Hi, Marshall: It's the same here in San Diego. The quality of your work speaks for itself. What is it about the economy that sucks that you don't understand? People are losing their homes and their jobs. Is it any wonder they don't get their pianos tuned regularly? It shouldn't be a surprise, and it's just human nature. Just keep your name in their minds by asking them, and be courteous if they refuse. My guess is that those who don't return calls are implicitly saying "no thanks just now". When things look a little better, they'll be calling you.

I've been told I do quality work. Maybe I feel it more because I haven't been in business as long as someone who might have 300 customers and 30 of theirs don't return calls or reschedule. do you guys run into things like people not returning calls, moving etc? I'm finding this to be rediculous.
