Description

Can you Get into Trouble for Using your Personal Funds in Your Drone Business?
Today's question is about limiting liability in a drone business. Are you risking liability if you use your personal funds to manage an LLC?



Our caller, Scott from Denver, CO, has come up with an excellent drone business question. In the past, we have talked about the benefits of forming an LLC for your drone business. Scott is wondering if he can use his personal funds to run his drone business LLC. Can Scott get into trouble with the IRS for doing so?

Forming a drone business LLC will allow you to establish a clear boundary between your personal and business assets. However, as is the case with most businesses, you might need to infuse your personal funds in the initial stages to keep your business going. Do you risk personal liabilities by doing so? In this show, you will learn how to fund your drone business without violating any IRS guidelines. Thanks for the question, Scott. Fly Safe!

We’re Drone U, a group of guys who have turned their passion for flight into a profitable business. We love hearing from our fans, and we love helping by answering their questions. That’s why we started the Ask Drone U podcast in 2015. Since then, we are one of the largest, most popular DAILY drone podcasts out there. Each episode features an actual question submitted from someone just like you! We wish we could answer everyone’s question(s), but we’ll do our best to get through as many of them as we can. So plug in those headphones because it’s time to learn together about everything drone: FAA, insurance, business strategies, videography, drone tips, flight techniques, drone tricks, expert advice, cameras, gimbals, and so much more. #askdroneu
