Jim Nelson describes a special event for RV entrepreneurs on Episode 291

  • Resumen

  • This week, I will be interviewing a man who is a big advocate for people who run businesses from their RVs. He will be co-leading a workshop for RV entrepreneurs at the upcoming Pennsylvania RV Show in Hershey in September. I interviewed Jim Nelson for an episode of The Workamper Show in 2021. He is the co-founder of Live Work Dream. Lots of things have been happening in Jim’s life and business since we last talked. For example, he and his partner, Rene, just completed a trip to Alaska, where they had spent the winter outside of Anchorage. Just before leaving for Alaska, the couple downsized from a huge fifth wheel to a much smaller Project M truck camper from Four Wheel Campers. Jim describes what prompted the switch and how it has impacted their RVing experience. While Rene has been writing for RV Life for years, Jim was recently tapped to host the RV Entrepreneur Podcast, which RV Life acquired in 2023. The podcast and website also came with a 17,000-member online community. Jim and Rene will be staffing an RV Life booth at the upcoming Pennsylvania RV Show in Hershey. However, Jim will also be co-leading a seminar at the show exclusively for RV entrepreneurs. He explains what that training involves, and Jim describes a special reception, sponsored by RV Life, planned for RV entrepreneurs at the show. As a serial entrepreneur, Jim is a magnet for new opportunities. His eyes are always open for ways to make money without having to give up the RV lifestyle he and Rene enjoy so much. Anyone who runs a business from their RV, or dreams of doing so someday, would benefit from participating in RV Life’s RV Entrepreneur workshop Sept. 12 in Hershey. It will be a great opportunity to learn from successful business owners and to network with other RV entrepreneurs as well. The RV Life Afterparty takes place at The Englewood in Hershey, which is only a few miles from the Giant Center, where the RV show takes place. The Englewood is a barn-type venue that will feature live music and some delicious food. It will be an ideal atmosphere for business owners to network and bounce ideas off each other. The Hershey Show is where RV manufacturers first introduce their new models to RV buyers a few weeks before they are presented to dealers at a big private event in Elkhart, Ind. During the interview, Jim also talks about one of his all-time favorite Workamping jobs, which involved working at Vicker’s Horse River Ranch near Lake City, Colo. Located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, Jim and Rene spent 11 summers at the ranch. Jim offered some great advice to people contemplating the RV lifestyle. First, try hard to be out of debt before Workamping, then do your homework before accepting any job. He also encourages Workampers to have some sort of alternative income to support their lifestyle. Jim said the best way to enjoy a full-time RV lifestyle is to develop multiple sources of income. He wrote a book about how to do that. Titled, “Income Anywhere!: The Ultimate Guide for How to Full-time RV and Support Your Nomadic Lifestyle,” it is available on Amazon and other bookstores. People can connect with Jim on his website at www.liveworkdream.com and listen to his business advice on the RV Entrepreneur Podcast. He and Renee are also active on Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and several other social media channels. Their Live Work Dream YouTube channel features more than 300 videos about the RV lifestyle and running a business from the road. Be sure to check it all out. Jim and Rene are a wonderful resource for new and experienced Workampers. Today’s episode is sponsored by Workamper News.
