Revenue Operations: A CEO Blueprint for Aligning Sales, Marketing and Customer Success
Revenue operations has emerged as a board level issue for a simple reason – it directly impacts their primary fiduciary responsibility to protect and grow firm value in the new market reality. This is because six mega trends have changed the formula for growth so much that traditional structures for managing the people, processes, and technologies that support revenue growth are no longer effective at driving sustainable and scalable growth in the current marketplace. Organizations that continue to use outdated functional approaches to growth are struggling to manage growing complexity of technology enabled selling systems, deliver a competitive customer experience, adapt to changing customer buying behavior, or make the transition to a cloud based business model. On a practical level, the executives and managers trying to squeeze more growth from their revenue teams in the face of these secular trends are driving a car that won’t go fast enough because it is only firing on two cylinders, gets terrible gas mileage, and needs a wheel alignment and a tune up.
A new management system is needed. One that does a better job of generating greater returns from commercial selling teams, processes, systems, and operations. This management system is most commonly described as a Revenue Operations model. The goal of a Revenue Operations model is to better align the commercial teams, assets, systems, and processes around a coherent set of customer and company goals to accelerate revenue, profit, and value growth.
