nardoni2002,
Hey REALLY GOOD POINT THERE! When I was in highschool I worked part time for a piano store in or local mall. My job wasn't to sell pianos. My job was to PLAY. My job was to draw in customers by playing the piano, and (some were digital too). Then at times I would also demo models on the floor. For a highschool kid it was a great job. I got to play piano all evening, and make money for it. It brought in a lot of customers too. It's a good idea, but you have to consider today do owners want to invest in this? Is it worth it to them considering all online competition, and some stores afford to hire someone just to play?

hi squeak,i would have thought that shop owners who love music would be players,also demos could be limited to lunch hours when the people are around and weekends when families are out shopping,i know if i passed a shop or forecourt and a good player was demoing a new,any keyboard i would stop as i am sure would many others,and if you was given a demo of how easy it was to play (even newbies who play one finger chords can sound good) sales would pick up,maybe you pro,s who work at gigs in evenings could get some extra work (if you want it) playing in these stores,mike
