Okay, here is a blog post about my experience with building a creative agency convoy, written in the style you requested:

So, I had this idea to start a creative agency. Not just any agency, but a convoy, a fleet of mobile creative studios. Think food trucks, but for design, branding, and marketing. I wanted to bring creativity directly to clients, wherever they are. Here’s how I went about making it a reality.
Getting Started
First things first, I needed some wheels. I spent weeks checking out used vans and buses online and in my area. It was a grind, let me tell you. Finally, I found a couple of old school buses that were being auctioned off. I put in some bids and ended up winning two of them. They were a bit beat up, but I saw potential.
The Renovation Process
Next up was the real hard work – turning these old buses into cool mobile studios. I’m not much of a handyman, so I called up some buddies who knew their way around tools and engines. We spent weekends tearing out the old seats, painting the interior, and laying down new floors. It was tough work, but seeing the transformation was super rewarding.
- Stripped the buses: Took out all the seats, ripped up the old flooring.
- Prepped and painted: Sanded down the walls, gave everything a fresh coat of paint. I went with bright, fun colors to make the space feel creative.
- Laid new flooring: Put in some nice laminate flooring that looked good and was easy to clean.
- Built workstations: We made some simple desks and installed comfy chairs. Also, added some storage shelves for our gear.
Equipping the Studios
Once the buses were looking decent, I started filling them with all the stuff we’d need. I bought some used computers, drawing tablets, and other creative tools. I also made sure each bus had a solid internet connection. This was important because we needed to be able to work from anywhere and stay connected with clients.
- Computers and tablets: Scored some deals on used iMacs and Wacom tablets.
- Software: Got the necessary design and marketing software.
- Internet: Set up mobile hotspots so we could have internet on the go.
Building the Team
With the buses almost ready, I started looking for people to join my convoy. I reached out to some talented friends and also put out some feelers on social media. I was looking for designers, writers, and marketers who were up for an adventure. I found a few awesome people who were excited about the idea of a mobile creative agency.

Hitting the Road
Finally, the day came when we were ready to roll. We packed up the buses, said goodbye to our families, and hit the road. Our first stop was a small town a few hours away. We parked our buses in the town square and started offering our services. People were curious, and we ended up getting a few clients right off the bat. It was an amazing feeling to see our hard work pay off.
Challenges and Lessons
Of course, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. We ran into our fair share of challenges. Sometimes the buses broke down, sometimes we struggled to find clients, and sometimes we just missed home. But we kept at it, and we learned a lot along the way. We learned how to fix a bus engine on the side of the road, how to pitch our services to strangers, and how to work together as a team in a cramped space. The buses were our rolling offices, and it did get a little crowded sometimes!
The Results
After a few months on the road, we had built up a pretty good client base. We had worked with all sorts of businesses, from small mom-and-pop shops to larger companies. We had designed logos, built websites, and created marketing campaigns. And we had done it all while traveling the country in our creative convoy. It was an incredible experience, and I’m so glad I took the leap and made it happen.
So, that’s the story of how I built a creative agency convoy. It was a wild ride, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. If you’re thinking about starting your own business or doing something a little out of the ordinary, I say go for it. It might be tough, but it’s definitely worth it.
