Key to Success Discovered in 1906?
In 1906, an Italian economist discovered that 80% of the land in Italy was owned by 20% of the people. As he started looking around, he also noticed that 20% of the pea pods contained 80% of the peas. His name was Vilfredo Pareto. And, over and over he discovered the same thing.
His discovery became known as the Pareto Principle.
What he discovered was a constant law:
- 20% of the input creates 80% of the outcome.
- 20% of the workers create 80% of the results.
- 20% of customers create 80% of revenue.
The Pareto Principle shows that 80% of results come from 20% of the effort.
The key is to know how to maximize the 20% that is most important. Which is exactly the reason we’ve asked some of the most successful people in our industry to present at this year’s International Franchise Brokers Conference and Expo, November 10 – 12, 2014, Orlando, FL.
We want to make sure you have the resources you need to focus on what matters most in your business. Because of this, we’ve designed this year’s conference to help our brokers overcome some of the biggest challenges they face. In every business, there are simple things you can change that make a huge difference to the bottom line.
In the CFB courses, you can learn the secrets top performers use, have the opportunity to ask your questions, and come away with practical, useful information you can apply right away! You hold the power to help people achieve their dreams and make a big impact on their lives and the lives of their families. And you’ll do so faster and easier by following in the footsteps of those who have achieved great success.
