Keep your repeat clients out of the marketplace.
The marketplace can have the first shoot. Every reshoot after it runs through your own portal: the client rebooks in one click at the locked price, gets their files, leaves the review. No commission, no middleman, your name on all of it.
And while you're flying, it finds the next client: building permits, storm swaths, and new businesses in your metro, scored and emailed from your own mailbox.
It finds the work you'd never hear about.
Every week it reads your metro's building permits, the storm reports from the night before, and the new businesses on the map. It matches them to the roofers, builders, brokers, and property managers already in your list, scores each one, and writes the first email with the price already in it.
You send from your own mailbox, a few a day, with a reply inbox that lives in the same desk. Replies, bounces, and unsubscribes are handled before you see them.
Own the second job.
Your clients get a portal under your name. Their past shoots, their files, a one-click rebook at the price you locked, the monthly package, a reschedule button when the weather turns. Review requests go out when the invoice is paid.
Once the direct path is easier than the marketplace, they stop using the marketplace. One saved commission a month pays for the desk.
Run the schedule from your phone.
The desk answers two questions: who needs you, and what's flying next. Fly full time or fit shoots around another job; drive time is blocked on the calendar, airspace is checked when a job is booked, and each flight gets a go, watch, or no-go the night before. Anyone you fly with sees their own jobs and uploads from the field.
Your team, your calendar, one place.
Invite the pilots you fly with. Each one signs in and sees only the jobs assigned to them, marks them flown, and uploads the files from the field. Block out the hours you can't fly and nothing gets scheduled over them.
Every booked job lands on your calendar with the drive time already around it, so two shoots never collide across town. Clients ask to reschedule from their portal and it shows up as a request, not a phone call.
Pricing.
Flat monthly, no commission on anything you book. Payments go straight to your own Stripe account; SortieBase never touches your money. The Leads tier adds a one-time setup that wires your metro: your permit feeds, your storm radius, your map queries, your mailbox.
The first ten operators lock in Desk plus Leads at $99 a month for as long as they stay, in exchange for telling us what's wrong with it.
