Big news, and an explosion or two......

I'm very behind in my blogging lately.....so much has been happening with our business, and personally, with my health......I've had some mystery illness for the past three days that has kept me from doing anything but sitting on the couch.

Karl is currently on the phone for the fourth or fifth time (I'm losing count today) with yet another inquiry.......this weekend has absolutely exploded with potential clients. We did more brochure distribution last week and got two bites from that......and all of a sudden our web campaign is really paying off, and we've gotten about three bites from people doing regular internet searches. I'm actually quite overwhelmed right now......Karl is eerily calm, but then again, he knows the business side of this. Now we're talking about “licensed liability company” and “independent consultants”........lots of things being thrown at me that I know nothing about. Oh, and of course now we're talking about hiring some help (already!). Good thing I have him to guide the way. It's difficult, though......being sick the past three days has also brought on some depression......he's faithfully plugging away and I'm sitting on the couch trying to cool down from a stupid fever. Along with all of the business-related things that need to be done, there are things around the house that need taking care of. I've never been the person to just idly sit by......so darn it, I want to feel better SOON!!

Next week is absolutely PACKED with assignments. Cats, dogs, even a fish. I'm amazed. One of our clients is a lawyer and has only been in business for a year or so. Her husband was telling me that they started the biz and nothing happened for months. All of a sudden they started getting hits, and continued to do so......and now her business is jumping. At the time, I thought......oh, we've got a few months to go......but now I'm eating my words.

All of the books that I purchased when we started talking about this thing are looking very interesting now......so next time I write, hopefully I will have started reading some of those things. Gotta bone up on my business speak. :)

More later.....
