Talk to People Who Are Already in the Business

As part of your due diligence on opening a helicopter dealers business, be sure to speak with somebody who is already in the business. If you think owners of nearby helicopter dealers businesses will give you advice, think again. Why would they want to educate a future competitor?

However, a fellow entrepreneur who has started a helicopter dealers business on the other side of the country can be a great learning resource for you, as long as they don't view you as a competitive threat. In that case, the business owner may be more than happy to discuss the industry with you. In my experience, you may have to call ten business owners in order to find one who is willing to share his wisdom with you.
