Equipment Needed for Mobile Online Work:

• Starlink Roam is most reliable as it uses a small satellite dish. All you need is a clear shot to the sky and it works all over the US, Canada, and Mexico.  Use our link for a FREE month of service when you sign up!
• Weboost is an antenna that is designed to boost a weak cell phone signal, so there has to be some signal for it to work. 
• A  mobile hotspot allows you to use your smart phone as a wifi connection and is included in most cell carrier plans. You must have a strong signal for it to work properly.  We recently switched to Visible and absolutely love it!  It's the best coverage for the lowest price we've ever had -- all over the continent.  Use our Visible link and friend code "3PMG9VR" to get your first month of service for $20 off.

Accounting & Business Start-Up Resources

If you are seeking to start your own mobile business, we can't say enough about our incredible accounting team, Single Track Accounting. To say that they GET us and our mobile business is an understatement, as they are RVers themselves.  We can also recommend banks and credit cards that are awesome for business start-ups, just give us a holler and we'll send you resources.

We've happily lived and worked out of  72 square feet since 2012.  Learn how we manage to keep everything we need to live in all climates, cook gourmet food, go kayaking, backpacking, cycling, and run a small mobile business.
