Are you toying with the idea of becoming a full-time RVer? Do you feel the road calling you? Are you sick of going to the office day after day? Well, it may be time to take the leap and hit the road while you work from your RV. It is becoming more popular for people to work remotely. When you don’t have to go into an office it allows you to work from anywhere, like the Grand Canyon one week and the beaches of California the next. If you have the option of working from anywhere and are ready to do it, here are 5 tips to make it easier.
1. Go paperless for everything possible
There are very few things that you need to have printed copies of nowadays. Not needing to bring a printer along with you will help you save space in your RV.This will also help you spend less on supplies. There are apps that will allow you to turn online documents into fillable forms. There are also many options to store information without needing printed documents and files. Evernote is a popular choice. You can create notes in the program or even snap pictures of a note you wrote by hand and save it in a folder within Evernote. You can easily search to find what you are looking for as well. Look around to choose the option that works the best for you.
2. Establish a work schedule or routine
One of the best things about being an entrepreneur or remote worker is that you typically have the ability to create your own schedule. However, that can also be the worst thing about the job. There is no one keeping you accountable for doing your job and no one that is telling you to go home for the day (since you already are home). If you set an established work schedule it will help you get the work done that you need to while still making sure you have time to enjoy the freedom of being a full-time RVer.
3. Have a dedicated space
It may seem impossible when you are living and working in an RV to have a space dedicated just to your work, but it is possible. It starts by finding the right RV for sale in California. One great option is to purchase an RV that has a dedicated bunkspace that you don’t need to use. Then, you can remove the bunks and create your own workplace. Remember, that your RV workspace is not going to be the same as having a large corner office, but when you finish work for the day you can step outside into wherever you want to be.
4. Hire a mail service
If you work for or run a business where you will be receiving mail you need to hire a mail service. Instead of finding one that will forward your mail to where you are you want to find one that will open your mail for you. Once they do this they can scan the items, turning them into digital files and providing you access to them from anywhere. This process is fast and easy and lets you rest assured that a lag time in mailing will not be an issue.
5. Remember why you are doing it
Let’s be honest, there are some things that might not be as easy about working from your RV as it would be if you were working from an office space. But, that’s when you need to remember why you are doing it. There is an entire world out there to see and explore, and that’s impossible to do when you are sitting in your office building. Putting up with the inconveniences that will pop up from time to time is well worth it when you have the freedom to control where you are and where you are headed.
