On a percentage basis, more entrepreneurs intend to enter piano rental and leasing business ownership through a startup than through a business purchase. Yet piano rental and leasing business startups aren't easy - many fail within the first year.

There are a lot of factors that need to be considered in buying vs. starting a business. While other startups are just getting on their feet, a business purchase dramatically improves the odds that your piano rental and leasing business will be realizing net income from the outset of your ownership engagement.

Explore Franchising Options

If done right, a small business startup takes months and months of preparations just to lay the groundwork for the first day of business.

That makes franchising an attractive alternative to traditional business startups. Our rental franchise directory offers a variety of piano rental and leasing business franchise opportunities, many of which may be the perfect fit for your personal and professional goals.
