What do you do when you have a plan for making money on the road, but once you hit the road that plan 100% falls to pieces and doesn’t work? That’s exactly what happened to Nick Peterson from LivinLightly when he and his wife Shae hit the road a couple years ago.
In episode 3 of The RV Entrepreneur I sat down with Nick to hear how he and his wife bounced back after his software start up didn’t take off.
What’s cooler than Nick’s story of pivoting his business and income strategy, is how he and his wife went about planning their departure for traveling in an RV. Nick and Shae came up with a long list of all the obstacles that were holding them back from hitting the road (including paying off debt, finding an RV, etc.) and literally took a year and half crossing off every item on that list.
Pumped for you to hear this episode!
In this episode we talk about:
- How Nick and Shae built their income from a niche site called TeachersPayTeachers.com
- Creating a plan of attack before hitting the road
- How much money you should have saved up before hitting the road
- Nick’s original business idea that totally tanked and how he overcame it
- Building niche websites that pay you money via affiliate sales

What do you use for internet on the road?
