From founder-led selling to functional sales orgs, this one’s packed with tactical insight for ops leaders navigating high-growth chaos.

In this episode, Tom VanLangen, VP of RevOps at Quickbase, challenges the traditional idea of ops as gatekeepers.

He shares insights from his telco roots, his move into marketing and CS ops, and why he’s now offering early-stage companies free advice through RevOps Hub.

Our host, Jeff Ignacio, sits down with Rich Bishop, founder of Midgame Consulting, to talk all things RevOps. From his unexpected leap into consulting to transforming go-to-market strategies at PE-backed and traditional companies. Rich shares what makes change management stick, how to win over skeptical sales teams, and why CRM adoption is about more than just data hygiene. If you're navigating complex orgs, outdated processes, or just trying to make RevOps less of a “flavour of the month,” this one’s for you.

This week on The RevOps Review, Jeff Ignacio is joined by Mustafa Saeed, cofounder and CEO of Luella.ai, to unpack the chaotic new normal in outbound email.

Plus, a deep discussion on the emerging "Go-To-Market Engineer" role, why it's gaining traction and the challenges in building this rare profile. If your pipeline depends on outbound, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.
