Field notes
The admission rate held
Last week we said we would widen the test to see whether Shannon's admission rate really stays under a single level. It held. With more prospects, and across every account, she stayed under it.
The window
Last week's level was 12%. Between 26th October and 2nd November, across all accounts, 17,996 prospects were found and Shannon admitted 1,859. That is an admission rate of 10.3%. Shannon Desktop · 26 Oct 2026 Shannon Desktop · 2 Nov 2026

Three things we read
- The rate held. Last week it was 12.0% on 12,771 prospects. This week it is 10.3% on a larger pool. Roughly one prospect in ten gets through. Last week's two readings still stand: Shannon is admitting only the people she thinks will be sincere ideal clients, or there is something we are missing. The test continues.
- The approval backlog has cleared. Last week operators had approved 47% of the opening messages, with a large share still waiting. This week they approved 1,689 of 1,717. While a message waits for review, nothing after it can move.
- We crossed the scheduling barrier, only just. 1 meeting is scheduled, from 18 replies. No meeting has been completed yet.

What we are not saying
These are counts from one week, read by hand from the dashboard. They are reported, not targeted, and they prove nothing yet. The reply, conversation and meeting counts are small, so one more moves them. We have left out the dashboard columns whose meaning we have not pinned down.
What we'll report next Monday
The same table for the next full week, and the first completed meetings if any are held.
