I’m with you EVERY step of the way.
Learn to tune like a master
Imagine tuning pianos with the precision and speed of a seasoned professional. In this course, I’ll teach you the Apex Way, the electronic tuning device method and techniques I personally use to tune for world-class studios, venues, and artists. You’ll gain invaluable knowledge about tuning and tension, achieving results that other courses simply can’t match. Stop wasting time on outdated methods—learn the Apex Way and tune pianos with confidence. Receive your Apex Piano Tuning Certificate when you complete this course. Enroll for Module 1 today for $2,700 or three payments of $900.
Become an expert repair technician
Professional piano work means handling repairs as well as tuning. That’s why this course goes beyond the basics to teach you essential repair techniques. From addressing sticking keys to replacing broken hammers, I’ll guide you through real-world repairs on spinets, uprights, and grand pianos of varying value. You’ll gain the versatility to confidently service any piano you encounter.
Launch and boost your business
When I launched my piano business, I experienced explosive growth, doubling my client base every year for the first five years. Today, my company spans two states, employing multiple technicians and serving over 5,000 clients, including top-tier studios and artists. In this Business Boost Bootcamp and Course, I’ll equip you with the same strategies I used to achieve this success. If your business isn’t generating $80,000+ per year, you’re missing out. I’ll show you how to replicate my exact business model, pricing, and upselling techniques to dramatically increase your income and dominate your local market.
Learn how to regulation like a master
Regulation is a highly specialized skill that separates experienced technicians from the rest. While many shy away from it, I’ll teach you the Apex Way to confidently regulate pianos in the field. You’ll gain expert-level knowledge applicable to spinets, uprights, and grands, opening doors to advanced career opportunities and the chance to work with discerning clients who appreciate true craftsmanship.
Unlock the art of voicing
Early in my career, piano voicing was a daunting mystery—the secrets were closely guarded, and guidance was scarce. To demystify this critical skill, I sought out industry veteran Jack Hamilton (former president of the Master Piano Technicians of America) to learn his revolutionary voicing method. Together, we created the Rapid Voicer manual and video series, where I reveal the exact techniques you need to precisely voice any piano, eliminating the fear and unlocking a new level of control
APEX MASTER TECH MENTORSHIP AND LAUNCH
Imagine having a dedicated mentor and a supportive community to guide you every step of the way. The Apex Mentorship Program offers just that: one-on-one mentorship from me, full access to all courses, and the Apex business framework to launch and grow your business. You’ll also gain entry into the exclusive Apex VIP Community, where you can connect with successful alumni and receive ongoing support. I’m committed to helping you become the highest-paid and highest-rated technician in your market.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT THE APEX MENTORSHIP:
The Apex VIP Mentorship is available by application only. You’re welcome to take any Apex course or start with the 90-Day Piano Tuning Bootcamp without joining the mentorship. However, if you want to work directly with Eric Roberts as your Apex Mentor and receive personalized guidance as you learn the trade and launch your own successful piano service business, you’ll need to apply first. Once your application is submitted, Eric will personally reach out to you to discuss the program, answer your questions, and determine if the mentorship is the right fit.
The mentorship includes courses, masterclasses, webinars, and a supportive online community. You will take the courses online at your own pace and participate in the weekly conversation on the social connection. You will also have access to special livestream webinars and the APTN Resource Hub where you can download technical papers, read articles, watch past livestreams, and get my special marketing materials to help you start your own business.
There are two tiers of Apex certification.
The first tier focuses on piano tuning and repair. Upon successful completion of this phase, you will be awarded the designation of Apex Certified Piano Technician (CPT).
The second tier is a master-level certification, which is typically attainable within two to three years from the start of the program. To qualify, you must fulfill specified program requirements, collaborate with your mentor over an extended period, and successfully pass a series of examinations. Upon meeting these criteria, you will receive the esteemed Apex Certified Master Piano Technician (CMPT) designation.
The timeline will vary for each individual; however, many of my students begin earning income within six months of starting the program and continue to grow their earnings exponentially in the years that follow.
In the Apex Mentorship Program, you will learn how to tune pianos to a truly professional standard using an ETD (professional electronic tuning device). You will also gain hands-on skills in field repairs, regulation, and voicing, ensuring you can confidently service a wide range of instruments.
Beyond technical training, the program guides you through building your own piano service business from the ground up. You will learn how to create and launch a professional website, run effective Google and Facebook advertising campaigns, attract new clients, and integrate an online booking system that supports rapid and sustainable growth using my proven marketing techniques.
Throughout the process, I will help you avoid common pitfalls and stay focused on what works. My goal is to help you quickly achieve your objectives, become a successful piano tuner, and earn an excellent income doing work you truly enjoy.
No, the price of the mentorship does not include tools. But don’t worry, to start off you only need a simple tuning kit you can get for around $100. Plus, you will get a wholesale account with the largest piano supply company in the USA and a full Apex list of suggested tools to purchase as you need them along the way. (You don’t have to spend a lot of money of tools to start this business!)
No, you do not need to find a local mentor. You can learn everything you need to start and run your own successful piano tuning business right here in the Apex mentorship. Sure, it helps to have some great friends and connections in the business, and I’ll help you find those, but you do not need a local mentor to be successful and complete the certification process… I am your mentor!
Great question! You will need help along the way and I am here here you! You simply open a chat in the social connection or send me a direct text. You are never alone in the Apex mentorship. You can also talk to others in the program in the social app which is a huge help on the journey.
