts given to you. Ultimately, it’s the freedom to help you…be you.

Our clients tend to prefer their own brand of expressions and experiences. If they wanted to keep their causes ordinary, on ordinary growth rates, they would hire ordinary people to help them.

We earn our client’s trust first by accepting the fact that life is short. If you want your impact to move beyond your waking moments, the legacies of your brand and ideas must become greater than yourself. At the end of the day, each of us only has three things to manage: time, money, and information.

We build our client’s trust by not giving up on your goals, no matter how ambitious and broad that they may be. We recognize that hard work towards big goals requires equal dedication from your partners. We depend upon many others who share their vision with their wallet, their watch, their personal jersey, and every morning run.

We keep our client’s trust by continuing to add value to your legacy and leverage – everywhere you seek improvement, for anyone you wish to help. We are always humbled by the fact that many of our largest clients hire us to help others who they may never meet – children growing up in poverty, citizens struggling to find better work, mentees looking for better role models, and economists who support markets, even when markets don’t support them.
