The Apex Way - Webinar Replay
THEY STARTED WHERE YOU ARE
Different backgrounds. Different goals. Different stories. They all started by learning one new skill. See where it took them—and imagine where it could take you.
FROM UNCERTAIN TO $50K IN HIS FIRST YEAR
TJ was living with friends and trying to figure out what came next. He decided to learn a valuable new skill and give piano tuning a real shot. After joining Apex, TJ learned to tune, built his first website, and started finding customers. In his first year, his new piano tuning business generated $50,000. Today, he runs Oak & Ivory Piano Co. and continues growing his business.
Every technician has a first piano, a first customer, and a first year. Your story has to start somewhere too.
A NEW SKILL. A NEW BUSINESS. A NEW FUTURE.
Joe was a young family man working a typical 9-to-5 when he started wondering if there could be something more. He began learning piano technology through Apex and built his business one step at a time. Within two years, Joe was earning $5,000+ per month from tuning and sold more than $25,000 in piano regulation work during May and June 2025 alone.
What started as learning a new skill became a growing business—and a completely new direction for his future.
SHE STARTED AT 20. LOOK WHERE IT TOOK HER.
At just 20 years old, Corinna was waiting tables and searching for a direction that could lead somewhere bigger. She took a chance on learning piano technology, joined Apex, and began building Greenway Piano Tuning from the ground up. She learned the technical skills, created her website, marketed her services, and steadily built her clientele. Today, she tunes for recording studios and professional clients and has even worked as a piano technician for Middle Tennessee State University.
Corinna didn’t start with a piano business or years of experience. She started with a decision to learn—and built a career from there.
HE DIDN'T START OVER. HE ADDED ONE SKILL.
Emerson was already a successful music educator when he saw another possibility: what if he could add professional piano tuning to the skills he already had? Through Apex, he learned the craft and added piano service to his existing business. Today, Emerson routinely generates $600 days tuning pianos, creating another valuable source of income while continuing the work he already loves.
Sometimes building a better future doesn’t mean starting over. It simply means adding the right skill.
"Eric did a fantastic job. He is kind, talented and extremely professional."
