Drone World: The Podcast by CoptrzShow Notes
Welcome to Drone World, the drone podcast by Coptrz! In this episode, your host Jamie Cording is joined by our latest successful clients to start their very own drone business - BB Drone Services directors Andy Blake and Jason Brice.
Andy & Jason share how a simple picture on a whiteboard turned into a full-fledged drone business. Today they use their experience from the RAF to offer a range of services from security and inspection to surveying and more. They also share their marketing tips, business advice and their experience winning the first-ever people's choice award at COPTRZ CON 2021.
Jason says, "The idea of owning my own company 2 years ago would've scared the hell out of me because I thought it was the hardest thing in the world, and it's not easy, there's ups and downs, but I'm glad I took the plunge. And I'm very glad I did it with someone."
"Sometimes we have to pinch ourselves over how quickly things have moved. We've been going since the end of February, but from where we were to where we are now, it's been a crazy ride!"
