Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor

Oh, the working RVers we have seen this past week! We went to two large flea markets. Vendors were selling everything from handmade crafts to imported doo-dads, baked goods to used tools. They provided services from air conditioner repair to dog grooming. We saw folks washing cars, singing, BBQing meat, and hawking the advantages of their miracle potato peeler. A flea market vendor shared that she hires five helpers to help in her booth. There was a craft show at the RV park, with more vendors.

We patronized a roadside fruit stand, a mobile business. A fellow RVer in the park picks up spending money taking people to Mexico for dental appointments. That same RVer delivers cars for a transport company -- they fly him to pick up the car, he drives it to the drop-off destination, and they fly him back to the RV park. Some folks here in the park are working for the shrimp boats that line the channel behind us. And I could go on and on….

As working RVers, you have so very many options.

Wherever you are in your work and travels, we wish you joy and prosperity,

Coleen

Enrollment fee goes up January 1, so you might at well sign up now and save $10.00. Commission earnings also go up Jan. 1, so you'll earn more on small orders. Bob and I have been selling JR Watkins products since 2005. People love the vanilla, cinnamon, and pepper, the old time remedies, and the natural skin care products - and that makes it easy to sell. The business is extremely flexible. You do as much or as little as you want. No minimum orders. They'll drop-ship the products for you. Work the business wherever your RV travels take you -- USA or Canada. See the product catalog and learn more.

Rehabilitating Campgrounds and Improving the Campground's Income Stream

This is a guest article written by RVer Patti Hyatt.

Rehabilitating campgrounds takes place after there have been management problems. To help you have a better idea of what we do, I will give a few examples of how we help RV parks recover.

One campground we regenerated was a repossession by the bank. The borrowers' son was the manager. We were contacted to see if we would be interested in rehabilitating this campground. The bad had moved in; the good was no longer coming or staying. The income stream diminished to result in the repossession.

We went there as though we were normal campers, with no one knowing why, or who we were. We wanted to look like we were just another camping couple coming to enjoy the park.
