About Stephen
Stephen E. Boutelle
I install operating infrastructure for RevOps / CRM consultants so pipeline + follow-up don’t reset under delivery spikes.
Delivery spikes don’t kill pipeline. Open loops do.
The fix isn’t more hustle. It’s operating cadence.
What I do
Most capable RevOps/CRM consultants don’t struggle because they lack skill, tools, or frameworks.
They struggle because their own execution becomes volatile under client load — and pipeline activity becomes optional.
I help you install a simple weekly operating cadence so:
- follow-up stays consistent (even during delivery spikes)
- pipeline movement doesn’t depend on bandwidth
- delivery work ships in a build order (less thrash, fewer open loops)
The rule I work from
Effort starts paying off only when it’s captured, clarified, and micro-corrected.
Without that, effort leaks — no matter how smart or experienced you are.
Micro-Correction (two lines after the rep):
Result: (observable)
Next time I will: (one change only)
Most people run: Action → Outcome → Emotion → Reset
Operators run: Action → Outcome → Micro-Correction → Adjust → Repeat

Background (short version)
I’ve studied direct response marketing since 1984 and have worked in research, advisement, and product creation in online marketing since 2001.
I’ve also spent decades in roles where clarity, documentation, and execution mattered more than hype.
The through-line: the moment you install a closed loop for execution, results stabilize — and effort starts compounding instead of evaporating.
