    #107 How CROs Think (+ What It Means for RevOps) - with Jeremy Donovan, Managing Director at Insight Partners

    In this episode, we dive into exclusive data from Insight Partners’ latest survey of over 200 B2B SaaS CROs. Jeremy Donovan shares what differentiates top-performing revenue organizations from the average, covering everything from org structure and hiring traits to the surprising trends in outbound sales and AI adoption. What you’ll learn in this episode: CRO Scope & Focus: Why top-performing CROs focus strictly on New Logo and Expansion revenue rather than owning Marketing or Customer Success. The Outbound SDR Surprise: Contrary to market trends, data shows high-growth companies are expanding their outbound teams—Jeremy explains why and when this works. Hiring Top Talent: The hierarchy of intrinsic traits (Grit, Intelligence) vs. experience, and why "similar deal size" matters more than vertical experience. RevOps Reporting Lines: Why 90% of top performers keep Sales Ops directly under the Sales Leader. AI in 2026: shifting focus from top-of-funnel automation to mid- and bottom-funnel use cases like opportunity risk and expansion.

    Sarabeth Scott joins Janis and Philipp to break down what great board reporting actually looks like — and which metrics boards really care about across Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success.

    #105 How AI is changing RevOps - with Lindsay Rothlisberger, Head of RevOps at Zapier

    Is RevOps becoming "GTM Engineering"? In this episode, Philip and Janus sit down with Lindsay Roethlisberger, VP of Revenue Operations at Zapier, to discuss the massive shift happening in the industry. Zapier operates at the intersection of a massive high-velocity PLG model and a growing Enterprise sales motion. Lindsay shares how she is restructuring her team to handle this complexity, moving away from functional silos to funnel-focused pods. We dive deep into the debate around the "GTM Engineer" role, how AI is unlocking unstructured data, and why RevOps needs to balance the tension between building perfect systems and experimenting fast. What you will learn in this episode: The "Explore vs. Exploit" Tension: Why RevOps teams need to balance building scalable foundations (precision) with rapid experimentation (speed) to win in today's market. Restructuring for Growth: How Zapier shifted from task-based roles (e.g., email ops) to funnel-based ownership (Inbound vs. Outbound pods). The Rise of the GTM Engineer: Is it just a buzzword? Lindsay explains how this technical role is orchestrating signals, enrichment, and systems to power modern outbound strategies. Unlocking Unstructured Data: How to use AI to mine call transcripts and emails for hidden objections and strategic insights that standard reporting misses. The RevOps Advantage: Why organizational context remains the biggest competitive advantage for RevOps leaders.

    #103 The Data Dilemma: How Bad Data Breaks GTM - with Spencer Hardey, VP of Business Ops at HG Insights

    Spencer Hardy, VP of Operations at HG Insights, joins Janis and Philipp to talk about the hidden cost of bad data and how misaligned definitions quietly break go-to-market execution.
