Capra Digitals

RevOps consulting that ends the argument about whose number is right

Revenue operations is not a dashboard. It is the agreement — written down and enforced in the system — about what a lead is, when it becomes an opportunity, and who is accountable at every handoff.

In short

What is RevOps and when do you need it?

Revenue operations aligns marketing, sales and customer success around one data model, one set of metric definitions and one process for handoffs. You need it when teams report different numbers for the same thing, when leads fall between functions, or when forecasting relies on a spreadsheet somebody maintains by hand. Capra Digitals builds RevOps inside HubSpot rather than alongside it.

Signals

The symptoms of missing RevOps

  • Three numbers for one metric

    Marketing, sales and finance each report pipeline differently and all three are technically correct.

  • Leads disappear at the handoff

    Nobody can say what happened to the leads marketing generated last quarter.

  • Forecasting lives in a spreadsheet

    The CRM exists, but the real forecast is a workbook one person updates on Sunday nights.

  • Nobody owns the system

    Changes get made ad hoc by whoever is loudest, and the portal reflects that.

What you get

What we put in place

01 /

Metric dictionary

One written definition per metric, agreed by the people who report on it, then implemented consistently in HubSpot.

  • Definitions for lead, MQL, SQL, opportunity, win
  • Calculation logic documented
  • Owner named per metric
  • Implemented as shared reports, not personal filters

Process and handoff design

The moments where revenue leaks — routing, qualification, closed-won to onboarding — designed with SLAs and enforced by automation.

Explore
  • Marketing-to-sales SLA
  • Routing and ownership rules
  • Qualification criteria per stage
  • Closed-won handoff to delivery
03 /

Reporting layer

Role-based dashboards built on the agreed definitions, with a single source per number.

Explore
  • Executive, manager and rep dashboards
  • Funnel conversion and velocity reporting
  • Forecast views based on stage criteria
  • Data quality monitoring
04 /

Governance

A light change process so the model does not quietly drift back into chaos six months later.

Explore
  • Change request and approval process
  • Property and workflow naming standards
  • Quarterly review cadence
  • Documentation your team maintains

How it runs

How we build the operating model

  1. 01

    Map the current funnel

    Sources, stages, handoffs and reporting as they exist today — including the shadow processes nobody documents.

  2. 02

    Settle definitions

    A working session per contested metric until each one has a single written definition and an owner.

  3. 03

    Implement

    Properties, automation and reporting rebuilt against the agreed model, with the old conflicting reports retired.

  4. 04

    Govern

    A change process, naming standards and a quarterly review so the model survives contact with reality.

Questions

Straight answers

The questions we get asked on almost every call about this work.

Do we need RevOps if we are only 20 people?

Often yes, but lightly. At that size the value is agreeing definitions and handoffs early, before three years of contradictory reporting accumulate. The engagement is smaller, not different in kind.

Is RevOps just HubSpot admin with a nicer name?

No. Admin executes changes; RevOps decides what the changes should be and holds the definitions steady across teams. We do both, but they are different jobs.

How long before leadership sees a difference?

Reporting usually becomes trustworthy within the first month because that is mostly definitional work. Process and behaviour changes take a quarter to show in the numbers.

Can you work with an in-house RevOps lead?

Frequently. We take the build and the contested-definition sessions, they keep the internal relationships and the day-to-day.

What if the teams refuse to agree?

That is an executive decision, not a tooling one. We surface the disagreement clearly with the trade-offs, and make a recommendation, but someone senior has to choose.

Start with the number nobody agrees on

Pick the metric your last leadership meeting argued about. That one conversation usually reveals the whole operating model problem.
