The RV Entrepreneur

Today we have the pleasure of talking with Jared and Sammi Creach! Jared and Sammi are full time RVers who launched into full time travel after building a life that would allow them to work from home. They travel with two of their kids, the third is currently serving in the US military, and have two very different businesses that they successfully run from the road. Sammi is a former RN, MSN, MBA left it all for a network marketing career that she’s been running for almost a decade now. Jared enjoys working with his hands so after they hit the road they took a pause for him to become a certified RV technician and he now runs a mobile RV tech business from wherever the family is traveling and adventuring.  **2022 RV Entrepreneur Roundtable - Sept 7-11 in Montrose Colorado: therventrepreneur.com/summit ** ~~~~~ Connect with Jared & Sammi:

The 2022 RV Entrepreneur Summit is now the RV Entrepreneur Roundtable! The RV Life team and I want it to be an AWESOME experience - however with the state of the world, the compressed timeframe due to the major changes within the RVE brand this past year, and several other factors - our ticket sales were below what we needed them to be for the event to launch as planned. HOWEVER, as entrepreneurs we’re no strangers to adapting and overcoming so here is what our new roundtable will look like…

If the RVE Summit was a formal wedding, then the roundtable will be a dedicated business trip to the campground with other industry leaders - much more laid back and intimate. We’ll still have our speakers presenting on their areas of expertise, however it will be more of a conference room presentation feel than a main stage auditorium - no stage, no lights, etc.  In addition we’ve also added six different roundtable discussions where we’ll collectively discuss topics such as:  *Video creation and YouTube *Paid communities and courses
 *Blogs, books, and magazines *Audio & podcasting *Brand merchandise and physical products *General business and entrepreneurial best practices As far as evening activities we’ll have four nights of camaraderie and celebration including a corn hole tournament, a meetup at the Ouray Hot Springs*, multiple campfires, and a fantastic live performance by The Border Hookups!

We’ll also have a dedicated indoor co-working space with WIFI available throughout the event where you can get away to take care of business as necessary. Now for the gritty details - each ticket will be $99.  Half of that will go towards logistics and the other half will be donated to Care Camps, an industry supported 501c3 non-profit who’s mission is to give joy, hope, and healing power of the outdoors to children with cancer and their families at a specialized oncology camp. (https://carecamps.org/)

 Boondocking spots at The Camper’s Hub will still be available for $120 for the event(4 nights) - that’s a flat price for every spot: motorhome, trailer, tent, car camping etc - with access to fresh water spigot, RV dump station, trash services, as well as bathrooms and showers within the main building. (https://thecampershub.com/)
 Join us for 4 days of intimate gatherings all focused on making connections and improving your business.
Grab your ticket here! https://therventrepreneur.com/summit Who: All nomadic entrepreneurs
 What: The RV Entrepreneur Roundtable Where: The Campers Hub 18265 US – 550, Montrose, Colorado 81403 
When: 7-11 September 2022

 *Ouray hot springs has an entrance fee (https://ourayhotsprings.com/) 

Today we’re talking with Gabe and Rocio Rivero from Our Mixed Journey.

Gabe and Rocio are avid travelers who used to live in Puerto Rico. After Hurricane Maria ravaged the island, life was truly put in perspective for them both. They realized how quickly things can turn, and the decided that enjoying life needed to be a now thing and bit a soon thing. So, they sold everything they owned, bought a 5th wheel and a dually truck to pull it, and became full-time RVers in a little over one month's time. Since then, they've bought house as a home base, but only after full-timing for 4 years between two 5th wheels and a Class B van they still call their home on wheels.  **The content creation seminar they referenced - unfortunately, we couldn’t find the link again.**

Today we have the pleasure of talking with Chris Reed from the YouTube channel Why Not RV? 
Chris is a Marine Veteran who took a huge leap one year to change careers and can now live a life of freedom and adventure. His only professional schooling after high school was HVAC school - everything else has been self taught and Chris loves to share his knowledge through education in hopes of helping other RVers prevent some very costly mistakes or repair bills.  Chris is a full time RVer and an insurance adjuster by day - but it’s that job that spurred his entrepreneurial endeavors and allows him to create education content for YouTube.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Connect with Chris Reed:
