Build a Real Revenue Engine (Leak-Proof) with Marcus Chan

Are you “fixing pipeline” while millions leak out the bottom of your funnel? In this episode of Bridge the Gap, we sit down with Marcus Chan, founder & CEO of Venli Consulting, creator of Revenue Engine OS, and WSJ bestselling author, to show you how to build a real revenue engine that scales on systems, not heroics. Marcus has led a $195M org and helped 700+ companies recover nearly $1B in hidden revenue. We break down discovery that actually converts, management cadences that raise the floor, and why “more pipeline” is the wrong answer to a win-rate problem. 🔑 Key Highlights ✓ Discovery vs. qualification: stop using BANT like a script ✓ Frameworks that scale thinking (POWERFUL, RIM) without turning reps into robots ✓ Diagnose before you prescribe: audits, scorecards, and root-cause analysis ✓ Build assets (playbooks, CRM fields, enablement) that compound ✓ What to measure (and what to ignore): win rate, cycle time, conversion, not vanity coverage If you’re a founder, CRO, VP of Sales or RevOps, or a GTM leader who needs predictable growth without adding headcount, this episode is for you.
