why does solving RevOps challenges feel less like data strategy and more like babysitting?
i am entirely burnt out by the corporate fluff. every post on my feed talks about RevOps challenges as if they’re just minor tracking tweaks or simple data mapping exercises.
the actual reality on the ground is way uglier. sales completely ignores required fields, marketing runs rogue automation that breaks our lead scoring, and success refuses to log contract renewals in the central hub. our tech stack is basically held together by sheer willpower and fragile integrations, forcing my team to spend half the week playing data cleanup crew instead of doing actual strategic work.
how are you guys tackling these systemic RevOps challenges as your company scales? did you have to get executive backing to ruthlessly force cross-department compliance, or do you just accept that the plumbing will always be a little bit broken?
