Smartbug’s Chief Revenue Officer and RevOps analyst Jen Spencer talks about her recent benchmarking report (https://www.smartbugmedia.com/revops-inbound-2021) on the convergence of inbound marketing and revenue operations (RevOps): a survey of 200-plus revenue leaders that includes a RevOps framework for how best to adapt to these trends. Rev Ops -- or the alignment of technology and processes to support the collaboration of marketing, sales and customer success efforts -- has become increasingly popular as companies look reorganize to support the full customer lifecycle. We also talk about RevOps strategies and the kinds of apps that most businesses are using and how that will change moving forward, the importance of integrated technology to most companies, and why cross functional collaboration is the new competitive advantage.
