Why this is a GREAT business for first-time business owners...
Low start-up costs
You don’t need a tremendous amount of capital to get started. I started two of my Mini Mailbox Stores with just $60K upfront.
Recurring Monthly Revenue
Mailbox rental and pack/ship stores' main income source is through monthly recurring rental income. And as a recession-resistant model, you can plan on predictable revenue!
Freedom of Scalability
Because this model isn't bound to franchise constraints, you're free to add MORE revenue lines to your store, to make an almost limitless scale.
Low maintenance
Maintaining this business is NOT time-heavy. At first, you'll want to learn the ins and outs yourself, but you can eventually hire an operator and scale yourself to time FREEDOM!
Do You Often Find Yourself With Thoughts Like...
"Running a new business sounds overwhelming. I can barely manage my current workload, let alone the responsibilities of owning a store. It's probably more stress than it's worth."
"I doubt I have what it takes to make a business successful. I don't possess the skills or knowledge required for such a venture. It feels like setting myself up for failure."
"With the economy being so unpredictable, starting a business now seems risky. A new store could be hit hard in an economic downturn."
If you said "YES," you are not alone!
And if you think there has to be something more for you out there, you’re right, and you’re in the right place...but what if I told you:
I found a model where at first, I spent most of my time learning the ins and outs of the business. But after a few months and hiring an operator, I was able to SCALE MYSELF OUT of the business, now I only show up for 2 hours out of the month.
Your current overwhelm is actually a sign of your capability. You're already managing complex tasks, which is a core skill in business. This experience has honed your ability to prioritize and focus on what's important, making you exceptionally qualified to run a successful store. Your resilience in the face of challenges is a trait that will set you apart in the business world.
I learned from someone who made 7 figures in this model, and duplicated and honed his process over and over until I found repeatable process to scale this business to 6 figures per year. If you're open to seeking advice, learning from others, and continuously improving, this will work for you. This mindset is vital for success in a new business, where adapting to new trends and customer needs is key. Your willingness to learn gives you a competitive edge.
Because of it's necessary nature, this model has proven pandemic and recession proof, providing consistent and predictable revenue income for years. This model offers essential services that remain in demand, even in a downturn. Your foresight in choosing a business that withstands economic fluctuations demonstrates your strategic acumen, positioning you for long-term success.

Why An Independent Store?
I initially considered buying a UPS franchise store, but was turned off by the 1.) high start up costs, 2.) monthly franchise fees, 3.) monthly marketing fees, 4.) being beholden to their layout and limitations on amount of mailboxes you can have in the store and a host of other rules and regulations. Plus, you can't help any customers who may need FedEx. It may work for some people, but I decided it wasn't for me.
In my opinion, having an independent store allows you the most flexibility. You can offer your customers all the various carriers: US Postal Service, UPS, FedEx and DHL or another, additional international shipper. And you can configure the store however you'd like, running whichever promotions you want. Our customers love the convenience of being able to drop off their Amazon packages (usually UPS labels) while also being able to ship out FedEx and also being able to buy stamps. We can service all of it.

Hi!
I'm Lisa Song Sutton
I'm an entrepreneur, real estate investor, and former Miss Nevada. I started my own mailbox rental, pack and ship store in 2018, and we’ve generated over a half million dollars with a fraction of the knowledge and resources connected to what I am going to share with you.
If you’ve ever wanted to make mailbox money, but you don’t know where to start, think the franchise route is overbearing and outdates, and have no experience running this type of store, then this could be the most important course you ever take.
But first…
I started my own independent store because I was attracted to the business model. Before I started my own stores, I was a mailbox customer of a local UPS franchise store. I had that mailbox for several years and they autocharged my credit card every year. I would forget about it, but didn't have the time, effort, or energy to cancel it since I would use the address sometimes to avoid using my home address for stuff. I was intrigued by the business model.
Mailboxes are like mini storage units. A low maintenance, low overhead item that has steady, recurring monthly revenue.
The shipping is ancillary and seasonal.
I knew that if I could fill up enough mailboxes, I could use that steady recurring revenue to cover my expenses: rent and payroll.
Once I discovered this business model, I knew I had to learn more.
The only problem was that I didn’t know anything about running a store like this.
So, I went up the street from my house to the independent store that I frequented as a customer. I was friends with the owner, Andrew. I approached him and asked him if wanted to expand. He said no. So, I told him that I wanted to open up a store like his, but far enough away that it wouldn’t be competition.
I told him that I would pay him $10,000 if he let me follow him around for 2 weeks, work in his store and capture his processes. I would build him a nice handbook if he wanted and he would have free (actually, paying him!) help. He agreed and I got right to work!
I trained in his store every day for 2 weeks. People thought I was a new hire.
I captured all of the processes he's used to generate 7 figures and copied everything in his store. The computer system, the counter heights, everything.
Then I modified it and improved it for use in my own store.
Fast forward years later, my friend Codie Sanchez called me and said she was starting a Youtube channel and asked if she could come to film some of my businesses.
I said, "Sure let’s do it!" And we filmed at my real estate brokerage and also at my shipping stores.
Before I knew it, I had people reaching out to me from all around the country, asking how they could open up their own independent stores.
Initially, I was answering questions one-off, but then realized the best way for me to help a lot of people at once was to build an e-course.
This course is to help you start your own business!
If you are serious about starting your own mailbox rental, pack and ship store, then my e-course is the perfect way to get started!
What Current Students Are Already Saying!
Ron Kots
"Lisa was transparent with her information and showed us exactly how her stores operate, services provide and examples of how to set prices. She provided insight on why it might be better to build a new store vs. buying an existing one.
She reviewed the equipment she uses and where to buy the supplies the actual startup costs, how to market your store, how to grow and expand, including all the templates and SOPs that she uses in her stores."
Kyrylo Malov
"I want to express my appreciation for the valuable content and insights provided in your course. The video quality was excellent, and the materials were very well-structured. 👍 Thank you for putting together such a comprehensive resource."
Cheng Peria
"My husband and I are done with the course. You have shared so much great information and tips on a personal (being the owner) as well as professional side of the business!"
Asma Nissa
"I went through the course. It is by far the best online course that I have come across. I am working to get started on it soon. This is going to be my first venture so I am really excited."
Ashton Tracey
"I just finished your course, and I love what you’re doing! This has been very inspiring; I’m already trying to figure out areas I could do this at!"
Tami Rhoades
"This course took the fear and anxiety out of starting my business. I feel like I have exactly what I need to be confident and successful with opening a store and I'm ready to sign a lease as soon as I find a location!"
Brenna Hankla (student)
"My husband and I are opening a mailbox store in Texas! We signed the lease and we are building out the space in the next few weeks. Wanted to say thank you for the idea because we would never have thought to do this if we hadn’t seen your TikTok!"
Kelsey Weeks
"I completed the course, and it was great!! Lots of amazing insights, very straightforward and easy to follow, plus the documents you included are beyond helpful!"
Brandon C.
"The course has been very informational and I've got a lot of value out of it and just wanted to thank you!"
Glenn Celis
"I'm thrilled to share that I've closed on a shipping store in Torrance, CA. Thanks to your business model and your video with Codie Sanchez, I found the perfect store after a 5-month search. It was established in 1994, with consistent financials and a 40% profit margin, all for just 119k. The current owner misses out on notarial services, virtual mail, DHL, and Amazon, with only 60% mailbox occupancy, leaving room for growth. Your MMM course has been invaluable, teaching me what to do and what to avoid as a business owner. The location at the Rolling Hills Plaza in Torrance is fantastic. Thanks for everything!"
Take A Look At Jen's Store!
Just outside of Nashville Tenessee, our course student Jen, has already opened, stocked, and gotten customers at her store! Look, it even comes with a greeter! Here's what she had to say:
"We've done a full military theme with Clarksville Mail Call - a homage to my family's military history. In addition to pack and ship services, our store has an emphasis on providing business services that support fellow small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Your class definitely helped us get started quicker and with more confidence! Tips like avoiding the large format printer lease were especially helpful. And small things such as counter height saved us from having to go to a UPS store to measure their counter heights discretely."
