Monthly Luncheon (Thursday, April 23, 2026)

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 18:00:00 GMT

Speaker: Lynn Whitbeck, Scalable Sales

Topic: Your Winning Blueprint for Scalable Sales and Business Growth

Sales is the engine that fuels every successful business. But too many business owners rely on inconsistent effort, unpredictable results, and hope as a strategy.

What if you had a clear, repeatable blueprint that would allow you to close more clients, increase revenue, and scale with confidence?

In this high-impact session, Lynn Whitbeck, the Queen of Sales, reveals the three foundational principles behind predictable, scalable sales growth. You will discover how to align your messaging with what your ideal clients actually care about, implement a proven sales blueprint that eliminates chaos, and master follow-up so opportunities no longer slip through the cracks.

No pushy tactics. No complicated funnels. Just a clear, client-centered strategy that works.

You will walk away with practical tools to:

Attract and engage ideal clients faster using Client Thinking
Implement a proven, scalable sales blueprint that creates consistent results
Increase close rates through strategic follow-up that builds trust and momentum

Perpetual sales success does not happen by accident. It happens when you follow a proven plan that allows you to attract, connect, and close your ideal clients—again and again.

This is your blueprint.

PLEASE NOTE: A boxed lunch *is not* included in the base ticket price: During registration, you will have the option to purchase a boxed lunch for $20, provided by Gourmondo. The base ticket price includes beverages.

Deadline: Registrations that include a box lunch order will close end of day on Tuesday, April 21.

About Our Speaker

Lynn Whitbeck is the Strategic Sales Queen. Business Owners hire Lynn to ignite winning sales, because most fail to create consistent, repeatable, and scalable growth. Lynn is the Founder and CEO of Strategic Sales Queen, Amazon Best-Selling Author, Speaker, and Host of Claim Your Career Crown and the Get More Clients shows. She loves visiting National Parks, cooking, and playing Pokémon Go.

About Our Speaker

Kristine Scott survived a childhood where rage was used to control situations. This left her both deeply curious about nonviolence and dedicated to emotional regulation. She is now the founder and chief trainer for Seattle Conflict Resolution. Distilling over 20 years of lessons from high-incident social service settings has honed her mastery in non-violent conflict response.

As of 2026, Ms. Scott has trained over 37,000 people to bring their best selves into the worst situations. She actively fights for a future where the energy of conflict gets harnessed to create systemic change, not division. In addition to being a trainer, Kristine is also an activist and media source (USA Today).

She is a single mom, enjoys playing with her dog, Kung fu, hiking the Pacific Northwest, and projects requiring power tools.
