You said you believed each retirement will generate 4 initial training cycles.
Um... no I didn't. Find the quote. I will happily wait for you to find anywhere where I said that. Hint: You crossed the streams. It was sailingfun that said that.. not me. I HAVE NO NUMBERS.
That is 4000 training cycles in 12 months.
If you want to take it back and say there is no training waterfall, that is fine with me.
Nothing to take back homie.
But keep in mind Tsquare that our AEs over the past few years with no retirements and no growth generated hundreds of initial training events. And we are exposing the tip of the iceberg and the sims are full.
As I said I believe each retirement will generate an average of 6 and as many as 10.
Then again maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.
Time will tell.
Everything else is still conjecture on your part. You might be right, you might be wrong. I STILL.. for the third time now.. am asking for empirical data instead of your opinion. This is a golden opportunity for you. I truly have no opinion on this, and if you can convince me, you might have another ally. If not... well... It's up to you.
