Some people have an idea what they want to do after they “retire” and others just know they aren’t satisfied with what they are doing. Finances, geography, family, education, and health all play a part in a person’s limitations to pursue a new career or goal. How does one explore the possibilities? Who has the time? Where does one go?
What we all need is a Coach to help us navigate the road blocks! A Coach provides training, encouragement and empowerment. He gives direction and focus to prevent one from heading in the wrong direction. The road blocks to empowerment can be daunting if one doesn’t have a clue how to navigate them! Before anything else, a person needs to develop a mental and tangible plan based on solid investigation. As a result of training, a person finds the determination to hurdle over all the things that stand in the way of reaching a goal.
Finding a Coach is a great way to facilitate a move from desire to reality. How does one find a “Coach” for a major life change? There are associations, conferences and seminars that one can attend to be “coached.” The problem is that they are also expensive to join or attend and take a lot of valuable time. Too often, a person has to already be on that career path or meet certain requirements in order to even become a member or attend a seminar. Then again, there are often prohibitive expenses such as travel expenses and time off work to attend the conferences and seminars.
Travel is probably the number one goal or dream included in almost everyone’s future plans or “Bucket List.” To be able to travel to someplace new AND do something new to make money is almost too good to be true. Most people, however, have never heard or thought of traveling in an RV or pulling a Fifth Wheel or trailer to a new destination of their dreams. Most are clueless they could exchange part time work for a site or even get paid, possibly even writing off many of their expenses. Workamping is a rare exception to that career path change many are looking for…combining travel with work!About Workamper News
Workamper News began in 1987 as an eight-page newsletter distributed to a niche market. The term Workamper, a registered trademark, was coined by then-owners Greg and Debbie Robus, to describe anyone who combines any kind of work with the RV camping lifestyle. Designed to put mostly retired or semi-retired RVers and employers together, the publication initially focused on campground jobs. Today, the four-color magazines contain at least 62 pages of information about job vacancies from coast to coast in the United States and some in Canada, as well as features on great Workamping destinations, Workamper and Employer profiles, and general information pertaining to Workamping and Rving. The introduction of the internet enabled Workamper News to expand its services through the years; besides the print and online magazine, Workamper members participate in a variety of forums, webinars,
Situations Wanted and resume posting, blogs and communities. They are educated through the Workamper University program. Employer clients post job opportunities, review resumes, showcase their campground, state or national park, or business opportunities. An online store sells books and DVDs for the RVer and Workamper. Since 2005, owners Steve and Kathy Jo Anderson diligently manage the operations. Daughter, Jody Anderson Duquette joined the Company in 2006 after earning a graphic design degree. Techie-husband Luke Duquette, came on board in 2010. Nine employees work in-house at 709 W. Searcy Street in Heber Springs, AR. Workamper News continues to expand their horizon, providing marketing tools for both Workampers and Employers to be successful.
