Earning a new AWS Competency is a major milestone. It validates your technical expertise, demonstrates customer success, and helps you stand out in a competitive marketplace. While the initial announcement brings well-deserved recognition, sustaining that momentum is key to driving lasting impact. 

That’s where 2A’s competency launch bundle comes in.  

Maximize the impact of your competency with a comprehensive, structured, nine-month-long, always-on campaign designed to keep your message—and the value of your services—front and center. An always-on campaign helps fill any post-launch gaps many partners face by providing a clear, proactive plan to maintain visibility and engagement over time. 
 
Make a splash when you announce your new competency with some of these foundational launch assets: 

  • Animated or UI demo video highlights key features and functionality 
  • Implementation guide helps streamline customer adoption 
  • Internal adoption kit equips internal teams with clear messaging 
  • Roadmap deck communicates upcoming features and milestones 
  • Press release formally announces your new competency and business value 

But don’t stop after the initial announcement! Keep your achievement top of mind by publishing fresh content aligned with key stages in your customers’ buying journey.
