In the abstract class we should declare the state. We will set it in the init, and give an example for how it should be set by each function in the template class.

We should update the documentation with what each state should mean and how it will be used.

The refactor which will move functionality out of the services and into pure python. We will want to make a standard pattern for interfacing with these clients and handling the state.
