two, three hundred dollars a month for just their regular plan. So that's one of the things that we wanted to kind of strategically talk through. What does that look like or what was kind of your vision of how that might play out with DWS? Are you planning on saying this is enterprise DWS?

DWS x Ranking Reels — Enterprise Deal Room
BUILT FROM DOCS + FIREFLIES CALL MAY 8, 2026
No generic audit. Deal-closing angle.
Make Dawood impossible to ignore before the enterprise sales call.
DWS already has the hard parts: Hreflang Builder, RankWatch, AI SEO packages, link intelligence, real enterprise names, and a CEO who can sell. Ranking Reels becomes the visibility engine that gets those assets seen, trusted, and remembered.
DAWOOD SIGNAL: "Cold outreach is sorted"
STATED GAP: Be in their face
ENTERPRISE WEDGE: Hreflang + AI SEO
Close line: Dawood, your offer is stronger than your public visibility. Let's fix that first.
Close thesis: Do not pitch "content." Pitch a 30-day proof sprint that turns Dawood's existing enterprise pitch into searchable, syndicate-able, sales-ready authority assets.
CLOSE ASK: 30-day sprint, Show RR Proof
May 14, 03:18 PM
