#81 Why Executives Don’t Trust the Data – with Rhys Williams, Founder & Managing Partner at Domestique

Rhys Williams, Founder of RevOps agency Domestique, joins the show to talk about one of the most frustrating (and familiar) realities in GTM: executives don’t trust the data. But the real issue? It’s almost never about the dashboard. In this episode, Rhys walks through a practical, systems-level approach to rebuilding trust in data—from strategic alignment to process design and cross-functional buy-in.

We cover:

  • Why “I don’t trust the data” rarely means bad reporting

  • The foundational role of GTM strategy and lifecycle stages

  • How to align MQL definitions across Marketing and Sales

  • Tooling traps, reverse-engineered metrics, and the danger of dashboard overload

  • How to use operating cadences like the “Demand Council” to drive alignment

  • Why RevOps teams must lead with analysis and recommendations—not just data
