Questions we get, answered.
The things every revenue leader asks before the first call, without the sales fog. If yours is not here, ask us directly.
What is RevOps, and is it what I actually need?
RevOps (revenue operations) is the practice of running sales, marketing, and customer success as one system instead of three that fight each other. In plain terms: your CRM, your funnel, your data, and your reporting all telling the same story. You need it when the tools are in place but the number still feels like a guess, when two dashboards never agree, or when your team spends more time feeding the system than selling. If that sounds like a Tuesday, that is the problem we fix.
What do you actually do in an engagement?
We rebuild the revenue system end to end. That usually starts with a System Audit (a ranked read of exactly where revenue leaks out of your CRM and funnel), then moves into the build: funnel and lifecycle redesign, attribution and reporting wired to a real source of truth, and stitching Salesforce, HubSpot, and the rest into one operating layer. We finish with change management so the team actually runs the thing after we leave. Not a 40-page slide deck. A working system.
Do you work in Salesforce or HubSpot?
Both, and often both at once. A lot of our work is exactly at the seam where Salesforce and HubSpot are supposed to talk and quietly do not. But the CRM is just the core; the modern revenue stack is a dozen tools deep, and we work across it: routing and scheduling like Chili Piper, enrichment and prospecting like Clay, conversation intelligence, meetings and calls through Zoom, sales engagement, and the rest of the layers bolted around your CRM. We are platform-fluent rather than platform-loyal: we care about the revenue system the tools are supposed to serve, not about defending one vendor. If your stack is one, the other, or a tense marriage of a dozen, that is our home turf.
What size company do you work with?
Mostly B2B SaaS companies between roughly $5M and $100M in ARR, frequently private-equity-backed. Big enough that the revenue system is genuinely complex and the cost of it being broken is real money, small enough that we can rebuild it without a two-year committee. If you are pre-revenue we are probably early for you; if you are a 5,000-person enterprise we are probably not the right shape.
We are PE-backed. Do you work with sponsor-owned companies?
Constantly. It is a big part of who we work with. Sponsor-owned companies tend to have the exact problem we are built for: aggressive growth targets, a board that wants defensible numbers, and a revenue system that was bolted together during the last three pivots. We are used to reporting that has to survive a skeptical CFO and a QBR, and to moving at the pace a hold period demands.
Do you build the system yourselves, or just advise?
We build. The audit is where we tell you what is wrong; the engagement is where we go in and fix it, hands on the platform. You are not paying for a strategy document you then have to find someone to implement. We do the implementation, and we design adoption in from day one so it lands with your team instead of getting worked around.
How long does a typical engagement take?
It depends on how deep the rebuild goes, but most engagements run in the range of a few weeks to a few months, not a multi-quarter epic. A System Audit is fast by design. A full funnel-and-reporting rebuild is longer because we sequence the rollout so the change actually sticks. We would rather ship the right thing in a way your team keeps using than the whole thing in a way they abandon by the next quarter.
How do you price your work?
We scope each engagement to the actual problem rather than selling a fixed package, so pricing depends on how much of the system needs rebuilding and how fast you need it. The honest answer is that the first conversation is where we figure out the shape of the work and what it is worth. If the audit shows the fix is smaller than you feared, we say so.
How is this different from hiring a Salesforce implementation partner?
Most implementation partners build what the ticket says. We start one level up, at whether the system should work that way at all. A traditional SI will configure the fields you asked for; we will tell you the funnel design underneath is why the forecast keeps lying, then rebuild that. We are RevOps operators who happen to be deep in the platforms, not a config shop taking orders. The difference shows up six months later, in whether the build is still being used.
Is it just you two?
Michael and I lead every engagement and stay hands-on from start to finish, owning the strategy and the architecture that decide whether the system actually works. Behind us is a full delivery team that builds alongside us, so the work ships perfectly and at scale. You get senior operators driving the thinking, with a real team and the horsepower to execute it fast.
Do you do strategy too, or just the build?
Strategy is where we start, and it is what Michael and I own personally. The architecture is the strategy: how your lifecycle should work, where the handoffs live, what the funnel should actually measure, which tools earn a seat and which get retired. We are not a config shop waiting for a spec. We figure out what the revenue system should be, then we build that. Plenty of firms will do one or the other. The value is in the same people owning both, so the strategy survives contact with the build.
How do you work with my existing team?
We work alongside your people, not around them. Your RevOps, marketing-ops, and sales-ops folks know things about your business we never will, so we embed with them, build with them in the room, and hand off knowing they can run and extend what we shipped. The goal is not to make your team dependent on us. It is to leave them more capable than we found them, holding a system they understand because they helped build it.
Do I need you, or should I just hire someone internally?
Honestly, sometimes you should hire internally, and if that is the right move we will tell you. But the two solve different problems. A full-time RevOps hire is expensive, slow to find, and once you land one they inherit whatever mess already exists and spend a year digging out. We come in, get the system right fast, and set it up so whoever runs it day to day, an internal hire included, is starting from a clean, documented foundation instead of a decade of drift. A lot of our clients hire internally after we leave. We are the reason that hire actually succeeds.
What happens after you leave? Will my team actually use it?
That is the whole point of the change-management work, and frankly the part most builds skip. We design adoption in from the first stage, write documentation for humans rather than for an audit, sequence the rollout so it lands instead of detonating, and support the team post-launch until they run it without us in the room. The only build worth doing is one your team owns by choice. An expensive system nobody uses is just a museum exhibit.
