AI-Native RevOps: Turning CRM Data, Signals, and AI Workflows Into Operating Leverage
Episode SummarySandy Robinson sits down with Corey Schwitz, CEO and founder of Skydog Ops, to unpack what it really takes to move AI from hype into operational execution across RevOps, CRM, and GTM. Corey shares where companies are actually starting, why proactive AI matters more than another dashboard, and how RevOps leaders can build AI-native systems that reduce manual work, surface better signals, and help teams take smarter action.Key TakeawaysAI-native CRM is not just automation — it is about making GTM systems proactive.RevOps teams should start with practical use cases like chat-to-CRM, data entry automation, call data updates, lead scoring, deal signals, and company intelligence.The biggest AI risk is not moving too fast — it is waiting too long to operationalize.CRM hygiene is still a leadership and culture issue, even when AI makes updates easier.RevOps must think beyond technical execution and operate more like business strategists.Chapters00:22 Meet Corey Schwitz and Skydog Ops03:22 Corey’s Broadway background and path into tech05:04 Why CRM data is still such a mess07:33 What AI should update automatically vs. what needs approval11:26 Why most GTM teams are still early with AI14:22 Seven practical AI use cases for sales and customer success16:25 What AI-native CRM and GTM systems really mean18:35 Proactive AI vs. manual data entry21:04 Avoiding “just another tab” in the GTM tech stack23:02 Slack, Teams, Salesforce, and CRM workflow challenges27:02 Common mistakes companies make with AI implementation31:48 Where AI should take action first34:34 Using signals, Clay, and company intelligence to support sellers42:33 What is realistic for pipeline discipline and CRM hygiene47:49 Rapid-fire AI questions for RevOps and GTM teams51:41 Corey’s advice: think like a CEO53:04 How to connect with Corey and SkydogLinks MentionedSkydog Ops: https://skydog.aiCorey's Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreyschwitz/KeywordsAI-powered RevOps, RevOps, AI-native CRM, GTM systems, Salesforce automation, HubSpot, CRM hygiene, pipeline discipline, deal signals, lead scoring, Clay, Claude, OpenAI, AI workflows, sales automation, customer success, go-to-market strategy, RevOps leadership, Skydog Ops, Corey SchwitzSandy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandyrobinson/Website: www.SandyElevates.comwww.AI-PoweredRevOps.comAI-Powered RevOps is a Sandy Elevates production.© 2026 Sandy Elevates.

Why RevOps Needs an AI Intelligence Layer, Not More Automation
Episode SummarySandy Robinson talks with Sahil Aggarwal, co-founder and CEO of Rattle and Von, about what AI can actually change for revenue teams. Sahil argues that RevOps, sales, and GTM leaders are still in the experimentation phase, and that the real productivity gains will come from AI intelligence layers that understand business context, connect across the GTM stack, and help teams make faster, better decisions.Key TakeawaysAI has not yet delivered true productivity gains in revenue teams the way it has in engineering.RevOps should focus less on disconnected agents and more on operationalizing intelligence across the GTM stack.CRM is still the system of record, but the intelligence layer may become the more valuable operating layer.Bad data should not delay AI adoption; AI can help improve GTM data when connected to calls, emails, CRM, and other systems.RevOps is best positioned to own GTM AI strategy because the function lives closest to process, data, and execution.Chapters00:32 Welcome to AI-Powered RevOps01:24 Sahil’s Background and the Evolution from Rattle to Von04:59 The Core Problem: Helping Sales Teams Sell07:28 Why AI Became a Real Opportunity for GTM09:46 Why AI Experimentation Has Not Yet Become Productivity11:41 The Horseless Carriage Problem in AI16:31 Build vs. Buy for RevOps AI18:23 What Von Is Building for Revenue Teams22:53 AI, Data Hygiene, and Fixing the Data Foundation25:47 The Future of CRM and the GTM Tech Stack30:08 How Teams Use AI to Operationalize Revenue Work35:11 Why Internal AI Builds Often Fail38:20 AI, Headcount, and Revenue Productivity41:49 How AI Could Change the AE Role44:51 Why Von Is Named After John von Neumann45:35 Rapid Fire: RevOps, CRM, AI Strategy, and Salesforce Headless 36049:21 Advice for RevOps and Enablement Leaders50:42 How to Connect with SahilLinks Mentioned:Von: https://vonlabs.ai/Rattle: https://www.gorattle.com/Sahil Aggarwal on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saggarwal2/Gong: https://www.gong.io/Fathom: https://fathom.video/Salesforce: https://www.salesforce.com/Slack: https://slack.com/KeywordsAI-powered RevOps, RevOps AI, revenue operations, go-to-market AI, GTM stack, AI intelligence layer, sales productivity, CRM, Salesforce, Rattle, Von, sales automation, revenue intelligence, RevOps strategy, AI agents, sales operations, GTM data, sales enablementSandy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandyrobinson/Website: www.SandyElevates.comwww.AI-PoweredRevOps.comAI-Powered RevOps is a Sandy Elevates production. © 2026 Sandy Elevates.

AI, RevOps, and the Operating Model Problem with Anne Pao
Summary:In this episode of AI-Powered RevOps, Sandy Robinson sits down with Anne Pao, founder and CEO of Ignite, to talk about what RevOps leaders need to get right as AI and automation reshape go-to-market teams. From AI governance and process mapping to enablement, ROI, build-versus-buy decisions, and the future of RevOps, Anne shares practical advice for operators trying to move beyond shiny tools and toward real business impact.Key Takeaways:AI will not fix broken processes. RevOps teams need strong documentation, process mapping, and clear ownership before layering in automation.Governance matters. Teams using AI without enterprise controls, security standards, or data boundaries create risk across customer data and GTM systems.Enablement is not optional. AI adoption requires reinforcement, workflow change, and clear communication about how people’s day-to-day work will change.ROI should go beyond hours saved. The real question is whether AI meaningfully improves funnel outcomes, conversion, revenue, or customer impact.RevOps leaders who rely only on system ownership may be at risk, but those with judgment, discernment, and cross-functional alignment skills will become even more valuable.Chapters:00:26 Welcome to AI-Powered RevOps01:24 Anne Pao’s background and work with Ignite02:20 Why fractional RevOps matters for growth-stage companies03:51 Anne’s fun fact: food writing and restaurant reviews05:22 How 20+ years in growth, analytics, and operations shaped Anne’s RevOps perspective10:39 What feels different about today’s AI wave11:23 AI sprawl, security, and governance risks14:24 How companies should approach AI strategy and ownership17:16 What RevOps needs to get right before AI and automation19:08 Practical AI use cases: discovery playbooks and RFP workflows22:37 Build versus buy decisions in an AI-powered GTM world26:27 AI use cases creating practical value today29:35 Common mistakes teams make when adopting AI31:43 Why enablement is critical to AI adoption36:56 Measuring ROI from AI in RevOps41:23 Storypath.ai and AI-assisted revenue storytelling48:01 How AI may reshape RevOps over the next few years54:25 Rapid-fire questions on AI in RevOps58:06 Anne’s final thoughts on humans, judgment, and the future of RevOpsLinks MentionedAnne Pao LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annepao/Ignite: https://www.igniteconsulting.co/Storypath.ai: https://www.storypath.ai/Keywordsrevenue operations, AI in RevOps, go-to-market strategy, GTM operations, AI automation, AI governance, RevOps enablement, process mapping, sales operations, customer success operations, AI adoption, revenue architecture, build versus buy, AI ROI, enterprise AI, GTM enablement, sales funnel optimization, RevOps leadershipSandy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandyrobinson/Website: www.SandyElevates.comwww.AI-PoweredRevOps.comAI-Powered RevOps is a Sandy Elevates production.© 2026 Sandy Elevates.
