THERE'S BIG MONEY IN DRONE PHOTOGRAPHY

A lot of realtors are good at selling homes but not so good when it comes to photography. Especially drone photography, which studies have shown sells homes 68% faster.

Drone photos don't only look cool, they allow buyers to get a better understanding of what the property looks like, its dimensions, and the surrounding area.

Residential is one.

The other is commercial properties - think hotels and resorts. Both are huge opportunities where most realtors still don’t understand or have someone to do this for them.

How much can you make selling drone photos/videos?
An average house photoshoot costs $150 - $400. You can charge something similar. Or more if you’re also providing video. Do just one home on the weekends and that's an extra $600 - $1,600 a month.

It doesn’t take many clients to start making good money.

And if you’re able to get a hotel to say yes to your beautiful drone shots showing the ocean and beach - you can charge thousands for a single shoot.

GETTING STARTED IS PRETTY EASY TOO - HERE’S THE 3 STEPS:

1. Get a drone

If you don’t already have one. This will be the most expensive part.

A good drone like a DJI Mini Pro 3 will cost you $759. This drone shoots in 4k video and has a 48MP camera (which is really good for a drone).

It can also easily fit in your backpack, which is nice if you’re traveling.

Once you’ve got the drone do some test flights. The last thing I want is you crashing it into a building (speaking from experience).

2. Get your certifications

Where you’re allowed to fly your drone will depend on your state and city laws. The FAA doesn’t mess around when it comes to drones handing out heavy fines if you don’t abide by the laws, especially in big cities like New York.

Luckily, becoming a commercial drone pilot is relatively straightforward. You’ll need to pass the FAA’s Part 107 exam, which lets you fly in any state (while following their laws). This costs $175.

Once you’ve done that, there’s a $5 fee to register your drone and you’re ready to get flying!

3. Get clients

The easiest way to get realtors and commercial property owners to buy your work is to come to them with the finished product.

Don’t just ask if you can take drone shots of their property - do it and show them what they’re missing out on.

Maybe you even offer one free video for the first go-round and then charge for any pictures/videos after that. Anything to get your clientele rolling.

It’s going to be hard for a realtor to say no if you provide beautiful drone shots of the property and even specifically mark where the property line starts and ends - something that I’ve seen become more popular on Zillow as of late.

The other route you can go is commercial. 

Many smaller hotels and buildings don’t have drone operators on site to include these drone shots on their websites.

If I were a hotel in a prime location, I’d want to showcase this on my website to lure in more guests. Scour for hotels that haven’t done this and come to them with stunning drone photos/videos they can easily put on their website the same day!

And that’s all I’ve got. If you have any questions reply to this email and I’ll get back to you! And let me know your thoughts below!👇
