There’s a growing community of RV’ers who now work from the road. RLC Design Services is actually run from a 2004 Airstream. So yes, it’s possible to effectively work at different locations and virtually. The fact that this is still a question on many RV’ers minds is something of a surprise to me. See, I’ve been doing remote work since …
Buckskin Mountain State Park
The latest from Arizona The Airstream is back in Arizona now. After more than a week in the California desert we’ve re-pointed our compass to AZ. Currently we’re contacting parks in the Havasu area that might need web assistance and maybe a quick video tour of their park. In the meantime I thought it would be fun to create a …
Is your RV Park a destination?
Traveling the country we’ve stopped into a lot of RV Parks. Some parks were on the way to our final destination. Other parks of course were the destination. And often times a park that was “on the way,” actually became a destination for us. RV’ers go from Point A to Point B with a goal in mind. Visit this national …
Virtual RV Park Tours With Something Extra
Recently we announced our virtual park tour service here at RLC Design. What we didn’t mention was an extra service included with the video tour……. Aerial photography and video for the parks we work with. Technology is racing ahead, and we like to keep pace with it. That’s why we recently added an “unmanned drone” to our arsenal of …
Repairing a damaged online reputation
This morning I spent some time cruising through RV Park website links. I pulled up Allstays and RV Park Reviews and went to town on some communities near my current location. And I ended up focusing on Ash Fork, AZ. Ash Fork is a small town right off of Route 40 and on historic Route 66. Whenever I go to …
RV Park Websites, why update them? Well, here’s the pitch
Most parks today have some form of web presence. Many of the websites though are pretty poor quality, dated, and they don’t help potential guests make the final decision to book. On top of that, given the shift in mobile computing toward Tablets and SmartPhones, many of the sites are not setup to work well on those devices. So, what’s …
What the statistics are saying
I’ve been watching my clients’ stats very closely on the Internet. And what I’m learning is interesting to say the least. Each client has used a lot of print media advertising and the “old school” RV park listings. You know, like Trailer Life’s directory, or Woodalls. And what I’m seeing in the referral numbers is a little shocking to both …
Park Manager Lite 1.0 Is Now Available
We’re happy to announce that Park Manager Lite is now available for RV Parks across the country. While there are many RV Park management solutions out there, this stand alone database application is designed for smaller RV parks that don’t feel they need a full Point of Sale system currently. Traveling the country from 2006 – 2013 we’ve learned a …
More about mobile websites for RV Parks
I’ve finally found some free time to actually work on my own marketing. Clients’ work comes first, my own work comes second. Ah, isn’t that the way in any business? Today I’ve posted a quick video on the value of mobilized websites for RV Parks. It’s only 5 minutes long, so hopefully that’s short enough for folks with a limited …
The Allstays App – Getting parks a new client base
Many months ago as I discussed my idea of renovating RV Park websites with an old friend they’d suggested I check out the AllStays app for my IPhone and IPad. It’s a fantastic little app that is only $10, and you can use it to find campgrounds anywhere across the U.S. Experimenting with it I’ve found the information to be …
