When Zapier transitioned from decentralized operations teams to a centralized Revenue Operations (RevOps) model in 2022, they realized the structure wasn't working due to growing Sales and Customer Success teams. The centralized approach allowed for better alignment across Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success, as well as improved collaboration and knowledge-sharing among ops professionals. RevOps supports entire go-to-market teams, including Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing, by breaking down operations into specialties rather than departmental silos. This structure is beneficial for businesses with subscription-based or usage-based revenue models, where customer journeys can be complex and require standardized conversion metrics across touchpoints. A centralized RevOps team fosters collaboration, drives alignment across sales and marketing, and automates processes to streamline operations. However, this approach may not be suitable for mature teams with established processes or organizations with strong technical partners on teams like business operations, data, and engineering. Additionally, businesses with multiple niche operations experts or those that have a decentralized model working well should consider their current setup before making the transition.
