Keeping yourself organized while you are on the go takes some proper planning. Here are a few tips to get yourself started.
Laptop and Accessories: When it comes to a mobile office, there is probably no piece of equipment more important than your laptop. For that reason, you will want to invest in the best hard case protection that you can afford. Accidents happen, and you will want to make sure that your laptop is as protected as you can get it. There is no shortage of places to find a high quality hard shell case, but you might want to start at your manufacturer s website and see what accessories they have for your model. If the prices don t match your budget, take a look online or on Ebay to see if you can find that exact case for less money. There is no reason that you can t keep your laptop protected, and it is a virtual certainty that you will be glad you did.
Another accessory that you will want to have on hand for your mobile office is a car charger. Though newer laptop batteries are built to keep a charge better than in previous years, you ll want to have as many methods of charging your battery as possible, and a car charger can be a big help in between appointments and meetings.
Cell Phone and Accessories: It should go without saying that you will, of course, need a cell phone, with a plan that gives you plenty of monthly minutes, as well as a professional sounding voicemail system and outgoing message. Make sure that your phone is equipped with call waiting and caller ID features so that you can take the important calls whenever they may occur. These days, you will want to have a texting plan as well. As with your laptop, you will want to get a car charger for your cell phone as well, so you are never without a phone, and are always ready to conduct business.
Many states have laws against using your hands to talk on your cell phone while you are driving, so make sure that you have a hands free system such as bluetooth or a wired headset so you can take calls when you are driving.
Car Supplies and Accessories: There are a lot of different car organizers available on the market, so take a good look around at office supply stores to find one that works for you. Get something that can hole and organize post it notes, pen and calculator holders, etc. For your trunk, you should opt for a few smaller containers to keep things accessible and well organized, and so you won t be rummaging through your trunk looking for an important sample.
Office Supplies: There are a great many office supplies that are small and portable, such as laminators, binding machines, and three hole punches. You can keep these organized in their own place in your trunk and ready to use whenever they are needed in some cases, you might be able to find car chargers for these items as well, or in the case of laminators, you can opt for a cold laminating system that doesn t use electricity.
