Why each option
The primary purpose of using the Cisco Services Solution story is to educate customers on the broader relevance and value of Cisco services, extending beyond basic support and deployment.
While a good story might indirectly help an account manager, its primary goal is not to enhance the sales experience for the salesperson, but to communicate value to the customer.
The goal is to set realistic and achievable expectations of positive outcomes, not merely to raise expectations which could lead to dissatisfaction if not met.
The Cisco Services Solution story is designed to elevate customer perception of Cisco services, showcasing their strategic value and relevance beyond traditional break-fix support or simple deployments. It helps customers understand how Cisco services can drive innovation, accelerate adoption, and achieve greater business outcomes throughout the entire technology lifecycle.
While it provides a clear way to discuss services, the specific emphasis of the "Solution story" is to expand the customer's understanding of relevance and breadth, not just to discuss services that all customers need.
