| CAC | Cost to acquire a customer |
| LTV | Revenue per customer over lifetime |

The Integration Challenge
SMBs typically use 50-100 tools. Data silos between them create blind spots:
- Marketing does not know which leads converted to paying customers
- Sales does not know which content attracted the lead
- Support does not know the customer's full purchase history
RevOps solves this by connecting systems, creating a single view of the revenue lifecycle.
What We Build
We build custom dashboards and integrations that connect our clients' RevOps tools into a unified view. When off-the-shelf tools do not integrate, we build the middleware. When data needs to flow from website to CRM to analytics, we build the pipeline.
