From Avoiding Conversations to Mastering Them

Two paperback books titled "How to Make Connections in Less Than 60 Seconds" by Kelly James, featuring an image of four hands clasped together in a handshake on the cover, placed on a red surface.

I didn’t write this book because I love small talk — I wrote it because I used to hate it.

As an introverted entrepreneur, I knew I had to make connections to grow, sell, and lead — but it drained me. So I built a system I could actually use. No scripts. No pretending. Just real strategies that work in under 60 seconds.

Now I teach business owners, sales professionals, and everyday people how to connect faster, deeper, and more naturally — even when they’re tired or socially reluctant.

This book is the shortcut I wish I had.
If you've ever left an event feeling like you missed your moment, this challenge is for you.
