That sounds like a good  cold call tactic.

My curiosity is, if one guy has all of the churchs, another has all of the 
schools, another has Notre Dam, the other has another college, and yet 
another has IUSB,  plus their loyal customer base plus the other tunertechs 
whom I do not know, how do I
a. keep from stepping on toes?
b. find customers that they don' t have if the store the only one in town 
cannot hire me?

ps. Maybe I need some sort of low vision device in order to see these so 
called pianos that are out there not being tuned.  I'm seriously thinking 
about calling churches etc and saying, "Hello, I'm calling to schedule your 
piano tuning", and seeing if the take me up on it, or say, "Oh we have a 
tuner already."
(grrr pulling hair out saying how much I hate this community!)

  What is the average number of households that own a piano?



  1 in 75 ?  1 in 100 ?



  This is not a quiz, I am just asking.
