Unraveling the Power of Revenue Operations with Tutt Mrasek from Fiat RevOps

Our guest today is an expert on the RevOps experience, Tutt Mrasek of Fiat RevOps, who has a nearly two-decade career building and guiding companies through creating sales pipelines. And now his company Fiat is also getting into VC investing with Fiat Ventures.
