The split between the agencies that plan to "Sell to Employees/Family" and those

that are "Uncertain at This Point" reflects the difficulty many agencies have achiev-

wait too long to begin their planning process and find themselves questioning

whether or not they will be able to accomplish their goal in the available time frame.
