Why do F1 teams spend hundreds of millions for 0.1 seconds?



Hello, this is Ren.


Just 0.1 seconds... that hardly makes a difference, right?
That's what you'd think, isn't it?


0.1 seconds is just an instant,
and in daily life, almost no one cares about it.


But the world of F1 is different.


To make the machine just a little faster, they study airflow, remake parts, and repeat tests over and over.


And to shave off that tiny difference, astronomical amounts of money—tens or hundreds of millions—can be involved.


Why?


Simply because 0.1 seconds changes the outcome.



Here lies a major hint that separates those who continue to grow steadily in business from those who remain stagnant forever.


The best dedicate their lives to 0.1-second improvements



F1 is a world where the slightly faster machine and driver win.


Suppose there is a difference of 0.1 seconds per lap.


Just 0.1 seconds.


It feels insignificant, right? But if you run 60 laps, that's a 6-second difference by simple calculation.


This is not small.


Moreover, in an actual race, that small difference determines whether you can overtake the car in front, take the position ahead in qualifying, or start from a better spot.


In other words, 0.1 seconds is not just 0.1 seconds.


It is the "initial difference" that changes the results that follow.


This is the same for business.


For example, suppose 1,000 people see your sales letter and 10 of them make a purchase.


The conversion rate is 1%.


Then, you improve the sales letter text or emails, and the conversion rate goes from 1% to 1.2%.


That's only 0.2%.


But the number of buyers becomes 12 instead of 10.
If the product price is 100,000 yen, sales go from 1 million yen to 1.2 million yen.


Just by improving it, you gain 200,000 yen.


If you repeat this every month, that's 2.4 million yen per year.


What happens if you continue to improve your ads, LINE, newsletters, products, and letters by 0.1%, 1%, and 5%?


Of course, sales will grow like a snowball.


In other words,
rather than looking for a "magic bullet to change your life,"
the person who "improves the existing system one step at a time"
is stronger in the end.



It's plain.


It's not flashy.


But it wins.



Those who aim for a one-shot reversal are actually constantly returning to the starting point



This way of thinking also applies to Toyota's "Kaizen" (continuous improvement).


Make it 1% better than yesterday.
Reduce one wasteful task.
Shorten work time by 30 seconds.
Eliminate one cause of defects.


Looking at it just once, it's extremely plain.


No one brags about it on social media.


"I shortened my work time by 30 seconds today!"


Even if you post something like this, it probably won't go viral.
No one is interested, right?


But what happens if 100 people shorten that time by 30 seconds every day?


30 seconds x 100 people = 3,000 seconds. That's 50 minutes.
If there are 250 business days a year, that's 12,500 minutes.


That becomes about 208 hours.


Never underestimate small improvements.



However, business beginners tend to do the exact opposite.


"What's the shortest way to earn 1 million yen?"
"What's the hot social media platform now? What about AI?"
"How can I earn money easily with AI?"
"What's a genre where anyone can sell easily?"


I understand the feeling.


I used to be completely on that side too.

I'd buy a course, try it for a week, and get no results. Then I'd buy the next course or look for new methods on YouTube. Then I'd switch again.


Before I knew it, half a year had passed, but
nothing had been built up.


The person thinks they are moving forward.


But in reality, they are returning to the starting point every time.


In soccer, it's like being 20 meters from the goal and thinking, "This path looks faster," so you return to your own side every time.


Of course you won't win.


But people who get results are different.


Change one character in an email subject line.
Change the first line of your profile.
Reread the first message after someone registers for LINE.
Cut 100 characters from the product description.
Add one more newsletter.
Change the position of the CTA in one place.


They continue to do these things calmly.


It's not a flashy revolution.


It's daily, plain fine-tuning.


But that difference becomes an incredible distance after 6 months, 1 year, or 3 years.



Before looking for new weapons, do "1% better than yesterday"


When my business wasn't going well, I thought I just lacked know-how.


That's why I was always looking for new information.


But at some point, I started looking not at "what new thing should I start?" but at "how many percent can I improve the existing system?"


For example, newsletters.


If the open rate is bad, change the title.
If it's not clicked, change the order of the text.


If the product doesn't sell, don't suddenly remake the product itself, but first change the beginning of the sales page.


Watch the reaction.


And fix it again.


This is the repetition.


Don't try to get 100 points from the start.


First, put it out at 60 points.
Next, 65 points.
70 points.
75 points.


Improve it like this.


Since changing to this way of thinking,
business has become quite easy.


First put it out, look at the numbers, and fix it.
And put it out again.


That's all.


You don't need any "Great Reform!"


It can be the first line of your profile.
It can be the title of a newsletter.
It can be 100 characters of a sales letter.
It can be a social media thumbnail.


Make the current system 1% better than yesterday.


That's all you need.


Please continue that for 30 days.


If you do one a day, you can make 30 improvements.
If it's a year, that's 365 improvements.


The person who improved 365 times,
and the person who spent 365 days looking for "any good know-how?"


One year later, who do you think is stronger?


It's overwhelmingly the former, right?


Just as top F1 teams are serious about shaving off 0.1 seconds, we must not underestimate 1%.


Business is not a one-shot reversal game.


It is a game where the person who accumulates improvements wins in the end.


So, grow even just 1% more than your yesterday's self.


By the time you notice, there will be no rivals around you. You will have grown more than you can imagine now, and the world you see will have changed.


And what is important for repeating this improvement is
the concept of systemization.



If you do customer acquisition, education, and sales manually from scratch every time, you will be exhausted before you can improve.


That is why you first turn the sales flow into a system.
Once a system is in place, you can improve it one place at a time while watching the numbers.


Just like an F1 team shaving off 0.1 seconds.


In my newsletter, I share the thinking behind turning this "acquisition → education → sales" into a system, allowing you to generate sales without being chased by daily social media posts and sales, while including concrete examples.


If you want to win with a system, please register.


There are also limited bonuses, so please do!
