What's the best way to break into the tech industry as a revenue operations manager?
To enter the tech industry as revenue operations manager, you're potentially trying to make 2 moves at once:
Entering the tech industry from another industry
Taking on a revenue operations manager role from another non rev ops role
If you are trying to make both moves at once, you may want to consider making one change at a time. The benefits of doing so are:
Easier to market yourself to the hiring manager by only making one transition (e.g. you already have rev ops experience in non-tech industry or you're already in tech and are trying to transition in to rev ops)
The learning curve may be flatter with one move, better setting up you for success
Additionally, when entering rev ops in tech, you'll want understand if the tech company is a hardware vs software or hybrid. The GTM operations for SW vs HW can be quite different and you'll want to be familiar with their differences. Also, even within software companies, whether their revenue model is subscription vs consumption based (i.e. pay only for what you use) impacts their GTM motion.
