Our revenue reporting was a rear-view mirror. I turned it into the operating rhythm for the whole GTM org.
Most revenue reporting tells you what already happened, to an audience that cannot change it. I automated ours, let AI surface the insights a human read would miss, and delivered it weekly as an action list, so sales and CS ran off the same read: hot leads, deals, expansion, churn risk, renewals, and a forecast you could trust.
The picture, before the words.
A revenue report is usually a rear-view mirror: a deck of numbers, built by hand, read in a meeting, and forgotten by Monday. It tells leadership what happened and hands the people who could change it nothing to do.
And it almost always stops at new business, so the CS side flies blind on the expansion, churn, and renewal signals sitting in the same data. The work was not prettier numbers. It was turning the report into the thing that drove the week, for every motion, automatically.
Solve the seam, wire the stack, split the drag from the judgment.
The weekly report generated itself from the source of truth, so no one spent a day assembling slides. The time went to the action, not the assembly.
AI read across the whole dataset and pulled the insights a person scanning a dashboard would never see: the account quietly cooling, the team over-consuming its seats, the deal whose activity did not match its stage.
The report did not end at a number. It surfaced the hot leads worth working and a deal tracker with every deal risk and next step, each pointed at the rep who could move it.
The same weekly read fed Customer Success: expansion signals, churn-risk flags, and the renewal watch, so CSMs saw the save and the upsell early instead of at the eleventh hour.
One cadence, one read, every motion. The weekly report became the meeting: it aligned GTM around the same truth, forced a bias for action, and made the forecast something the team built together, not argued about.
What was true after that was not true before.
The result, and the detail behind it.
Lead with what changed, then break it down.
The weekly report stopped being a rear-view deck and became the operating rhythm for the whole GTM org: automated so no one built it by hand, AI-read so it surfaced the insights a person would miss, and topped with an action layer for both sales and CS. It moved the numbers that matter: a Deal Confidence Score made the forecast something the team could defend and cut deal slippage by more than half, and reporting, forecasting, and pipeline management finally ran on one consistent rhythm.
A report a leader reads and a report a team acts on are different objects. Automate the assembly, let AI surface the insights a human read misses, and build an action layer for every motion, sales and CS, so one weekly read drives hot leads, expansion, churn saves, renewals, and a forecast the team trusts. The report becomes the operating rhythm, not the rear-view mirror.
The receipts, and what the field says.
From the people I built with.
“In four and a half years and eleven managers at Uber, Heath stood out. Data-driven, leads by example, and made sure every action had a purpose and the numbers to back it.”
“Heath is one of the rarest sales leaders I've learned from. He takes a holistic approach to go-to-market and understands every customer-facing department has a role in growth. I believe he's creating the blueprint for sales leaders to become holistic revenue leaders.”
