Australia's first AI-native Revenue Operating Partner

Revenue Operating
Partners.

Growing businesses need more than a fractional hire. The RVOP™ System diagnoses the revenue engine, builds the blueprint, and activates the people to run it.

The fractional CRO market is full. Full of day rates, playbooks, and people who leave.

Phase 01

Revenue Intelligence Assessment

30-day diagnostic. Identify the real revenue ceiling and the three opportunities worth 10x the engagement fee.

RIA™

Phase 02

Revenue Operating Blueprint

The execution architecture. ICP, pipeline framework, sales process, pricing governance, and RevOps foundation.

ROB™

Phase 03

Execution Playbook

Every tool, template, and workflow the team needs to run the revenue engine without ongoing dependency on Jove.

EP™

Phase 04

Continuous Revenue Intelligence

Retained oversight. Monthly diagnostics. Quarterly recalibration. The fund-level view across the portfolio.

CRI™

What AI-native actually means
in a revenue context.

Not AI as a buzzword. Not a chatbot bolted onto an advisory retainer. AI is embedded in how the RVOP™ System works at every phase. Four pillars. Each one compresses time-to-insight and improves execution precision.

01

AI-Assisted Revenue Diagnostics

Pattern recognition across pipeline data, sales activity, conversion rates, and market signals. The RIA™ identifies root causes in days, not weeks. AI doesn't replace the operator judgment. It removes the noise so the judgment lands on the right problem.

02

AI for GTM Content and Sales Enablement

ICP definitions, value propositions, outbound sequences, objection handling, and proposal frameworks. Built with AI. Tested against the market. Deployed faster than any traditional content process. The sales team gets tools that work on day one.

03

AI for CRM Automation and RevOps

Pipeline hygiene, forecast accuracy, and reporting that doesn't require a RevOps hire to maintain. AI-driven CRM workflows that give the CEO visibility without administrative overhead. The revenue engine runs on data, not intuition.

04

AI for Market Research and Competitive Intelligence

Continuous monitoring of competitor positioning, pricing signals, and market movement. The CRI™ phase keeps the revenue strategy current. Portfolio companies don't get caught flat-footed by a market shift they could have seen coming.

A revenue engine has four parts.
Most businesses are missing two of them.

The RVOP™ System is a four-phase engagement model. Each phase delivers a named output. No open-ended retainers. No ambiguous deliverables. The system compresses 18 months of revenue improvement into 90 days.

Delivered within 30 days

Phase 01

Revenue Intelligence Assessment

The diagnostic that finds what the pipeline data is hiding.

Most revenue problems are misdiagnosed. The symptom is visible. The root cause isn't. A pipeline coverage problem is often a qualification problem. A closing problem is often a value proposition problem. A growth plateau is often a channel concentration problem disguised as a sales team problem. The RIA™ cuts through the symptom layer in 30 days.

  • Revenue engine maturity assessment across sales, marketing, and operations
  • Pipeline health analysis: conversion rates, velocity, forecast accuracy, stage distribution
  • ICP validation and market sizing against current go-to-market motion
  • Technology stack review: what's working, what's redundant, what's missing
  • Team capability assessment and structural gaps
  • Three opportunities identified worth more than 10x the engagement fee

Commitment: three opportunities worth more than 10x the fee. Defined. Delivered.

ROB™

Revenue Operating Blueprint
Delivered within 60 days

Phase 02

Revenue Operating Blueprint

The execution architecture for the next 12 months of growth.

Strategy without execution architecture is expensive decoration. The ROB™ translates the RIA™ findings into a precise, executable blueprint. Every component of the revenue engine is specified: who does what, with which tools, to which targets, measured by which metrics. The management team doesn't get recommendations. They get a system.

  • ICP definition, segmentation model, and account targeting framework
  • Go-to-market motion design: channels, sequences, and conversion architecture
  • Sales process documentation and pipeline stage criteria
  • Pricing governance framework and discount authority structure
  • CRM architecture requirements and RevOps foundation design
  • KPI framework, reporting cadence, and forecast methodology
  • 90-day execution roadmap with owners, milestones, and dependencies

EP™

Execution Playbook
Delivered within 90 days

Phase 03

Execution Playbook

Every tool and workflow the team needs to run the engine without Jove.

The goal of the RVOP™ System is not dependency. It is capability transfer. The EP™ packages every tool, template, script, and workflow the management team needs to run the revenue engine independently. This is where AI-native methodology becomes visible: AI-generated sales content, automated pipeline workflows, and intelligence dashboards that don't require a RevOps specialist to maintain.

  • Sales playbook: messaging, objection handling, discovery framework, and close plans
  • AI-assisted outbound sequences and content library
  • CRM configuration, pipeline hygiene protocols, and reporting dashboards
  • Onboarding programme for new sales hires
  • Competitive intelligence framework and market monitoring setup
  • Manager coaching guide and performance review cadence

Ongoing retained engagement

Phase 04

Continuous Revenue Intelligence

The fund-level view. Monthly diagnostics. Quarterly recalibration.

Revenue strategy has a shelf life. Markets shift. Competitors reprice. The ICP that worked 12 months ago doesn't work now. The CRI™ is the retained oversight layer that keeps the revenue engine current. For PE funds, it provides portfolio-wide pattern recognition that no single portco engagement can generate. One operating partner. The whole portfolio.

  • Monthly revenue diagnostics: pipeline health, conversion trends, leading indicators
  • Quarterly strategy recalibration: ICP, pricing, channel mix, and growth roadmap
  • Portfolio-wide benchmarking and pattern recognition
  • GP/board reporting: revenue engine health scorecard and investment implications
  • Ongoing AI-assisted competitive intelligence and market monitoring

Built by an operator.
Not pitched by one.

The RVOP™ System is not a framework borrowed from a business school case study. It is the distilled product of 20 years of building revenue engines in PE-backed environments: 10x team scale, $100M+ in revenue grown, and exits delivered.

David Hodgson

Revenue Operating Partner. Jove Advisors.

I have held the bag. Built the team. Missed the forecast. Closed the deal. Hired the wrong person and fixed it in front of the team. That history is the product. The RVOP™ System is what I wish existed when I was building high-growth businesses.

I founded Jove Advisors to bring the Revenue Operating Partner model to Australian businesses that are serious about growth. The AI-native methodology is not positioning. It is how the diagnostic actually runs, how the content gets built, and how the CRM gets automated.

2005–2012 Change management, operational reengineering, strategy planning. Building the operational foundation that revenue growth sits on.
2012–2015 Chief Revenue Officer APJ. Revenue growth exceeding 75%. Sales team growth 10x. 200-person regional team. Exit to Accenture.
2015–2023 Head of Financial Services. Head of Delivery. Head of Partnerships. Average sales growth 65%+ YoY. Financial Services practice from zero to market-leading. PE-backed environments throughout.
2023–now Founder, Jove Advisors. CRO advisor, GTM strategy, AI-native revenue advisory. Clients: Pemba Capital Partners, Locatrix, UrbanX, Noot Drink, Fibre Boats.

The fractional CRO model is efficient for the operator but structurally misaligned for the client. A part-time executive without skin in the outcome will always deprioritise your business.
