SUMMARY:Lunch N Learn: The Sales System Early-Stage Founders Need
DESCRIPTION:You’re building something real. But if revenue isn’t consistent\, chances are you don’t have a business problem — you have a selling problem. And nobody has told you the truth about what selling actually takes\, or how AI can do the heavy lifting once you learn the skill. \nJoin us for a Lunch & Learn with Christina Kokologiannakis\, Income Jump Architect & Strategist and founder of the Time Billionaire Society.

For the past six years she has coached entrepreneurs on how to find their Income Jump — the pivot that cuts the work in half while multiplying the revenue. She is the founder of the Time Billionaire Society\, built around one idea: your time is your most valuable asset and the business should fund the life not consume it. \nWhat you’ll walk away with: \n\nWhy selling feels hard — and what to actually do about it\nA practical sales framework you can use immediately\nHow AI builds and runs your sales engine while you focus on the work you love\nA clear picture of what’s possible when your business stops running you\n\nThis session is conversational\, interactive\, and built for founders who are ready to stop avoiding the sale and start building the skill. \n📅 July\, 9 | 11:30am – 1:30pm | 📍 Nashville Entrepreneur Center \nAgenda: \n11:30 AM – 12 PM: Lunch & Networking\n12 PM – 1:15 PM: Programming by Christina\n1:15 PM – 1:30 PM: Wrap up & Networking \nThank you to our Community Partner Comstasis and AMA Nashville for making this event possible.
