"I would like to thank you for your engaging and informative presentation at the 2025 ERA Conference. Your presentation was what I needed to hear in a time when we are facing so many challenges in developing relationships in our industry. Your presentation material was spot on. The questions you posed to the audience made me think and resolve to make more effort to deepening the relationships I have and guide my actions toward developing new relationships. Your speaking style was smooth and easy to follow. I look forward to opportunities to see you at future events as I know you will bring value."

"ERA was delighted to have Christopher Lins as one of our speakers at our 2025 Conference. This event was attended by over 600 people, so we were very selective as to who we chose to speak.

Chris spoke on “Customer Experience Excellence,” and he was a home run! He held the audience’s attention and gave the attendees some solid takeaways after he spoke. I would give Christopher a high personal and professional recommendation as a speaker and content expert."

"Christopher speaks from the heart with passion and integrity, while sharing real-life lessons and experiences.

His focus on improving the customer experience is critical today, as the old-school way of selling is no longer effective.

A key takeaway from my time with Christopher at the ERA Conference 2025 was that once you do connect with a potential client, you need to be prepared. His simple mantra, "Ask Better Questions," stuck with me. 

On a personal note, I appreciate his enthusiasm, drive, and coaching style and really enjoy engaging with him."

"Chris has a rare ability to take complex ideas and express them in a way that immediately resonates. When he speaks, things that once felt complicated suddenly become clear.

Over time, Chris has become a valuable mentor to me. I've learned so much from the way he thinks and communicates.

What makes Chris exceptional as a speaker is the way he creates those powerful 'Aha' moments for an audience - the kind that make people stop, think, and immediately see things differently.

If you're looking for a speaker who can truly move people and deliver insights that leaders can apply immediately, Chris is exactly the right person."

"I have attended two of Chris's breakout sessions at the ERA conference in Austin, Texas. Chris's style of presenting is very engaging, to the point you genuinely feel a connection to his words and the story he is telling. He uses technology in a way that lets the audience play a role in how he's presenting. His style makes the things you take away from the discussion feel that much more personalized and actionable.

If you have the opportunity to take advice or listen to a keynote session of his, absolutely take it. I've gone to two of them and I can see a third in my future!"

"I attended Christopher Lins’ breakout session at the 2026 National ERA Conference, 'Turning

Strategic Relationships into Innovation Engines,' and it was one of the most practical sessions I

joined. Chris made a compelling case that in today’s market, trust and human connection are

the real differentiators. 

He shared a clear, intentional approach to building trust-first relationships and offered actionable ideas I could use immediately as a Manufacturers’ Rep to

deepen customer engagement and accelerate growth. 

I highly recommend Chris for future

speaking and training opportunities."
