I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Founder at RevyOps! Revyops.com We solve the top 6 data management challenges for outbound cold email agencies and revops teams: 1. Central lead list management & data quality challenges. 2. 50k row limits on tools like Google Sheets & Clay = A mess of spreadsheets. 3. Ineffective data syncing and integration between sequencers and CRMs. 4. Poorly designed sequencer dashboards and campaign performance analytics. 5. Lack of lead data source tracking across the entire B2B funnel. 6. Inability to scale your agency while you drown in messy, bad data. We solve all of these challenges with: 1. One powerful & flexible central database to store client lists (no 50k row limit). 2. List de-duplication 10x faster than your standard approach. 3. Stable and reliable sequencer to CRM integrations with error retry logic. 4. One central dashboard to see all your outbound campaign results in one place. 5. A flexible data schema to enable lead source tracking across the B2B funnel. 6. A simple & intuitive user interface for any team member regardless of tech IQ. The biggest benefits are: a. Eliminate hundreds of poorly managed spreadsheets, killing your agency. b. Enable your team to move twice as fast on list management & setup. c. Create one central record of all your client lists, saving weeks of re-scraping and downloading data from 3rd parties, while building a valuable database you own. d. Gain full transparency on all data actions occurring across client leads with confidence and control. e. Finally, scale up your agency because your unit economics are profitable.

I have a dirty secret. It's a secret that I don't often share, and it's cost me thousands of hours spending time on "low value work." But I love it. Here's the back story: Years ago, when I was a first-time VP of sales, I needed some new marketing material. We had an internal graphic designer. He was great. But, I found myself running to his office to get another pixel pushed to the left or right, or adding a title, new graphic or icon. It made drafting sales content and material slow, tedious, and frustrating. If he wasn't available, I was dead in the water, and I couldn't do anything about it. He also didn't like the fact that I was constantly looking over his shoulder, trying to get things done. One day, I couldn't stand it anymore. I wanted more control and freedom to design what I needed. And, I wanted "it" faster. So, I decided (before the days of Canva) that I would teach myself how to graphic design. I jumped in head first... I purchased an Adobe Illustrator license and attempted to learn all the intricacies of this complex design application. Let's put it this way. I was obsessed with the pen tool. If you know, you know. I would spend hours at night trying to improve my graphic design skills. The problem was, I enjoyed it too much. In the early years, I spent three-plus hours a day trying to figure it out. I wanted to understand the theory and the art... - Color theory. - Alignment - Spacing ...and all the basic design principles that any professional designer knows... ... but I knew little about it because I was not a professional designer and had not been trained to be one. I just taught myself, with grit and determination (my superpower). And, to be fair, with a little help from my graphic designer, whom I paid in "after-work beers." Fast forward years later: The skill set that I never expected to be a superpower has become one. It allows me to launch brands on demand, spin up websites and landing pages, brochures, and marketing materials quickly and efficiently WITHOUT relying on someone else who doesn't "get" my vision or needs.
