THE POSSIBLE DREAM
For many people, starting their own money-making busi-
ness seems like a dream that never comes true. They think
it requires special talent and lots of capital and only a
few can succeed. But nothing is further from reality than
this thought. Just look around you. You see lots of self-
made millionaires with no formal education who started with
nothing. One thing they all had in common, however, is a
strong BELIEF. They believed in THEMSELVES and in their
IDEAS. I know you believe in yourself, too. Now you, too,
can start any one of these SEVEN most profitable businesses
revealed in this incredible book. Hundreds of people have
made thousands of dollars through each one of these busi-
nesses.
SEVEN MOST PROFITABLE BUSINESSES
These are the most profitable home based businesses
that can be found in America today. The amazing thing about
every one of these ventures is that it does not require much
capital. Unlike the majority of businesses where you need a
large capital outlay of $10,000 to $15.000 just to get
started, you can start on a shoe string and make a great
deal of money in a short period of time. Another unique
feature is that you can work at home. You don't need an
office, you can start at your kitchen table. And you'll
probably make so much money that you can quit your job if
you want to.
None of these enterprises are get-rich-quick schemes.
They are, however, proven get-rich-slow programs. If you

You may be wondering why I am offering this book to
potential Piano Technician students.

The reason is simple. I want you to succeed. The
information offered is so valuable to anyone entering any
business, that it is impossible to describe. Just browse
through the subjects listed above. It is easy to see how
they relate to the Piano Service Business.
I'm sure you have heard of the philosophy that believes
that the "QUEST" is more rewarding than the capture. I
believe that up to a point, but I also believe Sophie Tucker
summed it up best when she said "I've been Rich and I've
been poor - Rich is better!
I service pianos because I love the work. I love the
"one-on-one" relationship between me and the piano. It is
very relaxing to sit in front of this tremendous instrument
and make it bend to my will. When I am finished, I like to
think that not only do I feel better, it does too.
I also get some of my best ideas while tuning. After
you tune for a while, it becomes so automatic that you can
let your thoughts diversify. You are capable of doing many
things at the same time within your brain. It is almost
like your subconscious is tuning the piano and your con-
scious is prodding you on to other accomplishments.
As a matter of fact, I came up with the idea of putting
my Tuning Course on computer disks while tuning a very infe-
rior spinet piano. In that hour or so I mentally wrote out
the outline and the "Welcome to STRICTLY TUNING" file on
this disk. I guess my mind needed something to keep it
occupied other than the poor instrument that didn't need
much attention.
Another time, while sitting in front of a tremendous 9'
grand, I thought - this is so great it's too bad everyone
can't have this experience. This thought somehow trans-
ferred to the computer sitting on the desk across the room.
Later while packing up my gear, I got into a discussion with
the owner about computers. She said they bought it a few
months ago and didn't know anything about it except how to
turn it on - and then it wouldn't even work.
After I got home, this thought that had originated
while tuning her piano, all of a sudden became a full
fledged business idea. Why not teach beginning computer
owners the basics of how to get going? To make a long story
a little shorter, in about two months this idea resulted in
my teaching a three hour course on Saturdays for 14 house-
wives who wanted to experience the pleasure their husbands
were getting out of sitting in front of the computer. This
was only a two week (6 hour) course, but at $20.00 per
person, I made $280 for six hours work - and it wasn't even
work. I already knew the subject and just had to put to-
gether a logical sequence to present it to them. At the
most, two hours.

The lesson to be learned here is that KNOWLEDGE is
POWER. This is what you can get from this great collection
of ideas presented in this book.
Sure, I want you to become one of my students, and of
course I will derive compensation if you do. But YOU will
gain much more. The combination of my Tuning Course and
this book will open your mind to so many possibilities that
it is just impossible to imagine.
As I said before, I love to service pianos. I gross
over $80,000 yearly on this enterprise alone (I have at
least two apprentices at any one time). However, remember
the "QUEST"? I am always looking for something ELSE - not
to take the place of Piano Servicing, but to experience the
feeling of knowing that I can make as much money as I want
or need AND have so much fun doing it!
If you are not convinced by now, I hear that McDonalds
and Burger King are always hiring for minimum wage.
I have successfully advertised and sold this book in a
hard copy format for $29.95 + shipping/handling. I offer it
on disk to anyone reading this file for that price.
However, If you register as a student in my Piano
Tuning Course, you can have this disk for cost - the price
of the disk, the time to make a copy of it, and compensation
for the lady who will prepare and send it to you.
**** $5.95 ****
Please use the following order form. If you are registering
as a piano student at the same time, disregard the
shipping/handling charge. Just include this charge on your
Piano Course application and send in both order forms.
