In a press release dated 8 August 2024, TENIOS announced a partnership with Deutsche Stadtmarketing GmbH, an online marketing agency that has advised German small and medium-sized businesses since 2008. TENIOS describes the arrangement as giving the agency’s clients access to its voicebot, and giving TENIOS a route into a segment it would otherwise have to reach one company at a time.
Both parties are quoted in the announcement. Stefan Kovacs, then managing director of TENIOS, said the partnership brought the company closer to the needs of smaller firms wanting to improve their communication processes. Matthias Kant of Deutsche Stadtmarketing said he had looked specifically for a voicebot supplier with telecoms operator experience and a focus on the German market.
According to the same release, the agency’s work with those firms extends to helping them apply for public funding, and inbound voicebot scenarios for restaurants, medical practices and trade businesses had already been built at the time of the announcement. The original is published in German.
