How Easy Is It to Start a Drone Business?

The beauty with this is it is incredibly
easy to get started, but you got to get
kind of out of your own way in order to
do it cuz the the drone isn't super
important. Um the technology the
technology that's available in a drones,
the newest drones now, it's good enough
is here and they're way up here. So for
some of the basic stuff you get into
more of the advanced mapping or
orthomosaic photoggramometry and stuff
than than different different types of
drones and stuff. But for for the basic
stuff to and when I say basic stuff like
this could easily build you know a h
100,000 $200,000 $300,000 a year side
hustle for people um getting out there
and doing it. And probably the biggest
thing is just that that confidence to go
out and and do it. Now, one of the
things that we've done is we've tried to
eliminate every barrier. Like when
people join our network, we all the
things that they felt like they needed
to have. So scripts and email copy and
website and social media stuff and
stationary and business cards and and
you know, the marketplace and an actual
portfolio of of videos and images and
the type of work they can do. Um, all
that's there, we license it to them so
they can they can actually show up with
to a client with confidence. Um, and
then all the support that's needed to go
out and do that and kind of hold them
accountable. But the reality is you
don't need any of that stuff. That's
just stuff that people get hung up on
that they feel they need. Now, is it
helpful and beneficial? Yes. Is it
necessary? Absolutely not.
This just this just helps eliminate
barriers, make things easier and
basically speed the process to success
and clear the path there because a lot
of that stuff has to be done eventually
and that takes away like one of the
things we talk about all the time are
you should spend 80% of your workday on
RGAs revenue generating activities and
really in the drone space now the only
revenue generating activity that you can
do is being face to face eyeball to
eyeball or as Bob Proctor would always
say, skin-to-skin. Um, and meeting with
people because the reality is most of
the clients that you're going to serve
and help and and be able to provide
value to, they don't even know that they
need you. So, they're not out looking
for you. So, you're not you're not going
to and that that boils down into so much
stuff. the type of marketing to do that
you do, the type of messaging you do,
the type of website you build, you know,
all that's different if you're going to
have a sales support type business,
which is essentially what we have now,
because people aren't googling. I talked
to drone pilots and they've set aside,
you know, $3,000 or $5,000 a month for
SEO. And I'm like, nobody's looking for
you. Why would you why would you invest
all that money on on for something that
isn't being searched for? you know, most
of the people that are searching drone
businesses are other drone businesses
that are out there to see what they're
what they're out doing. So, you know,
it's just it's it's crazy that it's
there, but I think that's the that's the
the the biggest key is just is just
getting out there while it's easy and
taking advantage of it um while the
opportunity is there because again,
there's this confusion and stuff.
everything's not standardized and you
know there's still the regulatory stuff
is still pretty wild west but that's
where all this opportunity comes. You
know it comes from and and you just have
to you have to take advantage of it.
