Professional vinyl lettering as well, not the magnetic signs. The phone book works to a degree, but it is almost always a price checker. If I take the time to explain what RPT means ( I don't think I would have to explain it if it were Certified Piano Tech) and give them an idea what the price range is in this area, I typically get the business. I do not pursue other Technicians customers at all, they are my friends and I would be very uncomfortable with that approach. Also, for some unknown reason, a number of piano teachers in the area are recommending me, but I have had no contact with any of them. Mike Mike McCoy Registered Piano Technician Langhorne, Pa.
