>>How would you word the phone call reminding existing clients that a year
has gone by and it is time to tune the piano.... 

 

Hi, this is Dean May, your piano tuner. I'm just calling to remind you that
it's been a year since your piano was last tuned. I'm going to be in your
neighborhood on Thursday and I was wondering if we could set a time to get
it taken care of?

 

"It does not get played"

 

Well, it's important to still keep them tuned every one to two years even if
they aren't played to keep the pitch up. Otherwise when you do decide to get
it tuned it may need a more expensive pitch raise. Regular tuning helps keep
your piano in shape and protects your investment.

 

"I have no money"

 

If it's a cash flow problem I certainly understand (I get those myself).
Since I'm going to be in your area it would be better for me to do it now if
you want to get it tuned. I'd be happy to leave an invoice and you can pay
me within 30 days. Or I do take credit cards. 

 

 

Dean

Hello,

 

I believe that it is up to the discretion of the tuner to remind the client
of an appointment that is already set up in the books, 6 months or 1 year.

 

The question remains:  How would you word the phone call reminding existing
clients that a year has gone by and it is time to tune the piano.... 

 

Of course they will say, "It does not get played" or "I have no money", what
then do you say?

 

Paul
