Episode #140 What $40M Companies Get Completely Wrong About RevOps

Are you treating RevOps as a cost center instead of a massive revenue multiplier? In this episode of Bridge the Gap, we sit down with Brendan Tolleson, CEO and Co-Founder of RevPartners, to break down why so many scaling companies get go-to-market operations completely wrong.  Even at the $40M ARR mark, businesses are still running on spreadsheets and trying to force growth by simply throwing more sales reps at broken systems. Brendan explains why this mindset only scales chaos and how the best companies grow by reducing friction rather than adding force. Key Highlights ✓ The Force vs. Friction framework for predictable revenue growth  ✓ Why $40M companies are still failing at basic GTM operations  ✓ The exact difference between Sales Ops, RevOps, and GTM Engineering  ✓ Why adding more sales reps to a bad system just scales chaos  ✓ The brutal truth about the 18-month average lifespan of a CRO  ✓ Why modern revenue leaders must know how to read a P&L to survive If you are a founder or go-to-market leader trying to hit aggressive targets without a dedicated operations function, this episode is for you.
