Marketing Methodology and Philosophy

What does it mean to be a Silver Hawk Aviation, LLC client?

It means having confidence and peace-of-mind, knowing we are bringing our experience, commitment, life-long relationships, and every available resource to bear in an organized and systematic approach dedicated to effecting the satisfactory sale of your aircraft.

In addition to our experience with domestic sales, Silver Hawk Aviation, LLC is equally versed in the international markets. We’re experienced in negotiating the often bewildering regulatory hurdles. Certification requirements, Certificates of Airworthiness for Export, JAR-OPS/EASA compliance, international regulations - our global expertise means that we can and will extend the appeal of your aircraft to all corners of the world.

These are the most dynamic and peculiar times in anyone’s memory. It’s no longer a ‘seller’s market.’ Adaptation and market familiarity are essential skills today. And in a market where a buyer has choices and where all else might be equal, buyers – more than ever – are choosing to do business with the people with whom they feel most comfortable.

How will Silver Hawk Aviation, LLC go about selling your plane? Here's an overview:

Initial Market Analysis:

Prior to the formalization of any agreement(s), our experiences have shown that in order to develop the best and most successful relationship with our clients, it’s critical to start with the fundamentals. We want to make sure that we have an excellent mutual understanding of your aircraft. Many times, an owner’s perspective and perception of their aircraft will be at considerable variance with the broker’s – and without either realizing it. This is analogous to building a good home on a bad foundation. In order to prevent that – and prior to any agreements - we will gather critical information from you from which we will prepare a Market Analysis specific to your aircraft. Our analysis will be based on both current and projected market conditions. Anticipating market conditions is difficult but fundamentally important to the overall success of the marketing of your plane - and it’s also where Silver Hawk Aviation, LLC excels. We’ll share our findings with you and ask you for your frank perception of your aircraft. We want to ensure that our perceptions are the same, enabling us to form a cohesive team working from the same page to achieve the same goal – the satisfactory sale of your aircraft. And frankly, the most important factor affecting the sale of a plane today is price.

Internet Advertising:

Today, the Internet is everyone’s real source for aviation information and if you’re not there, you’re simply not in the game. Silver Hawk Aviation, LLC takes maximum advantage of every possible resource on the Internet that demonstrates even moderate traffic. If someone is looking for a plane, we make sure that they are going to find yours – nearly instantly. In a few keystrokes - from any Internet accessible computer in the world - they are going to have available to them the photos, description, specifications, and contact information – now. And the information we make available through these websites is exceptionally well prepared and presented. In what can be a ‘crowded field,’ we make sure your plane is going to stand out.

Website Advertising:

There are dozens of websites that exhibit aircraft for sale, but essentially there are only a few that manage to capture the lion’s share of traffic. We know which they are and your plane will be featured on all of them.
