---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi Mark, Great name, that's my son's name and my middle name. I often wonder that myself abuot clients. I'm trying to build the tuning business here, and it's tough. I thought I blew my chance of even getting my card in a ladys hands today because she asked how I would get to where she was. I explain that I'm sight impaired and that my wife or the city bus takes me to my tunings. I'm a quick wit so when another woman asked how far do I travel, I said, as far as my wife will drive me." I never tell anyone I'm new. When someone asked me today about that old junky grand piano, I said that I'm obtaining additional training in the repair end of things etc... This way I treid to make it look as if have a business where I may obtain further training as a mechanic would etc. Marshall -------------- Original message -------------- From: "Dean May" <deanmay@pianorebuilders.com> > It is all about confidence.
