RevOps Is A Strategic Linchpin
- Revenue operations sits at the center of the go-to-market and can drive outsized results when used strategically.
- Many leaders don't realize RevOps' potential, so RevOps must step up to prove value through revenue or cost impact.
Start Small With AI Pilots
- Familiarize yourself with generative AI and propose small pilots that reduce GTM cost or improve efficiency.
- Use concrete, low-risk experiments to get C-level attention and measure cost reduction or revenue impact.
Use AI To Train, Not Replace, Reps
- Pick risk-free, practical AI use cases like AI-driven rep training or live coaching to improve GTM skills.
- Frame pilots as protecting real prospects and improving rep readiness rather than replacing people.
