I want to launch a drone company, but I am not sure how to do it. After receiving no reaction to my Facebook Marketplace ad, I am considering asking hotels if they would like any video for commercials or other uses. Kindly inform me if there is anything I can do to help. I also tried shutterstock and Betty images, but no one is buying there.

Consider offering drone footage for real estate, events, or local businesses like hotels and restaurants. You might also try freelancing platforms or start a YouTube channel to showcase your work. Networking and a strong portfolio can help attract clients.
