What kind of drone business do y’all have? That sounds dope as hell.

I work in the education field..I teach in south Fulton County.

I’m working on a app though that I think will be the first of its kind. I really don’t want to give out the details just yet but I’m looking into finding funding & programmers

Mostly commercial work real estate and construction. Photographing, land survey, and mapping. Want to get into search and rescue.

I always tip my hat off to educators, one of the most important jobs around forreal.

I support this bruh. Have we ever got a run down what industry everyone is into? Maybe to try and link up and build.

I'm an air traffic controller but I also have a photography business and my homie and I have a drone business as well.

I do business development and strategic partnerships with a music tech company called MyMyMusic. We were recently featured in Black Enterprise with our partnership with DJ Whoo Kid

We've got some big, big things coming for 2019

When you're building your app the biggest thing you want to identify is who your customer is (who will be using your app) and clearly be able to articulate what problem you're solving. Focus on that and developing your business plan. I wouldn't worry about investors at this point...there are a ton of accelerator and incubator companies in Atlanta (i.e. The Farm Accelerator at The Battery, Atlanta Ventures, Tech Square Labs, etc). If your concept is strong enough you can find the resources in town to build it

Yea we moved to Mableton almost 2 years ago right off Oakdale...love having a good sized house and being close to the city and the highways.

As for the gas station I'm not gonna speak on it b/c what's understood doesn't need to be explained and I'll leave it at that

Clayton and DeKalb been majority black for a while. If it werent for Alpharetta, Milton and the cities in North Fulton, then Fulton County would be majority black as well.

I dont think there is a main industry..like for example, my subdivision is probably 97% black..the neighbors I know are firemen, a teacher, a plumber and a delivery driver

North Henry County is ok, (Stockbridge, North McDonugh,) the rest is somewhat rural (Ola, Locust Grove)..Part of Hampton where Atlanta Motor Speedway is leading to Griffin is kinda rural

West Rockdale County is ok cause its right on the border of Lithonia and Stonecrest, but as a whole I consider Rockdale somewhat rural. My girl stays out there and I used to get pulled over by 3 cops every time I went to Conyers cause I have a Clayton County tag :francis:

I dont know too much about Douglas County I think @AVXL can speak on it. I know Bankhead Highway runs into Douglas Co and thats where 6 Flags is.


Clayton, DeKalb are both urban
