State of Confusion

As I thought I would, the content I was working on for the insurance company in Wisconsin was done before noon. Then, I was hit with a new one: A husband and wife team, both separate clients with the same business doing two different things.

At first, I wasn't sure what to make of it. Are they both MLMs? Why two different client numbers? What in the world?

So, I started looking at both client numbers. Apparently, one was clearly an MLM, but the other? A franchise consulting company. I wasn't quite sure what that meant, specifically (a company that deals with ALL franchises, or just networking franchises?), so I had to ask around.

Which, of course, caused confusion elsewhere. Until someone said, "No, it's a regular business, but his wife does the MLM under the same umbrella."

Once that was cleared up, I got started. Then I got hit with something else instead: A file that got lost in the shuffle some time ago, apparently. Not sure of the details, but it needs to be done.

Thankfully, I'd barely gotten the information I needed about the previous client and had only gotten 2 pages in before starting this one.

Oy...what a mind-bending day...
