[pianotech] Business License....???

[Al Guecia/AlliedPianoCraft]

Here in NC, the city will go through the Yellow Pages and look for ads. If 
you have an ad in the YP, it alerts them to the fact that you are operating 
a business. If you are operating a business of any kind, you must have a 
business license.
