Get Ready for Professional Jetsetter Academy
Professional Jetsetter Academy is a 3 month online travel career coaching program for women in senior management who are ready to reinvent their marketing and sales careers to include travel (without losing their corporate clout or seniority).
You’re smart, successful and strong-willed.
You’ve done it all the 'right way.' Checked all the boxes.
You’re the type who’s always thinking, always doing and always moving on up.
So honestly, it’s not a shock that today you’ve ‘got it all’ – the great benefits. The generous salary. The gorgeous apartment.
You’re great at what you do, and as a result, you’ve scaled the corporate ladder.
But sometimes you wonder, “What’s it all for?”
Now that you’re at the top, it feels like you’ve hit a plateau. You’re coasting, not challenged.
Every day rolls on like this:
Commute to work. Go to the meeting. Grab Starbucks. Assign the tasks to the team. Rinse. Repeat. YAWN.
You're a top performer (especially when it's something you're excited about). But it’s hard NOT to think, “Is this it?” or “Wow, I really can’t do this until I retire.” You love your life for the most part but what you hate is the ROUTINE of your job.
The corner office you used to yearn for now feels like a literal ball and chain.
And the only time you get a little reprieve? A moment to yourself, to breathe? To explore? To try new things? To let your hair down?
Is when you go on vacation.
That’s when you feel the most alive. When you feel most like YOU.
On vacation, there’s no one to impress (no one who knows you anyway). You get to meet exciting new people, soak up the books you’ve always wanted to read, try a delicious new dish you’ve never even heard of before (and probably can’t pronounce).
You get to explore. You get to admire. You get to EXPERIENCE.
THE REST OF THE TIME? YOU:
- Secretly fantasize about taking a month off (and maybe not coming back.)
- Plot your next real – or imagined – trip in your mind (and we’re NOT talking your annual conference in Chicago.)
- Get a little jealous when you check Instagram and see other women living global lifestyles, snapping pics in front of the Eiffel Tower or the dazzling blue ocean and whitewashed houses of Santorini.
- Literally count the days every year until your two-week vacation to somewhere new (your passport is filling up but a lot slower than you’d like.)
- Live for long weekend road trips to see your sorority sisters.
- Generally feel like you can’t travel because you're just so overworked and overwhelmed, you can't take any time off work.
So for now? You’ve decided to just work harder and wait to travel until you retire. Or the kids are grown. Or your partner finally gets more freedom in their schedule.
But you know something is missing. And you know that honestly, something needs to change.
You’re tired of working your butt off to save up for just a few trips a year.
You’re tired of only ‘feeling like yourself’ for 7-10 days max – like while you're strolling cobblestone streets in Montmartre, or feeling the strong Caribbean sun on your skin.
And you’re really tired of the fact that you don’t know what to do about it.
A WAY THAT ALLOWS YOU TO:
- Get paid what you’re worth AND wander the world.
- Have more freedom and flexibility in your schedule.
- Treat life like a permanent vacation.
without:
- Giving up a stable salary.
- Learning a new skill or throwing away your ‘corporate clout’.
- Moving overseas and leaving all the people you love behind.
You don’t have to lead a boring, uneventful, mediocre life.
And you don’t have to give up everything you know and love to travel.
There’s a better way to see the world.
There are 5 objectives of my Professional Jetsetter Academy program:
Determine what kind of job that includes travel would be the best match for your values and what you would actually enjoy doing at this point in your life. This includes identifying your unique combination of skills, strengths, interests and knowledge (I call this your unique pattern of authority).
Figure out your transferable skill sets and expertise so you successfully position yourself as an ideal candidate. I give initial ideas for types of jobs that would fit you based on my 20 years of experience interviewing, hiring and firing working in the travel industry. Then I show you how to validate that your skills and expertise are in demand by companies using research and informational interviews.
Upgrade your cover letter and resume that markets you so perfectly it serves as an ‘interview ticket’.
Target and approach companies in order to get job interviews scheduled even if they’re not explicitly hiring and you don’t know anyone there.
Actually land a job by following my proven process for getting interviews, excelling in them and getting job offers - all without searching for jobs online (the average salary increase in this program is 30-50%). You’ll know how to control the interview conversation - from developing a strong report to learning how to craft the perfect response to any question that’s thrown at you - with word-for-word conversational templates to guide you.
(The last two points together is key to getting a steady stream of job offers.)
So you can become a permanent professional jetsetter.
You’ll sashay away with at least one career path idea that requires travel and is perfect for you based on your skillset. You’ll be ready to go out and interview with confidence. And as a result? You’ll receive at least one formal senior marketing and sales job offer that includes travel in the job responsibilities.
Qualification Criteria of Each Professional Jetsetter Academy Member
There’s a qualification process for each member. I’ll be personally delivering the coaching experience and I can only work with a select group of qualified women who want to achieve the objectives above. I need to make sure you’re ready now and (because of my guarantee below) you’re committed and ready to show up, do the work, and focus on the objectives of the program.
Because of this, it’s imperative that every participant is truly ready for this level of growth – to transform their career into one that supports their goals and dreams – and has the attitude and drive to make the most of their time in the Professional Jetsetter Academy to get there!
This program is for the top performing women in marketing and sales from around the world. It’s very exciting, it produces unprecedented results for you however, it’s not for everyone.
This is for you if:
- You want to travel without having to become an entrepreneur, freelancer, expat or nomad (or live out of a backpack or suitcase – AS IF all your clothes could fit in one).
- You love the security of a stable, full-time corporate job (and the entrepreneurial ‘laptop lifestyle’ sounds more like a nightmare than a dream come true).
- You don’t want to move abroad for good because you LOVE the security of ‘home base’ (with your nice car and favorite grocery store, to boot).
- You need help figuring out what a full-time corporate marketing and sales job with travel looks like, what you would qualify for, and how to find, interview and get one of those jobs.
THIS IS NOT RIGHT FOR YOU IF:
- You’re looking for a program to magically solve your problems or get you out there traveling without having to do anything in return.
- You’re not ready to do the work (I expect you to take action throughout the program because I know that if you do the work, you’ll achieve results in your career and your life.)
- You just want to get a new job to pay the bills and don't want to do the introspective work to find out who you really are so that you can truly reinvent your career and find that job that'll be a fulfilling fit.
- You want to get paid a lot of money while you jet set around the world, without having to actually add value to a particular company or organization.
- You’re into cookie cutter blueprints.
- You expect results overnight (Sometimes finding our way into new career paths can take time, but if you follow the process I teach you’ll be well on your way!)
Don’t waste another day at a job that doesn’t allow you to travel.
If you’re ready to trade in guesswork for a proven framework, you’re in the right place.
Hi, I’m Kimberly Ramsawak, Founder and CEO of Professional Jetsetter and creator of the Professional Jetsetter Academy.
I know right now you might be thinking:
“But I don’t wanna switch careers. There’s no way I could do MY job and travel.”
“Won’t I have to leave my kids/husband/partner behind all the time?”
“Is this even really possible?”
Trust me, not long ago I felt just like you. I thought I had to compartmentalize my love for travel and my love for getting ahead in my career.
I thought ‘a career in travel’ meant making $18/hour as tour guide or signing up to be a flight attendant and ‘going places’ without ever really seeing them. (No thanks.)
It wasn’t until I applied for an International Business graduate program – and was denied – that I realized there’s actually a whole range of travel careers out there in the marketing and sales space that would allow me to make a stable salary and see the world.
I’ve always loved travel. I’ve always loved how it made me feel ALIVE, made my heart beat a little faster, and made my life feel just a little more meaningful.
So after dabbling in several jobs that didn’t actually require travel, I finally created the travel career of my dreams! My experience has included print and digital marketing for travel and tourism agencies, tourism marketing for America’s largest department store retailer, sales, management and operations for cultural attractions/museums and tour operators and strategic planning and consulting for domestic and international destination marketing organizations. And for over twenty years, I’ve been traveling all over the world professionally.
Enjoying my fair share of free skincare products while flying business class.
Doing deals.
Attending trade shows.
Dining at 5-star restaurants and staying at top-tier hotels.
...And doing it all on the company’s dime, which was a nice perk. ;)
The job satisfied my love for travel AND my love for nice things. My love for adventure AND my love for stability.
And did I mention I also got to bring along my hubby, sister and other guests? (I know women who bring along their children!)
So yes, there IS a way to see the world and have stability, too. It’s just that not a lot of people talk about it, and even less teach others how to get it.
Until now.
You don’t have to choose a marketing and sales job that shackles you to your desk and forces you to give up travel. And you don’t have to live the life of a backpacker and stuff all your belongings into a suitcase.
There IS a middle ground. And I know if you’re anything like me, you like your life. You like nice things. And you like having a HOME base.
...You just don’t want to be there ALL the time.
That’s where being a Professional Jetsetter comes in.
When you join the Professional Jetsetter Academy, you’ll learn how to find the perfect travel career for you. Which means a job that allows you to:
- Use the marketing and sales skills you already have.
- Travel FOR work.
- Get paid well for it (cha-ching!).
This program isn’t about asking you to make a radical career change overnight.
It’s about taking the first steps necessary for finding a career that works for you, what you’re good at and what you ultimately want from life. In fact, it’ll take us THREE FULL MONTHS of working together before I’ll nudge you to get out there and start interviewing for your travel dream job. So don't feel overwhelmed.
For the first half of the program, we’ll work on finding a career that’s SO perfectly suited for YOU that both you (and the company) CAN’T say no. And then, we’ll work on the essential skills you need to get mentally and emotionally prepared to head into your interviews with confidence.
So don’t worry if you’re feeling a bit like WHOA, this is huge.
Because we’re going to break it down, make it simple and I’m going to hold your hand every step of the way as you transition from dreaming to doing. (Or from stagnant to skyrocketing!)
So, if you’re serious about a career change and you’re ready to make that good vacation-feeling last all year long, I seriously encourage you to come join us.
I’ll save you a seat in the cabana!

A study abroad company? PR for hospitality?), validate your career idea and make sure it’s the right one for you, schedule, prep and show up armed and ready for informational interviews, create a resume that gets you to the top of the pile and nail your dream interview all without always searching and applying for jobs online or relying solely on your resume.

We will discuss strategy, overcome challenges, peer mastermind, and receive individualized support as we work to take your career to the next level. You'll receive all the support you need to know what to do, how to do it, and you also have unlimited email access to ask me questions or get feedback on anything.

This is specifically designed to be a 3 month container, that includes eight video modules, all contained in your own personal and private membership site for you to access anytime!
MONEY BACK GUARANTEE
This program is not cheap. It's not designed to be. The women we have already coached have found and landed their dream marketing and sales job where they’re doing work they actually enjoy, that makes a valuable impact where they get to travel around the world as part of their job responsibilities; so they know my methods work.
However, (at this stage) you don’t know that they’re going to work for you. To give you some comfort, I’m prepared to guarantee your results.
I know that the Professional Jetsetter Academy system works and I stand behind the program’s promise. My mission is to help you incorporate travel into your marketing and sales career via a new role without losing your corporate clout or seniority.
If, atter you have implemented and completed the entire program curriculum and attended all coaching calls (as guided by me), you do not receive at least one job offer within the three to six months after the program commences, then I will work with you for free until you do.
Or if you don’t feel we’ve delivered on our program promise, we’ll happily refund 100% of your money. We’ll ask for your completed program work across all modules (to make sure you gave it a go) and ask what didn’t work for you (so we can learn and improve). If you do the work and don’t get the value, then I don’t deserve your money. Just submit your completed curriculum work, and we’ll happily refund you.
Simple as that. You implement everything you commit to with my guidance and you get a FULL guaranteed return on your investment or receive your money back. 100% Risk Free.
👍🏽 Sound good?

So, Are You Ready To Get Paid To Travel in your marketing and saleS career?
-
When does the cohort begin?
The Professional Jetsetter Academy winter cohort is a 3 month program that will kick off on Monday, November 13, 2023 and end on Monday, February 5, 2024.
-
Will I have access to the curriculum after the cohort ends?
You'll have lifetime access to the Professional Jetsetter Academy core curriculum. However, once the cohort ends, access to all live coaching group and one-on-one calls, email support and Private Facebook Group will be removed. The reason being: this is an accelerated program. We want everyone in it to be fully doing the work while we are spending the 3 months together. It's not a digital course that's meant to to be taken at the client's own pace. (And BTW, it’ll take just about 3-5 hours per week to go through the program material. The more time you put in, the faster you’ll see results.)
-
What if I’m not ready now? Will you be offering Professional Jetsetter Academy again?
I only accept a limited number of women into the program per cohort period so that my team and I can provide the highest level of client support and service. However, if you’re feeling the tug to do this program, that probably means it’s the right time for you.
There’s never a time in life when you’re ever truly “ready” to do anything. You’ll always be busy and always doubt your “readiness.” If you’ve said to yourself, “I’d love to reinvent my marketing and sales career where I get paid to travel,” then this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. The sooner you start learning the strategies I cover in the program, the sooner you can start to travel and do work that you love. -
Will I get one-on-one time with you?
Yes! There are weekly group calls during the 3 months of the Professional Jetsetter Academy where you can receive laser coaching from me personally, plus 3 private one-on-one calls. And you also have unlimited email access during the 3 months to ask me questions and get feedback on anything.
And don’t forget: The Professional Jetsetter Academy is truly unique in that you not only have the opportunity to get one of a kind individual attention, you’ll also get extra accountability and sisterhood from the support of other like-minded, travel obsessed women inside our private Facebook group. My goal is that you’ll feel wildly supported every step of the way. -
Couldn’t I just Google this?
Nowadays, anyone can Google anything. But when it comes to the content inside Professional Jetsetter Academy, I know for a fact this is something not a lot of people are talking about, and even less people are teaching in the career development space. And this isn’t just regurgitated information. You’re getting an insider’s look at unique career opportunities from someone who has already been there, lived it and has the connections and know-how to help you get a serious leg up.
-
How is this program different than other programs?
I don’t know of any other online career program that provides such a high-level of coaching and travel career-specific support. During the Academy, I’ll personally guide you, make sure you are on the right track, listen to what you truly want and support you with the exact next steps, rather than settling for another pre-packaged job solution.
But please note, while I know you can walk away from this program with a travel dream job (or well on your way to one), it’s not so much about picking the perfect job right away or figuring everything out overnight. It’s really about finding the one career idea that’s right for you, so you find and land your travel dream job with ease AND create long-term career success. All you have to do is show up and take consistent, focused action, and I promise you’ll get there. -
Why should I choose you as my coach?
Great question! I’m uniquely qualified to teach this stuff because I built my own highly successful travel career – from scratch. I started with zero contacts and zero experience. Today, I have over 20 years of corporate experience in sales and marketing, within the travel, tourism and hospitality industry. I’ve restructured entire corporate tourism departments and managed human resources, interviewing and hiring over 100 professionals for various tourism and hospitality positions both here in the U.S. and internationally. (And, in case you’re curious, I also hold a Bachelor’s Degree in International Marketing and a Master’s Degree in Tourism and Hospitality Management.) I like to think of what I provide as a blend of life and career coaching. At the end of the day, what I’m really doing is challenging you to think differently, to behave differently, and to become the professional jetsetter I know you’re meant to be!
-
Do I get access to the entire Professional Jetsetter Academy program all at once?
No. The curriculum is carefully designed so that you complete each weekly module and the corresponding action plans, in order. This is a proven program and it’s vital that you follow the system. If you’re the type of person who always wants to “jump ahead,” and get to the “good stuff” because you “know all this already,” this may not be the right program for you. Everything has been designed to maximize your results and long-term success. And the best part? Once you complete the full Professional Jetsetter Academy program, you get lifetime access and can re-visit the modules in any order you like.
