I've flown some kind of UAV since ~2003 which was an indoor coaxial helicopter. Mainly goofing off and having fun. Over the years I upgraded through a few various hobby type drones. I bought my brother's Mavic Pro 1 3 years ago and upgraded to the Mini 3 Pro almost 2 years ago.
My plan was to get my part 107 and start doing some low-end mapping flights as a small business, some real estate photography for realtors selling homes, and maybe for insurance companies to see if they need to ding homeowners to lower their risk. i.e., we were dinged for not having a net on our trampoline which I believe was due to a drone flyover. Who knew it would take DJI so long to release the SDK. Well, probably several of you with more experience. :0)
I can get the 107 and mapping education. That's the part I can do easily. I have no clue how to get started finding customers. I have run a roof & exterior cleaning business for 9 years and I could use Thumbtack to find work, but there must be other avenues. Can anybody tell me other sources to find potential customers? Any pitfalls I could avoid?
If this is all already available here, maybe just drop a couple search criteria names and piont me in the right direction please.
