Wow, it has been six months since I’ve recorded an episode of the RV Entrepreneur podcast.
I’ve missed this present a lot. And you.
Earlier this 12 months when COVID-19 shook issues up I made a decision to take a break from the present. It was form of the right storm with us having to cancel our convention in every week and take care of what felt like a heavy state of affairs. And then one week was two after which one way or the other was six months.
After some time, I wasn’t certain if I used to be going to deliver the present again. I assumed perhaps it had run its course.
Alyssa stored encouraging me to no less than pop again on the podcast to launch the final couple of episodes that I had already recorded earlier this 12 months. I stored pushing it off as a result of, to be trustworthy, I didn’t know if I used to be achieved with the present or if I used to be able to let it go. This podcast has meant a lot to me over the previous few years because it began.
But what introduced me again was… you.
Over the previous couple of months, I’ve had an increasing number of folks attain out, asking if the podcast was going to return again. I had one girl inform me about how she used to hearken to the present together with her late husband earlier than they began touring and the way a lot the podcast meant to her. I heard tales of how this present helped folks make a giant change in hitting the street or beginning a enterprise.
Hearing these tales and having you guys touch upon the iTunes itemizing and ask when the present was coming again and electronic mail or tweet or Instagram message us was the tipping level for me to return again on the RV Entrepreneur.
And the plan isn’t simply to return again on the podcast to launch the ultimate episodes that I recorded earlier this 12 months, however for the present to simply come again. Period.
Thank you a lot for listening and being wonderful.
Today’s episode is extra of an replace than a full-on episode, the principle goal being to share that the podcast is coming again!
But I did need to share a bit replace of what has occurred this 12 months after I give up recording and what shall be arising in future episodes.
As I discussed firstly of the present, the height of COVID hit this 12 months just a few days earlier than Alyssa and I placed on our 4th annual RV Entrepreneur Summit. In the second we needed to scramble and resolve to both cancel and postpone our occasion or transfer it to a web-based summit in lower than 4 days.
In April we confronted tornados within the south and felt displaced with loads of different full-time RVers who had been making an attempt to navigate the place it was okay to journey to or learn how to keep put when many parks had been shutting down.
This summer season after restrictions loosened, we spent a number of months looking out to purchase a campground in Colorado, 10 completely different properties on the market to transform to an superior place for different RV entrepreneurs.
And then most just lately, I made a decision to throw my title into the hat for an funding pitch collection occurring on the western slope in Colorado for $250k in seed funding for our software program firm, Campground Booking. Never having participated in a pitch collection earlier than I actually had no concept how this complete expertise was going to go…
In the following few episodes, I’m going to share what occurred with our convention, campground search, and the funding collection. Some information is sweet and different information is… nicely, I assume you’ll simply need to see within the upcoming episodes.
The upcoming collection is supposed to spotlight a few of our experiences this 12 months in journey and enterprise after which I’ll get again to some superior interviews I’ve lined up with some unimaginable corporations within the RV house — just like the founders of TheDyrt and a high-end luxurious RV resort and a few wonderful RVers who share their tales of constructing companies on the street.
It’s good to be again and I’ll see you on the following episode of the RV Entrepreneur podcast. ????
