A couple years ago, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life.
I didn't want to take out a student loan for college,
and the kids going to college seemed to struggle finding a high paying job anyway.
I HATED working minimum wage.
I needed another option...
Around that time, I got my first acoustic piano.
(I played an electric keyboard since I was 4 :)
The piano I got was in rough shape though. I thought about hiring someone to fix it so I Googled "piano tuners near me."
I found two piano tuners, but they were pretty far away and charged SO MUCH!!
I asked a piano tuner:
"why do you charge so much?"
and he answered:
"If I charged ANY less, there is NO WAY I would be able to keep up with demand...
I'm booked months out, and sometimes I have to turn people away."
I thought this was odd, so I went back to google and looked for more piano tuners, but this time, I didn't look for them in my city.
I was curious to see if piano tuners in other cities just like mine were having this problem
I started finding a pattern everywhere...
Every city around my size had only 1-2 piano tuners at most.
Everyone piano tuner I called agreed to the same thing...
THERE AREN'T ENOUGH PIANO TUNERS TO MEET THE DEMAND
"we NEED more tuners." They would all say
someone even offered me a job over the phone...
on the spot...
when I had no prior training...
Now that I am a full time piano tuner, I can't agree more with all the other pro's... we need more piano technicians.
there are no tuners 100+ miles north of my home...
so if any school, church, piano teacher, or student has a piano, I'm traveling 1.5 hours there and 1.5 hours back.
And get this... the customers are paying $70+ for a travel fee every time simply because I'm the only option.
There are literally thousands of cases like this across the globe!!
If you don't believe me, call up a local piano tuner and ask how busy they are.
The first step of course is to learn the skill. The best way to do that is through the Piano Technician Academy course.
Let me ask you something...
If all this course did was allow you to make $80/Hour for just one day a week... how much would it be worth to you?
