In this episode of the RevAmp podcast, Mark sits down with Samantha Wagner, Sales Ops Specialist at AlayaCare to discuss the age old RevOps question: Is it a tool or process problem?
Here's the breakdown of this week's episode:
1. The guest, Samantha Wagner, works at a health tech company called Elia Care, where she is involved in revenue operations, deal desk, and implementing tools like DealHub.
