Just some of the things that people have been saying about Mina’s workshops:

“Truly inspiring and makes me want more!”

“Great networking and great energy in the room”

“Very valuable. Didn’t know that life could be better!”

“Extremely powerful – Mina is a fabulous coach!”

Are you ready to stop spinning your wheels and accelerate growth? Do you feel like you’re the chief cook & bottle washer?

Are you busier than ever but not getting the traction, results, and the revenue you need?

Are you ready to seize new opportunities, grow the business and create a winning business for today and tomorrow?

Business is not just sales, not just marketing, not just planning and strategy, not just managing employees and not just providing your product or service. It’s all the above. Learn how to create alignment with what you really want from your business with your goals, the right actions that support your goals and more importantly have the internal energy, confidence and positive outlook to make it happen.

The program includes a 30 minute 1:1 coaching session each month. During the course you’ll learn to focus on your strengths and eliminate your weaknesses and become highly effective.

The Business Accelerator Program is a 12 month program that focuses on the following key areas over the course of the program. Each course is approximately a 6 week interactive workshop and delivered in two phases.

Phase I Instruction: 4 hour interactive workshop

Phase II Implementation: 4 weeks of weekly group coaching, and support during the Implementation & Execution that maximizes retention and results.

It’s time to accelerate your business with the BlueRock Business Accelerator program specifically for entrepreneurs, small business owners, sales and business professionals.

A powerful and unique program designed by a professional business coach and entrepreneur to get you the results. Not getting the results you deserve from your hard work creates a vicious cycle that triggers lack of confidence, stress, burn out, lack of energy and overwhelm all which lead to lack of focus and spinning your wheels.  Once you start spinning your wheels it can be difficult to get out of the trap.

You are not alone!  Most businesses fail because they run out of money.  Focusing on the right activities generates results which lead to more sales and revenue.  Learn how to focus on the high pay off activities and increase your results.

If you continue to do what you’re doing you’ll continue to get the same results.  Do something about, take charge and make your business what you dreamed it would be.

It’s time to do something about it!

Attend the BlueRock Business Accelerator program which is a powerful blended learning workshop that combines coaching, training and independent study that provides you with instruction and coaching as you implement and execute what you’ve learned.

It’s this unique combination that increases that provides you with the results you’re looking for in your business.  Whether it’s more time, balance, increased focus or more money you can achieve it when you have a solid foundation and the right tools for today’s business climate.

No question about it, this is the most powerful program that will get you results because it’s the only business program that is a blend of coaching and training that encompasses Personal Development, Setting & Reaching Goals, Sales, and Marketing and most important helps you implement and execute the right actions that get you traction.

• Affordable on any budget.

• Blended learning combination that increases your skill and effectiveness.

• Spaced repetition learning style guarantees that what you learn will stick.

I’m so confident that you will get results that I’m offering a money back guarantee.  When you enroll in the program and attend the program as outlined, if you don’t see an increase in results in your life and/or business.  I’ll refund your money.  Now there is a catch, you do have to implement and execute what you learn in the 12 month business accelerator program and do your part.    This does take work and myself and my coaches will be there to teach you and support you along the way.

Are you ready do something about it?

Are you ready to get the results you really want?

What’s stopping you?

If you’re reading this far you might be curious to why I’m so confident about my Business Accelerator program. I’m confident because I see entrepreneurs, small business owners and independent sales and business professionals getting results.  There is no magic or rocket science involved it really comes down to a unique combination of learning, support and accountability, focus and doing things in a certain way that deliver powerful results.

I’ve attended many of workshops and seminars as you probably have.  You get all pumped up and when you return to the office you throw the material on the desk and went about doing things the way you always have. I get it,  I’ve been there before which is why I created this program.  It use to drive me crazy spending thousands of dollars for a 2 or 3 day workshop only to get back to my office and ask myself, now what? Who can I call to ask a few clarify questions as I implement this program? We have you covered!  When you attend my Business Accelerator workshop you’ll receive 4 hours of instructions for each topics covered followed by 4 weeks of implementation and execution.  With my team of professional coaches we’ll teach you and then support you through weekly coaching and accountability calls.  And that’s just one of the unique methods we use that I believe is the ”magic” which get’s you results.

I could offer a one-day workshop, or 90 day program to get you excited.  But I want more for you than to just pump you up.  I want you to experience sustainable results, more time, more money, more balance in your life and business with more focus.  I want you to stop spinning your wheels and enjoy your life, which is the reason why you got into business.

Don’t delay what you really want from your business.  Call to sign up now. 714-381-3073

    I am very excited about this years’ International Coaching Week. Please join me on February 19th, 2010 at Brandman University to learn more about coaching and what coaches do as a profession. The power of coaching is profound and for those that seek coaching or thought about coaching, this is an event you will want to attend. Step into 2010 with a solid plan!

    This week the ICF Orange County chapter brings coaching awareness to the Orange County community as part of the global International Coaching Week.  You’ve heard of coaching, you’ve thought about hiring a coach, but you’re not sure what it’s about or what it can do for you.  This is a great opportunity to experience coaching from 15 of Orange County’s top coaches with presentations focused on business, life and career.  Seating is limited to 100 so register early and secure your seat.

    Last year’s International Coaching Week (ICW) for our local Orange County chapter of ICF was an amazing event with big-draw names like John Gray and Jim Cathcart.

    As being one of several presenters for the day, I highly encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity. Because this event is hosted by ICF, a nonprofit organization, it is intended to bring awareness and education to those who want to learn more about coaching and what it can offer in your life. Register now for $19.95, and it gets you into this FULL DAY event to experience coaching and make 2010 the year to unlock your potential!

    As a coach, I am honored to be a part of this wonderful program. A collective group of members including myself will be offering our coaching to one lucky nonprofit organization.

    Do you know a non-profit organization who would like coaching support to help achieve their goals this year?  The ICF-OC will be offering an organization up to nine months of coaching and development FOR FREE as part of our “organizational upgrade program”.  We are looking for an organization that is generally based in Orange county so that we can work with all the employees, but other than that we have no specific requirements other than an interest and a desire to take your organization to the next level.  If you or anyone you know is interested, please fill out the “expression of interest form” at http://www.icforangecounty.com/2009/10/giving-back-organizational-upgrade/ and we will contact you in early February to discuss a possible fit.

    Game Plan

    Living Your Dream: If Not Now, Then When?

    By Nancy Colasurdo, Life Coach

    FOXBusiness, http://www.foxbusiness.com/story/personal-finance/living-dream/

    Sometimes it’s the seemingly innocuous invitations that turn out to be zingers.

    Last weekend, I was invited to sit in on a training session for about 15 people at the Grand Hyatt in Manhattan. These people were well into a yearlong program to become professional coaches through a company called Accomplishment Coaching.

    Those taking the program sat in a square-shaped table configuration, while those invited to witness sat around the perimeter. We were welcomed by CEO Christopher McAuliffe and then “ignored” once the training began, so as to let the classroom setting unfold and allow us to be observers.

    What set the tone for the nearly two hours that followed was one student, let’s call her Carolyn, who shared that she was choosing to put aside some potentially debilitating health problems in order to be effective as a coach. Her classmates, one by one, challenged whether she was indeed putting them aside and carefully probed. At one point, McAuliffe asked Carolyn what really living life would mean to her and part of her response was “traveling around the world.” He then drew her out for specifics.

    Carolyn continued to be coached by her peers and the instructors. At times it felt like we were eavesdropping rather than just observing, such was the power of the exchange taking place. As it wound down, McAuliffe asked the coach trainees what “project” Carolyn should take on. She had previously revealed ongoing projects in building her coaching practice and writing books. Two students took a crack at it and whiffed.

    “Traveling around the world,” McAuliffe said.

    But of course. (Did I gasp out loud?)

    As a professional coach, I should not have been surprised and yet sometimes it takes someone else to say it. If a client, or in this case Carolyn, just finished saying that to her “really living life” involves traveling around the world, then setting a goal in that is part of what we do as coaches. We make real to them what they’ve only imagined might be possible.

    Now of course, in a situation outside this classroom, suggesting this goal to a client would likely produce responses like, “In this economy? Yeah, right” or “When will I ever have the time to do that?”

    As a coach, I say, if not now, when?

    Even the most optimistic experts tell us we’re going to be dealing with this grim economy for years. Are we going to start “really living” in four, eight, 10 years? By now I’ve written a few columns talking about using this time to assess your attachments to material goods and to really examine your relationships. Here, I am suggesting a no-holds-barred answer to the question, what does really living life mean to you?

    Last week a former client wrote me for advice because he doesn’t know what he wants his next career path to be. He has done assessments, introspection, networking, you name it, but he is temping at the moment. Here’s what I wrote: “I know this isn’t really an answer, but I feel you have a lot to offer. Maybe life is telling you to go out on a crazy limb right now. What might that look like?” His response included some thoughts of a geographical move.

    Just days later, I was reading the Style section of The New York Times and a bit in the “Vows” column (on the wedding announcements page) caught my eye. The bride, in her 40s, was the type who lived her own life and wasn’t sitting around waiting for Mr. Right. In 2006 she decided to put 20 years of New York living behind her and move to Dublin for a job with a three-year commitment. While there, she booked a weekend getaway to Glasgow, “which is where she crossed paths with a frisky cocker spaniel dragging a buff Scottish policeman behind it.”

    I think you know where the story goes. And for that matter, where this column is going. In keeping with the travel theme, I have a friend in the South of France who’s invited me to visit. Before I could even voice an objection about money or time, he said this, “All you have to pay for is the airline ticket. You have a place to stay. And you’d have to buy food whether you came to France or not.”

    Sometimes really living life is that simple. Give your goals some wings.
