Tony, two things are causing me concern and delaying things. One, I'm still taking care of the guy who lost a foot. He has no one else...no money, insurance or family. He doesn't speak English and needs to go to daily appointments to a clinic and the hospital.
2nd-both the Atlanta connection and the Boston connection involve a sales organization in Atlanta that doesn't pay it's bills.
The manufacturers in Italy and Spain are great, but they pay the agency and the agency doesn't pay me. They're 6 months behind on some really big dollars. I'm "on strike" until the bills are paid. I've been carrying these guys for a few years and that is going to stop now.
I'll probably have to arrange direct payment from the manufacturer, but the agent is taking credit for the work and doesn't want the clients knowing he/they are just selling the final product based on our work.
Believe it or not, this is a common problem with sales rep organizations.
I'll let you know when I work things out. In the meantime, Ranolfo needs daily attention, so I couldn't get away, regardless.
