Do You Know America's #1 RV Technician?

Launching Life's Journeys - An RV Podcast

As one of the most well-connected experts in RV technical education and media, you may have heard of Chris Dougherty from Dougherty RV Consulting. Every vendor at every RV conference seems to know him – or know of him. Today, Will is talking with him about how he became the guy dealerships, RV technicians, and campers alike turn to when they need to learn how to maintain and service new RV components. Chris has been RVing since 1973 and spent 10 years living in an RV full-time. He holds multiple certifications as a technician and instructor, is the RV expert of choice for publications like RV Enthusiast Magazine and RVTravel.com, and contributes articles to RVing publications across the U.S. In this conversation, they’re also discussing:
●How a temporary turn living in an RV between selling a house and purchasing a new one turned into a 10-year adventure on the road
●Why the RV industry had to pivot when Millennials started becoming RV enthusiasts, and how marketing to them changed to address new concerns
●The reason even experienced RV techs seek out his training services
●Who the biggest competitors to the RV industry really are
●And why having MORE information about RV troubleshooting online can sometimes be a bad thing
In 2024, you can find Chris Dougherty and Dougherty RV Consulting at the Springfield RV and Camping Show in West Springfield, MA from February 16-19. He’ll also have a remote presence at the Boston RV Show in January, and you can find him in person at the Hershey RV Show next fall.
