Situation

Flex, a Series A FinTech startup backed by $120 million in equity and debt, was positioned to revolutionize financial services with its finance super-app, credit, and banking solution for business owners. Operating in a competitive market, Flex relied on an account-based go-to-market (GTM) strategy powered by outbound sales motions and event-driven marketing. However, inefficiencies in their revenue operations (RevOps) ecosystem created significant roadblocks.

With a lean team, Flex needed to optimize every aspect of their GTM execution—spanning customer acquisition, onboarding, and revenue retention—to maintain their hyper-growth trajectory.
