Episode #023: Natalie Sisson, Author of The Suitcase Entrepreneur

by

Natalie SissonIt’s hard not to admire Natalie Sisson. After 8 years working her way up the corporate ladder and succeeding in nearly everything she put her hand to, she decided it was time to leave.

Needless to say, many of her friends said she was nuts. Who does that after all? Well, Natalie does. And she hasn’t regretted it once.

Natalie has since developed a knack for doing what she loves from wherever she wants to do it. And now she specializes in helping other people do that as well.

Even if you’re an established entrepreneur, but maybe desire to take more of it online, you’ll find Natalie’s new book quite helpful.

Gary VaynerchukIt’s been a real treat to, in back-to-back weeks, feature two authors I’ve learned more from in the last five years than just about anyone else. Last week it was Chris Brogan. This week on the podcast it is my pleasure to welcome Gary Vaynerchuk into the hot seat.

While Chris is all about sharing ways to help spread your message whether social media is involved or not, Gary’s latest book, Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook: How to Tell Your Story in a Noisy Social World,is all about the social media tools and how to use them well.

I believe you’ll find it to be a great resource on understanding the psychology of various social media platforms and what makes each one unique. In fact, Gary argues understanding that concept and the others he lays out is key if you have any plans of succeeding on these platforms.

The first time I heard the name Pat Flynn (just a few months ago) he came up three times in a single week. There was a friend, a blog and a podcast all referencing this guy. I had to find out who he was and why he was so important.

If there was ever the perfect example of an individual honestly and ethically making his own way on the internet – employment be damned – Pat was it. A more personable, down-to-earth guy you’ll never meet.
