For cancer. i think what the third case demonstrates or illustrates is perhaps more attention should be hiv who need a transplant for cancer or some other disorder. in terms of scaleability, thinking into the future, we know there are many ways to genetically modify cells and specifically to alter the ccr-5 delta 32 gene. so it is possible and actually the nih is sponsoring several research groups to figure out ways to do this. it is possible in the future that trying to identify ways to manipulate these cells could make it more applicable for other individuals. so i think that the finding gives us clues in terms of what is a key component of hiv remission, potentially a likely ....
Into remission. i think it s i was going to say, her cells were replaced by the cells. i think it s fascinating. this disease, as you mentioned, plagues millions upon millions of people, and you say it s not scalable because this treatment, it s rare to find that sort of stem cell that matches with the patient involved, but also it s only right now available for those who are suffering from an incurable form of cancer, so if you can t scale this up, what sort of keys are you looking at in this research to try and figure out how to treat those currently suffering from hiv? yeah, that s a great question. i think in terms of scaleability, you know, obviously stem cell transportation is not feasible and is costly, but it s important to point out a person living at hiv are at high risk ....
And i think there are some people out there who are starting to really deploy that strategy. so two points there, right? one is the idea that things are that we are seeing a bunch of just events in the world that alter the map, which is chris collins and duncan hunter both got indicted. right? that helps. exactly. but the example being again, anything can happen. right? 15, 20 days ago those seats were not on anyone s map as possibilities. and then an indictment happened. right? so things can change very quickly in terms of exogenous events. but this idea about a strategy, the bat that someone like stacey abrams who s running statewide in virginia to be governor. right? she would be the first black woman governor in the nation s history. right? or that andrew gillum is making in florida. that bet is based on both josh s point about doing a little better with everyone but also bringing in marginal voters. and the scaleability there, we should be clear, there s a lot of voters in ....
And what she did is knock on everybody else s door. so you expand the electorate. and i think there are some people out there who are starting to really deploy that strategy. so two points there, right? one is the idea that things are that we are seeing a bunch of just events in the world that alter the map, which is chris collins and duncan hunter both got indicted. right? that helps. exactly. but the example being again, anything can happen. right? 15, 20 days ago those seats were not on anyone s map as possibilities. and then an indictment happened. right? so things can change very quickly in terms of exogenous events. but this idea about a strategy, the bat that someone like stacey abrams who s running statewide in virginia to be governor. right? she would be the first black woman governor in the nation s history. right? or that andrew gillum is making in florida. that bet is based on both josh s point about doing a little better with everyone but also bringing in marginal ....
Very expensive and the margins shrink. so my question is what advice do you have for scaleability with a service based business moving forward? you know, that s a great question. too often the staffing gets ahead of the revenues and then the numbers really don t work. i think it s how you dissect the numbers. here s my solution. take a look at the acquisition cost for every new customer whuch. when you budget it that way, look at it from the stand point and the human resource cost for the first transaction including training. so if every new customer acquisition in human resource training and marketing costs, let s say, $22, and you re targeting 100 new customers, do the math. you know the dollars they have to have in order to budget for the training and the facilities and resources to serve those new customers. now time for the brain trust where we get the real scoop from people in the trenches dealing with business issues. today we have jodie snyder, i ....
