Today, Mahesh Kumar, Senior Director of Revenue Operations, talks with host Islin Munisteri about orchestrating all the data points in the revenue operations process, through operations and handoff. We talk about what are the decisions you want to make from the CRM, which is the single source of truth. We also talk about building for scale, and there are (unfortunately) no quick fixes. You need to have the right mindset when examining the data, and try to understand what it's telling you.

Today, Kevin Mulrane, Founder at The Revenue Standard and Sales at SaaStr, joins host Islin Munisteri about the ROI on hiring RevOps and sales at the same time. He is a data geek at heart and loves reporting. User adoption for a tech stack is by far the biggest challenge he's faced. A rule of thumb is to hire your first RevOps person when you have 3-5 sales reps hitting their targets.

Kevin has been in sales for over 15 years with just over a decade of sales leadership experience. Kevin specializes in working with early-stage start ups and helping them build their go-to-market strategy focusing on People, Process, and Pipeline.
