💰 Sell it as a service
The offer
Sell a sales-call-intelligence setup: install Grain across the client's sales team, build custom AI note templates and HubSpot/Salesforce sync, and deliver a weekly call-insights report with coaching flags.
What to charge
$1,500 setup + $300–$500/mo for the reporting retainer. The client's tool cost is only $15–$29/seat/mo, so your fee stays an easy yes even on a 3-rep team.
How it gets delivered
Setup is 1–2 days: connect calendars and CRM, write 3–5 custom AI prompts per call type, run a 30-minute team training. The weekly report comes straight from Grain's insights and shared clips.
