We also discuss about PJ’s upcoming drone podcast segment on AskDroneU where PJ will be discussing more about success in the aviation industry and talking to business leaders in an effort to share business success secrets.

We talk about key aspects of running a successful business and how drone pilots often miss them, on today’s show, such as understanding the multiple hats that pilots need to wear while running their drone business, understanding customer requirements and working under the assumption that there would be no risk during flight missions and how pilots can work on risk mitigation and to adapt based on flying environment and situations. We also talk about business automation, drone tech and much more.

In a last segment on the show we talk about PJ’s upcoming drone podcast segment on AskDroneU and how we intend to share key business success insights from industry leaders with our listeners.
