Growth & Expansion
There is room in the store to start online sales, but it's not something we ever got into. During covid we also started doing virtual lessons, and there is definitely possibility of big growth in that area.
Support & Training
Willing to stay on and train in the use of the existing (ancient) POS software if interested, and willing to continue doing repairs on commission. The store mostly runs itself since most income is from lessons.
Reason for Selling
Moved out of the area and want to pursue other interests.
