Four steps, in order. Demand, qualification, routing, delivery. Each one tightens the funnel.

IV Guarantee

A signed promise, not a brochure line.

90 DAY
10
DEALS / OR FREE

10 routed deals in 90 days, or your next quarter is free.

If we do not route at least ten qualified, scoring-passed opportunities to your firm in your first 90 days, your next quarter of membership is on us. We keep working until they arrive.

01A qualified deal is one that has cleared our discovery call and written AWS readiness assessment (workload sizing, MAP / OLA eligibility, region fit).
02You must respond to routed deals within five business days for them to count.
03Continued service, not a refund — the relationship and the routing pipeline keep running.
04One claim per partner per region. Activates automatically. No paperwork.
II the numbers

First-cohort pipeline. Real figures, honestly dated.

CloudRoute opened to partners in Q1 2026. These are the actual cohort numbers — small, specific, dated. We publish the floor and let partners decide if the ramp is worth the membership. As the cohort grows, the panel updates.

VI Compare

Versus everything else.

Most demand-gen options for APN partners are some flavor of Marketplace listing, hired BDR, or generic lead-gen agency. Here is how they actually compare.

I Partners receive

What you get.

Six things, in plain English. The point is to remove friction between qualified demand and your delivery team.

01

Pre-qualified AWS leads

Already scoped through our discovery call and a written AWS readiness assessment — workload, MAP / OLA eligibility, region. Real opportunities only.

02

Aligned, not extractive

A flat monthly membership keeps us focused on fit, not volume. Plus a referral commission on closed deals — no hidden fees, no markup.

03

Matched to your strengths

We route by region, industry, technical fit, and APN tier (Select / Advanced / Premier). You will not waste cycles on poor-fit deals.

04

Protected pipeline

Once a lead is routed to you, it is yours for ninety days. No double-routing, no internal competition.

05

Co-branded assessment

You receive a warmed-up client and a written AWS readiness report — workload, MAP eligibility, sizing — that you can close on. The hard part is done.

06

Priority for top performers

Quarterly review. Partners who close well receive first look at the next quarter's flow.

III Commission

What CloudRoute earns.

Flat 10% on every closed-Won deal — no tiers, no renegotiation. You collect from the client, then settle with us within 30 days. Run the numbers on your own deal size below.

III partner wins

Three shapes a routed engagement takes.

Composite cases assembled from the first cohort and partner pilots — anonymized to preserve customer privacy. Each one shows a different partner size, deal shape, and AWS funding mechanic. Real-name case studies replace these as customers consent.

uk · advanced · 8-consultant boutiqueillustrative
UK-based Advanced AWS partner, 8 consultants, healthcare + life-sciences specialty, joined CloudRoute in Q1.
→ problem

We had two great delivery leads and zero outbound capacity. Every deal came from one founder's network, which had hit its ceiling. We'd looked at hiring an SDR — the math was $120K loaded for a 9-month ramp and a coin-flip on fit.

→ routed to

Joined as Advanced ($7.5K/mo). Region: UK + Ireland. Specialty tags: healthcare, HIPAA / NHS, off-Heroku, Bedrock.

→ outcome

First routed deal landed in 11 days. Closed 2 MAP-funded migrations and 1 Bedrock POC in the first 90 days — $340K in total partner revenue. Two of the three had AWS-filed funding attached, so the cash showed up faster than typical project work.

aws funding unlocked$215,000
First routed deal → first signed SOW: 23 days.

We replaced what would have been a year of SDR experiments with a $22.5K quarterly bet that paid back inside the first two deals. The readiness assessment did the qualifying work my team would have skipped.

Managing Director
us · select · founder-led shopillustrative
Founder-led Select AWS partner in the US (Austin), 4 consultants + 2 contractors. Two AWS certs across the team. Mostly small-business migrations and devops retainers.
→ problem

I'd been the only seller for three years. Every deal traced back to one Slack community, two conference connections, and a referral loop from one VC. When I stopped pitching for a month to deliver, pipeline went to zero. I needed deals I didn't personally source.

→ routed to

Joined as Select ($5K/mo). Region: US central + south. Specialty tags: off-Heroku, devops retainer, Postgres on RDS.

→ outcome

8 routed leads in the first quarter, 3 closed at $48K–$72K each. None of them came from my network — which was the whole point. Total $172K closed against a $15K quarterly spend, and I'm no longer the only seller in the company.

aws funding unlocked$48,000
0 of 3 closed deals came from a network I had to maintain.

For the first time since starting this firm, I had a pipeline that didn't depend on me being at a conference. The Select tier paid for itself on the second close.

Founder
mena · premier · regional pipeline fill-inillustrative
Premier AWS partner headquartered in Dubai, 35 consultants across UAE + KSA + Egypt. Strong on government and BFSI; weak on commercial mid-market.
→ problem

Government cycles are 9–14 months. Our commercial mid-market pipeline runs hot and cold and we'd been carrying salaries for benched consultants for two quarters. We didn't need lead-gen everywhere — we needed it specifically in commercial SaaS / fintech in the GCC, where our marketing wasn't landing.

→ routed to

Joined as Premier ($10K/mo) with region-locked routing to GCC commercial SaaS + fintech (no government routing — they handle that channel themselves).

→ outcome

5 enterprise routed deals in Q2, 3 closed inside the quarter. Average deal size $240K. Two of three had migration funding filed by us against the deal — so the revenue mix shifted toward AWS-funded engagements, which made the CFO's month.

aws funding unlocked$510,000
Bench utilization 71% → 94% inside one quarter.

The point wasn't replacing our pipeline — it was filling the bench between government tranches. The routing did exactly that, and it's region-locked the way we asked for.

IV Terms

In plain English.

Eight clauses, no boilerplate. The full agreement is two pages and signed at kickoff.

Quarterly. Membership commits you to a 90-day cycle, billed monthly at the rate set on your kickoff call (from $5K). The cycle aligns with our routed-lead guarantee window.

None. Keep your own pipeline. We route leads, you deliver. We do not require category lock-in.

You agree not to directly solicit leads we introduce for twenty-four months post-introduction. Standard, mutual, plain English.

A ninety-day protection window from the day we hand off. After that, the lead returns to the pool.

If close-rate falls below 20% on routed deals over a six-month window, we pause routing and review together. No surprises.

A fifteen-minute monthly pipeline sync. A quarterly performance review. Nothing more.

At the end of any quarterly cycle with thirty days' notice. Existing deals in flight are honored to completion.

Membership billed monthly. Commission is a flat 10% on every closed-Won deal — you collect from the client, then settle with us within thirty days.

X Questions

Everyone asks these.

Free models pay themselves through commission, hidden fees, or selling your data — which means they are incentivized to push volume, not fit. Membership keeps us focused on routing the right deals to the right APN partners. You also get a slot guarantee, written AWS readiness assessments, and the routing priority that comes with paid status. Most "free" options will not deliver a single qualified deal in the same window.

Our 90-day guarantee covers it: if we do not hit your routed-lead target in your first quarter, your next quarter is free. We keep working at no cost until the pipeline catches up. The exact target is set with you on the kickoff call based on your firm's deal-size band.

No. Run your own outbound, your own paid, your own partner relationships. We add a stream, we do not replace yours.

A prospect that has completed our 30-minute discovery call and passed our written AWS readiness assessment — workload scoped, MAP / OLA eligibility flagged, region and timeline confirmed. Real budget, real timeline, real workload. Not an MQL, not a cold reply.

Demand-gen has a ramp curve. Thirty days is not enough to judge supply, and our guarantee is built around 90-day cohorts. The contract is quarterly across all tiers. Billing is monthly so cash flow stays clean.

We pause routing and review together. Usually it is a fit issue we can tune — wrong industry, wrong deal-size band, wrong handoff. We adjust before we resume.

You do. Once routed, the deal is yours for 90 days, and the client relationship is yours indefinitely once closed. CloudRoute does not stay in the loop.

SEO and content for high-intent AWS terms (MAP, Bedrock, modernization, Marketplace, Well-Architected), paid acquisition on LinkedIn and Google, advisory relationships with AWS PSAs and account teams, and inbound from our published assessments. All channels feed one funnel.

VI Network

Three to five partners per region.

V Why it works

What we believe.

Three principles. They explain every routing decision we make.

01

Judgment is more valuable than labor.

02

The best partner is rarely the one who bids loudest.

03

Independence is a feature. We protect it.
