Step 5 of my 9-step process is creating a website where everything comes together in one convenient place.
Most people think the point of a website is to be found on Google. Nope. The main purpose of your website is to have everything an operator needs to āshopā your skill sets all in one spot. Your portfolio. Your introduction video. Easy contact buttons like email and WhatsApp. Everything.
When you network and hand someone your business card, you have a QR code on it that leads straight to your website. That QR code never changes. But your website? It evolves as your skill sets evolve. You add new portfolio pieces. You update your services. You showcase your growth. The QR code stays the same, but the content behind it gets better and better.
Your website makes it ridiculously easy for operators and flight departments to see who you are. They can watch your introduction video and get a feel for your vibe and personality. They can scroll through your portfolio and see exactly what you bring to the table. And they can contact you immediately with one click. No digging through Instagram highlights. No waiting for you to respond to a DM. Everything they need to decide if youāre the right fit? Itās right there.
I had a student who handed out business cards with her QR code at a networking event. Within a week, she had three operators reach out because they scanned her QR code, watched her intro video, and saw her portfolio. She made it easy for them to say yes.
Your website isnāt about being fancy. Itās about being functional. Operators want to know: Can you do the job? Will you fit the vibe? Can I reach you quickly? Your website answers all three questions in under two minutes.
Everything should matchāyour resume, your LinkedIn, your website. Cohesive and professional across all platforms. Thatās how you build a personal brand that gets you hired.
Remember: 80% of private aviation jobs arenāt posted. Your website is one of the key tools that makes it convenient for operators to evaluate you, and contact you without friction.
