SUMMARY:New England ERA Educational Dinner featuring Chris Lins
DESCRIPTION:You’re Invited! Join New England ERA for an enjoyable evening\, with dinner and presentation by Christopher Lins\, founder and fractional executive officer\, The Lins Co.! \nLins will present\, “The Human Edge: Winning the Deal When Everyone Has the Same AI.” \nThis session is about what still separates the salesperson who consistently wins from the ones who fall behind\, or worse\, get ignored. It’s the parts of the job AI can draft but never actually do: the curiosity to ask a question the customer never said out loud\, the judgment to bend when the algorithm says\, “standard terms\,” and the presence a customer feels when you genuinely listen. \nLins will show you exactly where leaning too hard on AI quietly wears down the skills that win and grow accounts\, and how to flip that around so the tool (and AI is just a tool) buys you more time to be more human\, not less. \nDATE & TIME:\nWednesday\, Nov. 4\, 2026\n5:30 p.m. EDT \nLOCATION:\nLuna Rossa\n1699 Shawsheen St\nTewksbury\, MA 01876 \nCOST:\n$75 per person — includes dinner \nREGISTER TODAY!
