5 Simple Steps to Create a Mobile Office Kit

We’re all spending more hours working in our houses these days.

But it isn’t always possible to dedicate a space in your home for your business. Sometimes a work area looks like a the kitchen counter, coffee table, or couch, and with a little creativity, your home probably has a few great places to hunker down and get work done.

The goal of any workspace is to be a productive setting to get work done. And when we’re hustling hard or working on a project, it’s usually best practice to create some sort of setup to help your work sessions be efficient.

But when you don’t have an office or a desk, you might not want to leave your stuff set up round the clock.

What’s the solution? You need a mobile office system.

This summer, I came up with a simple way to pack up my office to work productively from anywhere.
