Top 10 Strategies for Success
“In 2006, I was flat broke. Actually, if I’m honest, from 2002 to 2006 I was flat broke. I had started a consulting business but knew very little about marketing, sales or business management.
Then, BAM! in 2007 I tripled my income from the previous year…all while taking more time off (two 10-day vacations, several 4-5 day trips, etc.) and having a lot more fun in my business.
As people saw my growing success – they started asking “What are you doing differently?” While most people wanted “the silver bullet,” the truth is there was no ONE thing. It was a combination of things. And I didn’t discover these all on my own.
I learned from studying successful people. I saw common strategies, took the recommended actions and changed my results.”
In this book, Nancy shares the strategies she discovered to turn around her business:
- The 2 biggest obstacles to making the kind of money you want this year
- The #1 money making strategy (it’s not what you think it is!)
- The one-key that can make or break any relationship
- The secret to getting anything done – even things you’ve been procrastinating for YEARS!!!
This is your chance to get the same proven advice Nancy now gives her paying coaching clients and which has transformed her business and her life.

Interaction Transaction
How To Elevate Your Confidence, Raise Your Rates & Finally Charge What You Are Worth
While many women business owners are great at connecting with others, they get uncomfortable when moving into the sales conversation and quoting their prices confidently.
This was true for Nancy Roberts who started her consulting business in 2002. After three years of struggling (and racking up $60,000 in debt), Nancy started to learn how to take a prospect from the interaction to the transaction without feeling pushy or aggressive.
Between these pages, Nancy Roberts reveals the exact changes she had to make to go from $30,000 to over $500,000 in her business. Here’s just a few of the topics covered in this book:
- The 5 biggest reasons women struggle with sales and promotion
- The #1 way we make selling awkward right from our initial approach
- Why a lot of networking is a waste of time (and what to do instead to get “the biggest bang for your buck”)
- How the “Law of Attraction” may be keeping you from making the money you want
- The real reason why only 5% of businesses truly thrive and what to do to make sure yours is one of them
“I needed to learn a way to approach a sale that didn’t make me feel awkward. Once I mastered that, selling my services actually came very natural to me. And once that happens – your life will never be the same!” ~ Nancy Roberts
Do you struggle with getting sales in your business? Let Nancy show you how to finally move yourself from interaction to transaction in an easy and authentic way so you too can have the business you want.
“I just read your Interaction to Transaction book and I loved it!! I couldn’t put it down. I read the whole thing in one sitting, taking voracious notes. The most important thing I changed from reading that book was my tendency to find commonalities. I was losing posture because of that habit. Not anymore though. Thanks for being generous enough to do the work to share your wisdom.”
