Amazon is investing more in marketing and salespeople "to handle a wider group of customers," Chief Financial Officer Brian Olsavsky said in its quarterly earnings call on Thursday.
Tech industry analyst Patrick Moorhead said Amazon's $2.3 billion in cloud sales growth for the quarter is "larger than the size of most cloud company's revenue" and chalked its revenue growth decline up to the "law of large numbers."Amazon Web Services is hiring more sales and marketing people, as the dominant cloud computing business fends off challengers including Microsoft, the Seattle-based company disclosed Thursday.
"We are investing a lot more this year in salesforce and marketing personnel mainly to handle a wider group of customers, an increasingly wide group of products – we continue to add thousands of products and features a year – and we continue to expand geographically," Olsavsky said of AWS.. Microsoft, meanwhile, has a long history of selling to large enterprise companies.
They need this segment of busines to continue its monster growth its the biggest reasons as to why Amazon has a postive net income without AWS growth they have no profit or capital to fuel their growth and the competition is getting fierce.
