ADU 0985: How to Avoid Personal Liabilities in a Drone Business LLC - a podcast by Drone U

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!
