RevOps Lab #109 Making RevOps an AI Orchestration Layer – with Alexander Müller, Founder at Revenue Enablement
39:55
Alexander Müller, Founder of Revenue Enablement and one of Germany's most recognized RevOps voices, joins Philipp for his second appearance on the RevOps Lab — over 100 episodes after being the very first guest on the show. Together, they jam on the AI use cases that are reshaping go-to-market execution right now and what that means for how RevOps teams should be built going forward.
We cover:
- How AI use cases in RevOps have evolved — from Clay-era enrichment to agent orchestration
- Top-of-funnel automation: what's working, what's overhyped, and why calling still wins
- Why RevOps is the best-positioned team to own AI agents across the GTM org
- The rise of the go-to-market engineer role and where it fits within RevOps
- Mid-funnel and post-sale AI use cases: meeting prep, CRM automation, churn signals, and expansion
- Why data quality and CRM hygiene remain the foundation for any AI strategy
- The concept of "forward-deployed RevOps" and why it's becoming critical
- How RevOps team composition is changing: hiring generalists and tool-savvy specialists earlier
- Why smaller companies now build RevOps teams almost as large as enterprise orgs
- An XAI job ad that signals where RevOps responsibilities are heading
