What Should I Do?

Can you help me decide? As an entrepreneur, there is a new strategy for producing products and services for customers. It is a customer driven approach that solves your customer's problems. I will be teaching two classes at the Piano Technicians Guild national convention in July and I will have a table set up in the exhibits area.

Your help will greatly help me to help others learn more about piano tuning and repair. SURVEY Thank you, Mark
