What does it mean? • 10 – 3 – 1 is a formula based on 25 years of data that qualifies activity into results • There was a time lag – the “1” new client came over the course of three years • 60% the first year • 30% the second year • 10% in the third year • Granum’s research showed that no matter your tenure in the business, if you did certain activity you could predict your results
Why didit work? • Granum was a scientist of our business – studying the numbers with academic rigor. His findings are supported by 25 years of data. • He integrated his findings into a system (his is called The One Card System) – taking the science and making it applicable to daily business practices • He provided representatives with insights into their practice, encouraged them to track their activity and study their numbers
Others who agree • “It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future.” ― Yogi Berra • “The scientist is not a person who gives the right answers, he's one who asks the right questions.” ― Claude Lévi-Strauss • “Science is a way of thinking much more than it is a body of knowledge.” ― Carl Sagan
