I'm scouring through local listings of occupied homes in Woodstock, GA to target my local area. The gas prices are getting to me so I'm trying to limit my 'commute' if I can. =) Anyway, I've only gone through about 15 occupied listings so far and have come across about 5 homes with pianos.

A wise entrepreneur would probably begin the process by researching what hisher &39;competitors&39; are charging for their services. Do they need to charge the same No and I hope that they wouldn&39;t.
