There is a big diffrence between $45 and $150. I agree with Michelle. Charge what you feel comfortable charging, while making a comfortable living. Each person should judge for themselves what the custmers are comfortable paying. In a sparsely populated outlying county, word gets around very fast. Although Michele might be the best tuner around, the piano is not a necessity of life. If the people think they are being taken advantage of, they will stop having their pianos serviced, and she'll be out of job. Wim ******* Hi Wim and all. In our "sparsely populated outlying county" I feel like I am reeducating an entire community. Many of them have not had their pianos tuned in a very long time simply because there was only one tuner out here and he had other things on his plate (owns a music store, wife has been ill for a very long time). Prices have changed as well as tuning technology (ETDs). And yes, word about one's business does travel surprisingly fast in a rural community! =) Michelle Smith -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
