I am a piano tuner with a large business and planning to open a music store before the year is out. I am a christian and work on conducting a business that would please the Lord.

Business restructure
Staying in business is all about being responsive to market conditions. Decisions are rarely just business decisions, at least for the christian. My relationship with Christ is first and so decisions about business and family sometimes have to be adjusted after doing what the Lord would have me do.
With this qualification I then have to consider what my families needs are and how I can meet those needs and still stay in business. that has been very difficult of late as both the tuning and retail business in south Florida have diminished to almost being non-existent. I have been using independent contractors in Chicago to cover the 5000 customers there but I am going to try to eliminate that expense by making more frequent trips to Chicago and covering the work myself.I will lose some work that can't wait until my next trip but I think the bottom line will improve this way. Chicago is a great market and I will probably move back there someday so I want to preserve that customer base.
