Why sales operations becomes a report factory
A $1,000,000 target. A $25,000 average deal. A 25% win rate. That is 40 wins and 160 qualified opportunities. The only question is whether your team discovers that math in the last month of the quarter or builds it into the system on day one. In many B2B companies every manager reads the CRM stages differently, the Friday forecast rests on "I feel good about this deal", quotas are copied from last year plus a percentage, and the weekly sales meeting is an hour of status updates without a single decision.
What changes after this course
You run sales operations as one connected system. You translate the plan into deal demand and productive sales capacity. You design territories and quotas you can explain to any seller. You write funnel rules that two managers apply the same way and read pipeline health before it turns into a forecast miss. Your forecast is based on buyer evidence and measured for accuracy. Your scorecard shows only metrics that lead to a decision. And you have a plan for the first 90 days.

Who is teaching
I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe. I am also a founder and lead the strategy of my own academy.
I know this role from the hiring side. At iDeals, a B2B SaaS company, our head of sales opened a vacancy for a sales operations director and wanted a person only from B2B SaaS. We studied the market and found about ten such people. Very soon we had no candidates. We looked at where the sales operations directors of our competitors had come from, saw that several had come from consumer goods, and offered to test people from there with the same criteria and the same test task. The head of sales did not believe in it. Then he saw the scores and the test task and said he had not expected this. We still searched for two more months, found nobody better, made the offer, and that person worked in the company for more than three years. A clear system of criteria is what this role builds for sales.
