About Whitney Krebs

My passion for business development coaching and training was ignited during my short stint in corporate sales. I remember thinking that success in sales was merely luck. I didn’t have the experience or the tools to understand building a sales pipeline. Eventually, through trial and error, I learned to have a thoughtful and strategic approach. As a result, I was no longer “throwing darts at the wall,” made better use of my time, and – most importantly – I was able to develop business. Imagine what I could have done with coaching, training, and mentorship from the start. The tools I acquired during this time have translated well throughout my career. I continue to hone my expertise and leverage more than a decade in legal business development and marketing. Understanding that “selling” doesn’t come naturally for everyone is a cornerstone in my coaching approach. However, I also partner with innate business developers on building sophisticated strategies and continuing to refine their skills. I enjoy being a sounding board and coach to help attorneys reach their business generating potential.
