It is too competitive to get into this market!!!

Jerry wrote a great article last year and he has reposted on his blog. This is an excerpt from that post and a link to Jerrys blog:

Does this sound familiar? Does this come into your head or out of your mouth when you look to get into a market?

Today is Father’s Day, and I was relaxing in the sun having a visit with my dad. The visit was a little one-sided since he past away in 2003. As it often does, inspiration comes at odd times. Let me share with you a story that I was just reminded of . . .

In the early 80s, when I was in high school, a man moved into the house across the street. We didn’t have many move-ins as our neighborhood was very stable. My father made me go with him to welcome our new neighbor to the area. Hey, I was a teenager, I didn’t want to go, but I was fortunate, as it was an introduction that I would long remember. In the conversation, my father asked our new neighbor what he did for a living.

“I sell pianos and I am opening a piano store in the area,” he replied.

This interested my father. Even though he was a school teacher, he loved discussing business. It was a passion of his.

“We just bought a piano,” my father followed. “There are three piano stores in the area already and I visited each one. Each store was empty when I went in and business seemed to be very poor. In fact, we got a great deal on our piano because of it.”
