[CAUT] reverse grip tuning pins

[Richard Brekne]

Hi Chris

Sobering thought here when you stop to think of it.  I mean... how many 
pianotechs are at the same time in marketing in one way or another.  I 
know several pianotechs that own and operate stores.   On the one hand 
the pianotech wants to "remain substantial and perservere", but then 
that same person as a salesperson is required to throw out the truth at 
the earliest possible occasion.  Following that line down the road 
abit..... it gets nearly impossible to know when to believe what from 
anyone at all :) 

I'm glad I'm just in all this for the fun of it.  Making money is just a 
convenient side effect !

Cheers

    I think the real issue for us is how to remain substantial and
    perservere.
    Being a piano technician/rebuilder is an interesting vocation, but stuff
    like that can really bring you down. This might be more challenging
    than all
    the design flaws in history.

    Marketing may rule but it is anything but just. To paraphrase, the first
    casualty in sales is the truth.

    In fact I have a plan to turn it all around. Tax advertising. Don't
    give 'em
    a tax break. Make 'em pay to sling that...
