Success Stories
Before attending the Speak Like a Pro Workshop with
Rochelle, I considered myself a good speaker, but I knew
I could improve. I signed up for her 2-day event
thinking I would get some good tips and network with
other attendees. Little did I know this workshop would
be the best 2-day event I’ve ever attended!
Within a few short hours, I was crafting my personal story and rewriting my signature speech (something I didn’t think I needed to do). The information Rochelle provided and the easy-to-use templates for crafting an amazing, engaging speech gave me the tools I need to write and deliver presentations that will convert the audience into paying customers. In addition, Rochelle created a safe space in the room for all of the attendees to practice, share, and get to know one another on a deeper level.
I walked away from the event with a confidence that I can sell from the stage and knowing how to put on my own live event. Even better, I left with a handful of prospective client and JV meetings set up! If you have the opportunity to attend the Speak Like a Pro Workshop, do it! It’s one of the best investments you will make for yourself and your company.

Before attending the Speak Like A Pro Workshop with
Rochelle, I knew that becoming a speaker would elevate
my profile and be highly beneficial for my business.
However, I lacked clear focus on how to create a program
that would bring value to my listeners in a clear and
concise manner, and with continuity.
Then I attended Rochelle's workshop and was blown away by the experience! Not only is Rochelle an accomplished professional speaker, but also a great teacher. Rochelle helped all of us — from public speaking novices to seasoned professionals — expertly craft our presentations, practice some amazingly effective techniques to engage our audiences, and understand the importance of not letting the end of the presentation be the end of the relationship.
The three most significant results I achieved are that I am now completely confident I can deliver an engaging talk, I can — and want to — share my personal story, and I know how to effectively tell others about my products and services from the front of the room without being salesy.
Rochelle, thank you for the many breakthroughs I experienced during your Speak Like A Pro Workshop! You are amazing!

Before attending the Speak Like a Pro Workshop with
Rochelle, I was interested in speaking to business
owners on the significance of branding their companies
effectively. Being a visual person, I didn’t know if I
was a good speaker or if I could even write a speech. I
found out in this workshop that not only was I a natural
speaker, but I also was shown how easy it is to write a
compelling speech that hooks the audience and keeps them
attentive to the end.
I am now more confident in my speaking skills and have already made arrangements for my first in-person speaking event. Thank you, Rochelle for helping discover this new outspoken me.

The workshop was fabulous! I received so much value
for this — it was exactly what I needed and I cannot
thank you enough! You are great. I loved every minute.
This is information that I can actually use — not a lot
of “fluff” that so many programs do. Very authentic!

I've been speaking at local business groups and knew
this was something I wanted to pursue. I attended the
Speak Like A Pro Workshop with Rochelle to up my
game and improve my presentation skills. The interactive
format was just what I needed. I perfected my go-to
presentation, and more importantly, Rochelle showed me
how to connect with the audience and the best way to
deliver my message. An unexpected bonus; the amazing
connections I made with the other attendees!

Rochelle's 'Speak Like a Pro Intensive Workshop'
was life-changing for me! I left that weekend with so many
gifts — discovering my true passion, claiming it,
learning how to express it clearly and authentically to
others, reaching out and feeling supported by others
while learning the skills to communicate effectively,
and feeling confident in myself and in my plan to move
forward in my life and power. Thank you, Rochelle, for
being just the catalyst I needed at the time I needed
it. Your program and you have been invaluable to me!

Before attending your seminar, I had all the excuses in the world for not speaking in public. I could talk to people one on one but when it came to addressing a group of people, I lacked confidence. After attending your seminar, I feel I have broken the misconception that I will fail as a speaker. Thanks to you and your super coaching!
You made us realize all the barriers are self created and showed us how to eliminate those barriers. Also, I loved the step by step approach where you first had us practice with one person, then in front of a small group, and then finally the larger audience. It really helped me — I didn’t feel overwhelmed.
Thank you for giving 100% and creating a friendly environment to bring the best out of ourselves.
I certainly would recommend this seminar to anyone who wants to break through the fear of public speaking and take the first step.

I attended Rochelle’s Inner Game of Sales
Event because, as a small business owner, knowing how to sell my products
and services is paramount to my success! With that said, I knew I didn’t
want or need some typical sales-y type of sales coaching, rather I wanted
sales training with heart and soul…and that’s exactly what I got from
Rochelle. In three short days, Rochelle showed us how to sell from our
hearts, while also getting results!
What I loved best about Rochelle’s training is the wisdom she shared about how important our MINDSET is to our sales success. She helped me see how important it is to develop and nurture a healthy mindset because when it comes to increasing sales, you can learn all the strategies and tactics—but if you don’t think you can do it, you can’t. Rochelle had us delve into our own mindset in a way that was not intimidating but very liberating!
Rochelle Togo-Figa lights up the stage, is a pure joy to learn from, and made me feel like MY success was the most important thing in the world to her. Rochelle’s authenticity and humor enhanced her ability to teach many attendees how to sell with ease and grace, while also increasing their confidence in their own ability to do so!

I had been working with Rochelle for about 3 months of one-on-one
sales coaching prior to attending her workshop. As a new entrepreneur, after
a successful corporate career, I needed direction and guidance on how to
sell myself and my business. Rochelle provides the sales expertise I need to
gain more clients and ensure my business is growing.
To be specific, after my first, one-on-one business coaching session with Rochelle, I was able to use one of Inner Game of Sales strategies on a sales call and won $10,000 in business immediately. Since the sales workshop, I have successfully been able to follow up on business that was “hanging” and move it to the next level or get the answer I needed.
Rochelle provides a level of authenticity and genuineness to the sales process, which matches my approach and style. At the workshop she inspired, encouraged, and challenged us to reach for our dreams. I am now a proud participant in her VIP program, gaining additional momentum for my business—knowing I will be soaring in no time.

For many years, my business flourished and grew just from referrals.
Then the economy crashed and everything stopped. I knew I had to get out
there and find business, but I had no idea how to do that. I was getting
tired and overwhelmed.
At the Inner Game of Sales Breakthroughs workshop, I learned I’m not alone. Rochelle showed me ways how to market my business and myself and helped me create a vision of how I want my business to be. I left the workshop with the energy of someone 15 years younger!
I knew then I wanted to become a Breakthrough VIP Client, and committed to making the investment. Rochelle is helping me to organize the business I always wanted. We are working on reaching my ideal clients, improving my networking, social media, and follow-up skills.

I want to tell you how much I enjoyed the Inner Game of Sales
Workshop! I came to your workshop because I lacked the confidence to close
the sale and was losing business as a result. I also was failing to follow
up because I wasn’t sure what to say and didn’t want to appear pushy. I left
your workshop excited and filled with new sales ideas to grow business.
I’ve already started to implement the follow-up strategies you shared and it’s working! In only 2 months after applying one of your sales strategies, I closed $30,000 in sales! I’m now feeling confident and more liberated about my business. Thank you for sharing yourself and all your knowledge with us.

Before I met Rochelle, I knew how to hypnotize people, but I did not
know how to close sales or manage my business. Rochelle coached me for a
six-month period and in that time, I accomplished all of my initial goals
and am well on my way to meeting (and exceeding) my 12-month goals. In fact,
in the first 2 months of coaching with Rochelle, I exceeded my goals by
bringing in 11 new clients.
Not only did Rochelle teach me how to sell my business and myself, she also helped me to develop my website, marketing materials, promotional items, and even referred me to the best photographer to do my headshot. She also referred new clients to me, suggested groups to speak to and the best networking groups to join.
However, the thing that impacted me most was how much Rochelle clearly cared, not only about my success, but about me as a person. She really listened, letting me talk about my underlying fears and emotions pertaining to running my own business. She helped me shift the way I was thinking about my business. I now have the entrepreneurial skills to take my business farther than I had ever dreamed, in far less time than I would have imagined possible. Thank you, Rochelle!

Before working with Rochelle, many of the V2K franchisees were struggling to close business. They could attract clients, but lacked experience closing. I saw a significant increase in many of the franchisees’ sales after they participated in Rochelle’s Sales Breakthrough System. After Rochelle’s sales coaching, several franchisees quickly made the Monthly Top 10 Sales List and other franchisees increased sales significantly within the first few months following her sales coaching.
Due to the amazing results franchisees achieved from working with Rochelle, V2K has endorsed Rochelle as their national sales business coach. If anyone wants to know the value of Rochelle’s sales coaching program, please have them call or email me. I’ll be happy to talk to them.

Before working with Rochelle, our closing ratio each month was at an all-time low. In just a few sales coaching sessions, the average salesperson’s sales closing ratio increased 58%. We were amazed to see such a significant increase in business in such a short time.
In addition, the sales team has created new goals, is confident making prospecting calls, and is getting more sales by asking for referrals. We all agree the Sales Breakthrough System is the best sales training we have ever had! If anyone wants to know the value of working with Rochelle and learning her sales system, I would be happy to talk to them about it.

I came to Rochelle to learn her entire sales system so that I could
gain more confidence in selling to customers. I worked with Rochelle for 6
months and what followed is amazing. My business is booming! I have
consistently been on the “Top Ten List” and finished this month #1 in sales.
My business has more than doubled since last year.
Hats off to you! Due to the Sales Breakthrough System, these numbers represent a 100% closing ratio. THANK YOU!

When I came to Rochelle, I lacked a step-by-step sales process, direction for my business, and clarity of whom my ideal client was. I also felt I offered too many services, which was confusing to potential clients.
With Rochelle’s coaching, I made the decision to focus in one area, created a clear marketing message, and learned how to close the sale. In 3 months of working with Rochelle, I now have confidence in closing the sale and signed on 3 clients. I now feel on track with a clear focus of my company’s services and message.

Before working with Rochelle, I was disorganized, unfocused, and
losing my passion for my business. Sales coaching with Rochelle gave me a
CLEAR plan to be successful. I now have a specific process in place, and I’m
no longer overwhelmed. From the beginning of the sales call to closing the
sale, I know exactly how to sell. And, the passion is back!
Being an older franchisee, I can honestly say “where was Rochelle?” seven years ago! Due to what I learned in the Sales Breakthrough Boot Camp, I’m close to closing $30,000 in sales! I highly recommend you do this for yourself, your future and your business. If you have any questions about working with Rochelle and her sales system, please feel free to contact me.

After working with Rochelle, I now know exactly how to proceed in
the sales process; what to say, how to say it, and most importantly, when to
say it to close more sales and increase the number of qualified referrals I
receive. In the first 3 months of business coaching, I implemented the
skills she had taught me, and closed a $5,000 sale! I owe that sale entirely
to what I learned from the Sales Breakthrough System—and it more than
covered my investment.
Through working with Rochelle, my confidence in selling has risen significantly, and I am truly excited about the future of my business. I encourage everyone who is considering working with Rochelle to do it! You’ll learn sales strategies that work and can be used throughout your entire career; you’ll gain sales confidence; and you’ll work more effectively and efficiently.
If you are considering working with Rochelle and want more specific information on the value that Rochelle’s sales coaching and Sales Breakthrough System, please call or e-mail me. I would be happy to talk with you.

My business was growing steadily until several life turning events impacted my ability to work on my business. Then, after listening to a free Sales Breakthrough teleclass that Rochelle offered, I had my first breakthrough.
The rejuvenation, support, and focus on results were just what I needed to become more efficient and effective and grow my business. With Rochelle’s coaching and using the Sales Breakthrough System for only two months, my closing ratio was 100% for both of those months.
I’m now in my third month and it’s looking just as promising. If you’re considering working with Rochelle, I highly recommend it!
