Furloughed flight attendant. Independent CFI. 50,000+ Instagram followers. Now on the marketing team at Jeppesen ForeFlight. Carly Chamerlik's path through aviation is the new playbook, and in this episode she walks through how she built it.Host Tim Jedrek sits down with Carly to talk through her journey from a fine arts degree at United Airlines to a Part 141 program at Falcon Field with one hour of total time, building an audience on Instagram and YouTube as an independent CFI in Tennessee, getting recruited by ForeFlight through a single Instagram DM, and what flight school owners can learn from creators who are quietly out-marketing them.We also dig into ForeFlight Debrief, the automation vs fundamentals debate, what's coming at AirVenture Oshkosh, and the marketing advice every independent CFI and flight school owner should hear.🎙 The Aviation Business Podcast is brought to you by Right Rudder Marketing, the only full-service digital marketing agency built exclusively for flight schools.
