Check It Out: See What’s Possible With A Revenue Operations Strategy
With the recent introduction of Forrester Decisions for Revenue Operations, now is the time for B2B organizations to check out options to create a revenue operations (RevOps) strategy. At Forrester, we define revenue operations as a highly configured, iterative commercial execution strategy designed to maximize customer value and company performance. Revenue operations unifies and optimizes data, processes, technology, and talent to better serve the customer lifecycle.
This means that RevOps now has the comprehensive responsibility to connect cross-functional strategy and execution to transform the revenue ecosystem. Sales, marketing, customer success, and partner ecosystem operations teams may not merge into a single team, but they must work together and manage this transformation. RevOps must break down the silos and rebuild a respected, unified operations capability.
Check Up: Get A Status On The Current State Of Your Revenue Operations Capabilities
Sales, marketing, customer success, and partner ecosystem operations teams must understand where to start and determine the changes needed to help them reach their destination.
To begin this journey, leverage Forrester’s B2B Revenue Operations Maturity Assessment to get a check-up on your current RevOps maturity. The maturity assessment evaluates your RevOps capabilities across seven categories and produces a maturity evaluation to establish a quantifiable baseline and identify opportunities for improvement.
