2. The following is a
detailed vision for what
my company, The Suitcase
Entrepreneur, will look,
feel like, and act like by
December 31, 2015.
3. Sharing it with you helps it
become a reality, especially as
you are a part of it too, just by
reading it.
This painted picture also
depicts the life I will be
leading and, in many respects,
wish for you as well.
6. This is why I do what I do.
I inspire people to create
freedom in business and
adventure in life
so that they love what they do
and live with purpose
7. I WORK WITH THOSE
PEOPLE WHO KNOW
THERE'S A BETTER LIFE
OUT THERE FOR THEM,
where they dictate their own terms for
work, love, and life.
8. I work with real go-getters
who are prepared to go
against the trends, to
challenge the status quo
9. and rebel against
what everyone else
stands for in order to
achieve their ideal
lifestyle.
10. How I do this is by showing them
exactly how to use
online tools,
technology,
social media, and
world-sourcing
11. to streamline their business and
save time and money,
so they can truly
live life on
their own terms.
12. I SPEAK AT EVENTS
AROUND THE WORLD
like TEDx to spread this message,
and show people just what's possible
in this new way of working and why
they can make their dreams a reality.
13. As a strategic business
coach I work with the
best red-carpet clients
who value my 'why' and appreciate
my straight up speak, tough love
approach and real world business
smarts and sass.
14. I TEACH MY MOTIVATED
CUSTOMERS THE REAL
WORLD SKILLS THEY NEED
to set up their own profitable business and a
location independent lifestyle, through my
core flagship program BYOB club, and my
digital products that complement this.
15. I give away a veritable wealth of
FREE STRATEGIES,
ADVICE AND STEP-BY-
STEP LEARNING
through my blog, podcast, videos and webinars,
as well as my free guides and books.
16. I FEEL HONOURED WHEN
my clients and customers tell how
my work, and my best seller book
'The Suitcase Entrepreneur,' helped
them to achieve their dreams.
17. They show me the
results of what they
have launched,
completed, achieved
or done in business,
travel, and life on a
weekly basis.
18. More and more people are telling
their friends about me
because of the
work that I do
and the results
that I provide.
19. People want to work with me
because they know that I get it.
I make it fun, real, and
completely doable.
20. I AM HIGHLY
PERCEPTIVE, INTUITIVE
AND AWARE OF MY KEY
STRENGTHS
I play to these daily to focus on
providing my best self in all my
interactions.
21. It shows as my business
continues to grow daily, and
the Suitcase Entrepreneur
becomes the 'go-to' brand
synonymous with creating
freedom in business and
adventure in life.
22. I MAKE SURE TO
WALK THE TALK
and take regular digital
sabbaticals, play sports I
love, like Ultimate Frisbee,
and spend quality time in
the presence of movers
and shakers.
24. I feel absolutely on purpose
AS I AM TRULY LIVING MY DREAM.
There is no better feeling than sharing
the gift of freedom with yet another
person who 'gets it' and realises that
they can create their ideal lifestyle
on their own terms.
25. I TURNED PRO AND HAVE
NEVER LOOKED BACK.
I have achieved a level of
focus in my life and business
that others can only
dream of.
26. As a result, I am fully
present each and every
day, and I see beauty
in the world and a
universe of opportunity
ahead of me.
27. PEOPLE TELL ME THAT I LOOK
YOUNG, VIBRANT, AND ALIVE.
They see that I am in the best shape of my life both
physically and mentally. They want to learn my
secret, and I tell them the secret is to love what you
do and only do what you love.
28. Everyday I start with my power hour designed
TO FOCUS ON BEING IN
THE ABSOLUTE BEST
FRAME OF MIND
to approach the day with ..
29. An abundance of energy,
gratitude, and desire.
My body is my temple of strength,
my mind is my wiset ally, and my
mindset proves anything is possible.
30. I STAY TRUE TO THE
SYSTEMS THAT I HAVE
CREATED IN MY BUSINESS
t
My core work and main priorities are
completed first thing, so that I can
afford myself the time to do what I
wish during the day.
31. MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY
ENJOY THE QUALITY TIME
WE SPEND TOGETHER AND
MY LOVE FOR LIFE IS
INFECTIOUS
32. My team appreciates my values of freedom and
adventure and how I apply it to all we do.
They are continually growing into
their own power as a result.
33. Every area of my life benefits
from the ruthless focus and
discipline I’ve applied to
achieve this lifestyle
I feel like the luckiest person on earth and in
exactly the right place.
35. My Suitcase Entrepreneur Executive Club is my
flagship offering, regularly cited as:
'the online training program' for
entrepreneurs who want to build a
profitable online business and life
they love.
36. It wins annual awards in excellence and new
members join daily to achieve real results that
change their lives.
Affiliates love to promote it, and this has led
to live events and workshops to take the
training truly global.
37. My coaching is strictly
limited to working with just
a handful of people each
month, who I love working
with, and love working
with me.
38. We make tangible progress every session
and both feel energized by
our work together.
Clients regularly sing my praises and
are proud when I share their excellent
results as case studies on my blog for
others to learn from.
39. My digital guides are selling like
hotcakes. More than that they are
making a real difference in
people’s lives.
They make the complex seem easy,
And the impossible more
than possible.
40. My webinars are always
a hit with hundreds
registering to hear the
valuable information and
knowledge I provide.
41. They soak up the knowledge and lessons
I share freely and generously. This leads
people to want to be a part of my
community and club, which leads to
further growth of my business…
and ultimately theirs, as I'm able to
invest more into them.
43. I LOVE TO LEAD FROM A POSITION
OF STUDENT FIRST, teacher second.
I work with clients who share this attitude,
and together we create magic. We match
each others’ commitment to putting in the
effort where it counts most and
applying strategic focus.
44. When it comes to partnerships, I only align
myself with companies that represent what
the Suitcase Entrepreneur brand stands for
and are willing to create lasting and fruitful
relationships, which benefits both parties.
46. The Suitcase Entrepreneur brand
REPRESENTS THE
FIGHT FOR
FREEDOM
in a traditional world,
uniqueness and success
on your own terms.
47. PEOPLE RELATE to the fact that fun and
profit can go hand in hand, and that if you work
hard, you play hard too.
People want to work with that 'crazy, cool Natalie
Sisson' and become their own version of the
Suitcase Entrepreneur.
49. Companies contact me weekly to see how we
can work together to showcase their latest
tool, product, or service.
We only work with the best, that help those I
serve save time and money, become more
efficient, productive and happier, and
ultimately more successful.
50. As a result, we attract
TOP SPONSORSHIP RATES
that compensate the time, effort, and
thoroughness I put in to provide the most
reliable reviews and opinions for my
community.
52. 'lead by example and
do as you say.’
This is my leadership style, that is
proven again and again in the results
I give my clients, and companies that
I work with.
53. They love how I show them the best way to
achieve what they want in business and
life, and that I practice it in my own life too.
They happily provide raving testimonials
about how much I've increased their
personal and business wealth - be it
mindset, knowledge, money, time or
freedom.
55. I’m known for SAYING EXACTLY WHAT I THINK.
Being a straight-talking Kiwi, I tell people to get real
when they most need to hear it. I also know when
to encourage, motivate, and inspire to get the most
out of people.
56. I AM DOWN TO EARTH
and specialize in making complex speak
plain and simple. This is what people love
about me and my offerings.
And I am cheeky too because life
is too short to be
serious.
58. WE PROVIDE THE BEST
POSSIBLE OFFERINGS
and continually update them to make
sure they stay relevant and provide
real results to those who have
invested in them. As a result, we
get close to zero refund requests
or complaints.

anyone's concerns and to give them the
best possible answer and outcome so they
remain happy, even delighted, and refer us
to their friends for years to come.

for using the right tools and
technology to run your business
from anywhere, our company's
systems are second to none and
are continually being refined and
optimized to make us incredibly

how to create a lucrative
sales funnel, we walk the
talk and have ours set up to
work to the best effect.
