Yes! Great idea - thanks for sharing that with our community. I believe they call that your 'warm market' right? That would be people you already know like friends and family. Maybe do a couple of freebies to get started and have them leave a review on your Google Biz profile.

Awesome! I'm glad you found the video helpful!

Yep, thx for the kind words!

That’s so awesome to hear! Starting something new is ALWAYS scary, but success does not come from staying in your comfort zone.

Awesome - that's so great! Congrats on passing the 107 and getting the insurance - those are huge steps in the right direction. Next up - company logo, website, Google biz profile, biz social accounts, Paypal (for invoicing and collecting payment), etc. Lastly, if you don't already have one, I would suggest creating a service agreement/contract. Your clients will be expecting this. If you don't already have one, let me know and I'll share with you the one I use.

Yes, that's a lot to do! And no, Jonathan, I do not have a contract. I would love to see yours. Thx, Don

@@rathmorg8077 You can find the contract I use here: jonathanrichey.gumroad.com/

Thx, Jonathan!

No problem! And congrats on starting a new venture! It won't be easy, but don't give up - it's a marathon, not a sprint.

Thanks for letting me know!

Pricing is dependent on multiple factors such as where you live, the scope of the project, deadline, budget, deliverables, etc. My suggestion would be to research competitors in your area and get a rough estimate of what they are charging and then adjust your pricing accordingly. Unfortunately I cannot give you a direct answer on that topic.

@JonathanRichey great answer 👍 👏 👌 I understand and thanks for the great content am learning alot. Haven't done my first proyect but working on the structure that you are saying on these series 👍👍

@@fernandojuarbe77 Great! I'm glad you are finding the videos helpful. If you need some additional help, I have a few resources available here: jonathanrichey.gumroad.com

You are welcome! Yes, I have a new video coming out this week!

@JonathanRichey thank you 👍👍👍 am at florida tampa, but Am organizing everything by my self, so people like you help me alot

@@fernandojuarbe77 If you have any suggestions for content you'd like to see on the channel, please let me know!

@@JonathanRichey okay

Not silly. I've seen it done before. I think you would need to justify using that vs. a gimbal though. Flying a drone inside a house is risky and could cause significant damage if you crash so make sure you have that insurance! But, it could also be a way to separate you from the competition. Lastly, I would look at using an FPV drone because it can fly in ways traditional drones cannot.

@@JonathanRichey thank you so much

@@eddyeverett No problem!

I'm using the Audio-Technica AT875R condenser mic. You can learn more about it here - amzn.to/3wwOVj8

You are welcome! Let me know what questions or pain points you have when it comes to starting a drone biz.

Right on, thanks for the correction.

Thanks for watching and sharing your opinion. I've actually had great success with any Sigma lens I have shot on. However, my experience is limited and it is possible in a different context (like shooting action sports) the AF is not as good as Sony, but that might be a good idea for a future video!

I've never heard that it has the worst AF.

Interesting comparison. I'll see if I can get my hands on the the Sirui lenses. Thanks for the suggestion!

@@JonathanRichey Are you on Instagram? Facebook?

No problem, thx for watching! I'm curious, why would you pick the GM II ??

Awesome! Glad you liked it!

Hmmm...that's a good question. I know that Mark shoots mainly on Sony cameras in slog3 which means he is probably exposing 1 to 2 stops over. Also, these LUTs do not require any REC709 conversion so in your workflow, you simply apply his LUTs first and then adjust as needed. I hope that helps!

@@JonathanRichey much appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to reply

@@DLundgren22 No problem!

Besides studying for the Part 107, what other drone education are you looking for? I might be able to help you with that. Let me know!

Enjoying Jonathan's videos for the business side of drones....as for 107: I would caution to study content that's updated to include 2024 information as Remote ID is such a game changer and major aspect of the exam it alone could affect your score from pass to fail. Most of the best guides on TH-cam are a bit outdated. Peltier Photo Courses - They offer a $15 two-month access to it's pool of 300 practice exam questions where you can take the 60 question practice test unlimited times. This may have been the most effective and invaluable tool for me. Every practice exam online is the same it seems. Peltier rose above the competition. I retook it maybe 10 times, and my score went from a fledging 68-70% initially to mid 90s come the day of my exam. Free Content, Mr Migs - After my first 68% and I realized how little I knew, I fount Mr. Migs on TH-cam - He really goes into the abstract parts of the exam that many "run of the mill" study guides miss or glaze over; weather, runway orientation, Remote ID, etc. Courses, Pilot Institute. My rationale: Consider the content that's available for free; they're the ones posting actual interviews with FAA reps on new drone law changes and what's more is they're only one of a few listed companies that the FAA directly refers you to from the .gov website. Committed to legal drone operation, they'll even send you FAA registration stickers for your drone for free, sign up for nothing. They have a ton of free content which is probably more than you'll need, although it's worth scratching the surface to discover all they teach, especially post 107. (Not affiliated with any of those - just what I used to score a 90%. Spent $15 on studying. I could have for nothing, but the full access Peltier practice exams really gave me peace of mind.)

Pilot institute

When I studied for my Part 107 I bought a prep course from Drone Launch Academy passed on the first try.

I respect your opinion but I don't agree with it. Thanks for watching.

@JonathanRichey agreeing or not is all good. However that's the majority of youtubers that are monetizing their channels with violations all over the place. This is terrible for pilots who need structure and good direction oh well. Just another try hard channel

Maybe one day!
