Today's guest is Eric Johnson. A man whose true calling is with pianos. He tried to leave the piano industry at one time, pursuing a degree in business and a different career. It was when he had a series of interviews with banks, insurance companies, and consulting businesses during his second year of business school that it hit him. He could not pretend that what they were saying was intriguing! The words weren't exciting, and the work wasn't either. Why pretend? So, after a few dull job experiences, he returned to the piano industry. Early on, he joined Jordan Kitts Music and made various connections before landing a job at Yamaha. Due to his professional background, he has developed strong relationships inside the piano industry and a deep understanding of how it works. His career has been long and storied, and he's built an impeccable reputation. He currently tunes and fixes pianos in Charleston, South Carolina, and New York City neighborhoods.Here's a little bit about our guest Eric Johanson:Eric Johnson, RPT is an active PTG member specializing in high-end European Pianos.
