 Greetings! What a
whirlwind! From January 22-25th I was in
Los Angeles participating in Christine Kloser's Freedom
Formula Experience (www.freedomformulaexperience.com and
then I taught my LAST EVER (small) 3-Day Selling with
Intention Intensive (more to come on that below!)
with a phenomenal group of men and women. If it is
possible to Quantum Leap your business in just
two weeks, then I have just done that!
I have completely transformed my
business and am positioned for incredible
growth in 2009... and I can't
wait to take you all with me! 
If
you haven't signed up for our free two part
tele-series, 7 Ways to Quantum Leap Your Business in
2009, then make today the day you
register! I
promise you that these two calls could help you make a
Quantum Leap in your sales this year-when everyone else
is worried about the Doom and Gloom around them.
During these two calls, I will be teaching you the
Mindset Shift you need to make to thrive in this
new economy and the tools you need to take with
you. Don't miss
it!
Over the past few days,
we have had even more people sign up for Sales
Coach Now and only have 23 Charter Memberships
left for $27.00 per month. Again, once we have sold out
of the 100 memberships we will be increasing the price.
However, those of you who have a $27.00 monthly
membership will be grandfathered in FOREVER at that
price! And we are going to be adding some INCREDIBLE
value over the next 12 months! From live
laser coaching to receiving the CD's in the
mail (yes, that is happening in March)-the
updates will be HUGE! You can
join today!
Also, I will be debuting our brand new
Sales Coach Now Quantum Leap Mastermind
program on February 10th. This program is for
serious sales professional and
entrepreneurs who truly want to make a
significant increase in sales this year. There will only
be ONE business represented per category, so if
there is a part of you that immediately said, "YES",
then email me and I will send you the
application! Ursula@potentialquest.com

 Updates
from Ursula!
Can you feel the energy?
Everywhere I look and everyone I speak to is telling me
that something is in the air! And I
believe that 2009 is truly "A Year of
Abundance". Let me
explain! At the end of 2008 I made
some serious decisions about where I wanted to
be at the end of 2009. After putting my
top goals into writing and deciding that I
would work with some incredible coaches and teachers
this year, I also gave my year a "theme"-A Year of
Abundance. I chose that theme because through all
of my studying and training I have learned that
we have the ability to create an abundant life
or a life of lack. It is a choice. And
when I really "got that" at a core level,
everything shifted for me. And
now I am living that Year of
Abundance!  The year
kicked off for me in
Napa with my dear friend Michelle who I
met five years ago at the NLP Institute of
California. We spent the weekend catching up and
also "masterminding" some incredible
ways to expand our businesses this year to help more
people and increase our financial
wealth. Since Michelle is in the wine
industry, we also got to "play" and did
some wine tasting at high end wineries including
a private tour at Cakebread. It
was an awesome way to kick off the year and Tim (my
husband) and I are planning another trip to Napa to
celebrate my birthday (and Michelle's) in April!
I also held my last ever public
("small") 3-Day Selling with Intention Intensive because
we are planning one BIG event later
this year! I hope you will be able to join us for
this business and life changing event! Stay
tuned!
I don't know about
you, but abundance to me is just not about money.
A "Year of Abundance" for me means an abundance in all
areas of my life: spiritual, health, family, friends,
love, peace, freedom and wealth. I hope that you
join me in this "Year of Abundance" because it is for
all of us....
May 2009 be your most
abundant year yet!

Special
Article
3 Ways a Mastermind Group Can
Grow Your Business!
Doesn't it seem like lately
everyone is talking about Mastermind
Groups? A few years ago I knew nothing
about "Masterminding" or what a Mastermind Group even
was. Napoleon Hill, author of the
classic "Think and Grow Rich" created the idea
of the Mastermind Group in the early
1900's. He wrote, "The coordination of
knowledge and effort of two or more people, who work
toward a definite purpose, in the spirit of
harmony." And then he added, "No two minds ever
come together without thereby creating a third,
invisible intangible force, which may be likened to a
third mind." After reading and
studying his material, I realized that I just HAD to
find a Mastermind group that I could join.
And then one showed
up.
I was fortunate enough
to meet Dr. Gordon A. Ray, author of
Escalator to the High Life Zone and fellow
Mastermind Member. Dr. Ray invited me to join
the Mastermind Group that he created a
few years ago. The timing was perfect and
I said YES immediately. There were only
two other members, but with the four of us, we were able
to share ideas and give each
other incredible support to move our businesses
and lives to the next level. And that's exactly
what happened.
There are
many ways to get involved with a Mastermind
Group. Some are free, some are a low investment
and others can be a significant-even six or seven
figure-investment (yes, you read that correctly).
This year I decided that in addition to the free or low
cost Mastermind Groups that I was involved with,
I also wanted to invest in a Mastermind
Group that I knew could help me Quantum
Leap to the next level.
And then one showed
up. I'm not kidding! I was just
accepted into Christine Kloser's Mastermind
Group and will be focusing on making
significant leaps in my sales and business this
year. And you know what the best news is?
Everything that I learn will overflow to all of my
clients. Not only through what I am teaching and
how I am growing, but also how I am thinking, acting and
growing my own business. In other words, I am taking you
all with me! This is our collective Year
of Abundance! It is the reason
I felt the calling to create my own Mastermind
Group for my clients. It is also the
reason I founded www.salescoachnow.com which is
what I consider a low cost option to
participate in a virtual Mastermind Group that is also
designed to help you Quantum Leap this
year!
And if you don't join a Mastermind
group, you can always create your own by getting
a small group of trusted professionals
together to share ideas and support one
another. In my experience, there are three
main ways that a Mastermind Group can help you
grow your business:
~
Accountability
Let me
explain...
Support
Guess what? You can't reach your
goals in isolation. You can't do it alone. I
know, I've tried! I tend to like to work alone and
in the past I forgot the power of having the support of
others to encourage you and to share ideas with.
There is nothing more important than having support in
those moments when you ask yourself, "Why am I even
doing this?". The members in my Mastermind
Groups have truly been the people who have kept me going
and who helped me remember to stay on my path when I had
lost my way.
Accountability
In addition to not being able to (or wanting
to!) do it alone, you need others to help you stay
accountable. One of the main reasons that I knew I
needed to invest heavily (financially) this year is
because I knew that would make me even MORE committed to
reaching my goals this year. What was amazing to
me was that just paying the money made me take a giant
step forward. I quickly let go of several services in my
business that I knew were holding me back from going to
the next level. I am TEN times more
accountable now than I was even a month ago. For
me, it made THAT BIG of a difference!
Quantum Leap
If you
are truly serious about making a Quantum Leap in your
sales this year, then a Mastermind Group is
critical. I also recommend that if you are really
stretching, then investing in a Mastermind Group can
help you feel even more committed. I have found that
when I invest in a Mastermind Group rather than
participating for free, I automatically take it more
seriously and stay more focused. We all know that
when we have money on the line, we tend to be more
committed. And significantly increasing your sales
takes commitment, training and personal growth. I tell
all of my clients that when they get better, so do their
clients.
Action Item:
Decide that you WILL be part of a Mastermind Group
this year. Either search one out that you can
invest in or start your own. Put a date on your
calendar when you will take that next step. I promise
you that it will make an incredible difference in your
business...and in your life!
"All the
breaks you need in life wait within your imagination,
Imagination is the workshop of your mind, capable of
turning mind energy into accomplishment and
wealth." Napoleon Hill

What
Recession?
Recession Does Not Always Equal
Failure
Recession is generally viewed by
people as a time of failure where even the most rich of
person can feel the hit. However, some of the top
businesses of today actually were created in a time of
economic turmoil. Inc.com has compiled a list of big
names that emerged during such a time and continue to
grow today. Author
Recession Success Story....
Nantucket Allserve
The sluggish
economy doesn't deter Tom Scott and Tom First from
setting up a juice bar on Nantucket, Massachusetts. The
company takes in $52,000 in its first year, before the
self-proclaimed Juice Guys switch gears and begin
selling bottled beverages through grocery and
convenience stores. Money is tight -- Scott often sleeps
in his car -- but the company soon builds a killer field
sales force, which ensures its
success.

Success Story!
Meet
Antoinette Morales
Sales Coach Now gives me a variety of tools to grow
my sales! I find that by contributing to the Sales
Forum, I am able to get additional exposure for my
company and I am able to contribute to others who may be
having some difficulty with their business or looking
for a referral. It is also a good resource when it comes
to coaching. If I am having an extremely difficult day I
can go on Sales Coach Now and listen to the many
different audio links (the Principles of Selling with
Intention) to get my mind unstuck and allow business to
flow again.
In the short time I have used
SCN, I also connected with a potential client
and am in the process of helping her non-profit
with a gala scheduled later this year!
This is a person I might not have met if I
hadn't been a member on Sales Coach Now. She found me on
Sales Coach Now after posting my company on Sales
Forum. So in addition to the amazing tools that
are there to keep me moving forward, I have also
received business opportunities!!!!
