Frequently Asked Questions
How many OKRs should a RevOps team have per quarter?
3-5 objectives maximum, each with 2-3 key results. More than that and nothing gets the focus it needs. Prioritize the objectives that directly impact revenue outcomes.
How do you measure RevOps OKR progress?
Weekly check-ins on key result metrics. Most RevOps KRs are quantifiable (conversion rates, cycle time, accuracy percentages). Use your own dashboards. If you can't measure it from your existing data, the KR needs to be rewritten.
Should RevOps OKRs align to sales OKRs?
Always. RevOps exists to make the revenue team more effective. Every RevOps objective should trace back to a sales, marketing, or CS outcome. If an OKR only improves internal ops efficiency without a revenue connection, deprioritize it.
