I started using my DJI drone back in 2015 to show my customers their roofs and everybody loved it. Huge plus plus using one
What pump system do you use? Where do I buy it?
I had a drone once. 1 day flight, It just flew off into the abyss & never came back. I still look on google maps if I can see it on the neighbours roofs. Hehe. True story
Hey guys, I commented a couple videos ago telling you guys about how I got my gear at an estate sale and landed a few clients door to door. I have an update.
I've since gotten insurance, business cards and a hat to match to have a more professional appearance.
I've also bought just some basic starter tools (drain snake, backpack pump sprayer, extension polls, brush heads, squeegee, etc.)
It's been going great, although I'm not as fast as Spencer, I imagine that will come with time.
I live in a very tourist driven economy near Yosemite, so it can be difficult to actually get in contact with homeowners since most homes here are Airbnb rentals, however I've been persistent and taken every opportunity to leave people my business card as well as offering free quotes without pushing that "salesman" vibe. I've had fantastic reception, even several people thank me for stopping at their door. I thought I'd share my approach Incase any of you are shy or find it difficult to talk to random strangers.
I always start knocking in areas where I already have a job lined up so my pitch seems less "salesman" and more neighborly. It goes something like this:
"Hi, please excuse the interruption, I know you weren't expecting me. My name is Ben and I'm doing some work in your area on [day] for one of your neighbors [name of neighbor]. I do [whatever service you think they need, solar panel cleaning, roof & gutters etc. Use discernment] and was wondering if you'd be interested in a free quote. I have a few openings left for [day] and I'm also offering free [minor addon] this month only for new clients. Is that something you would be interested in?
If they say no, leave them your business card
If they say yes, do the estimate, close the deal, an leave your business card.
Remember to smile, don't interrupt or talk over them when they speak and be natural. Don't be awkward. Practice makes perfect so if you find it difficult, practice by striking up small conversations with cashiers, baristas, servers, neighbors etc.
Hope this helps guys 👍
Really bad advice. You need to sit and pass the test to get a FAA Part 107 commercial drone certificate to use a drone like this (and then you need to register it regardless of it's weight). Plus there are plenty of areas where you can't fly or need to submit a request for authorization before you fly. These things are now actively broadcasting their location and operator information so it's only a matter of time before you get nailed with a fine.
do you still look for work in the winter, being in Washington I cant imagine many people want there roofs cleaned during then
Go to Elko, NV and blow away all of the crickets
U don't need a mini 3 A mini 2 or even if u already have a mini 1 will do it for u
I use a drone all the time.. also good for above shots once job is completed.
Well now u need a drone license with the FAA so good luck. People are probably gonna report you now.
Don't you need a license if u will be making money?
To use a drone for your business you have to get a remote aviation license and register with your state. Or you can just do it anyway since most customers have no clue.
What he doesn’t mention are the hoops you have to jump through to use that drone for commercial purposes. If you are receiving compensation while using that type of equipment you have to acquire certification to do so. Also, if the aircraft is over 250g it is to be registered with the FAA. Just a heads up.
Hello Mr George!!!

Why can't you just get a cheap drone?
