AWS Marketing Partnership Workshops

Genesys needed a way to create internal alignment, across all of its regions, around communicating and co-selling its partnership with Amazon Web Services

Challenges:

  • The existing sales materials were different from region to region

  • The materials leaned heavily on technical terms instead of customer value

  • The materials could not be leveraged by Amazon Web Services; only Genesys

The team ran several workshops to create alignment around key users and what the overall value proposition was for them. Our questions were, how might we:

  • Build our co-selling materials with empathy as a driver

  • Ensure customer-focused messaging is consistent across regions

  • Create cross-regional messaging that can be utilized by both Genesys & AWS

Within three months, we drafted new assets around agreed upon user archetypes, one overall value proposition message, and built more empathy and alignment across the disparate marketing groups

By 2024, informed by the work we had done, Genesys launched a new partnership campaign and video, emphasizing experiences, trust and empathy, centered around the user’s jobs to be done
