• One of the global goals of franchising
Poverty
• Relative poverty

variables
What is the wealth index?
• Figure out the how important different assets and household characteristics are to wealth• Country specific• Uses Principal Components Analysis
• Give each person a score based on their assets and household characteristics
1 million people
Place the population in order of wealth using the wealth index
Lowest wealth index score
Highest wealth index score
Quintile 1(200,000 people)
Quintile 2(200,000 people)
Quintile 3(200,000 people)
Quintile 4(200,000 people)
Quintile 5(200,000 people)
Split into five equal ‘quintiles’
i
ii
iii Use a client survey to put clients into quintiles
Toolkit
• i and ii have been done already for countries with a recent DHS
• You just have to do iii • Conduct a client survey• 10 steps using pre-prepared tools
• Go to presentationofdata.com
Toolkit characteristics
• Rigorous• Covers complete process• User friendly• High level expertise not
needed
Complexity in the back, simplicity in the front
What does it do?
Guides the user through the 10 steps to a successful client survey, from planning to interpretation of results which answers the question:
• Which wealth quintiles do your clients fall into?
What is in the toolkit?
• Step by Step guide to survey process (written and video tutorials)
• Questionnaires• Template workplan• Sampling tool• Data collection team training template• Data entry tool• Data analysis tool
Step 1
Define what you want to measure and why
• Work with decision makers
• How will results be used?• Who do you need to know about?• What do you need to know about them?
Step 2
Recruit the survey team• Characteristics of each role
Step 3Plan the survey • Create a workplan
Step 4
Sampling• Use the Excel tool provided
Series of simple questions • Decide whether to conduct interviews in
homes or at facilities• Additional detail on methods, sub-groups,
what precision means
Step 5Get relevant permissions• Ethics, government etc
Step 6Train data collection team • Modify training curriculum• Interactive sessions• How select respondents• How to conduct interviews• Supervised practice
Step 8Data entry• Modify preprepared tool• Clean, error free data
Step 9Data analysis• Choose from EpiInfo, SPSS,
STATA• Use preprepared syntax

Group discussion
Would this information would be useful to your programme?What decisions would you take if your franchise had a low percentage of clients in the bottom two quintiles?What challenges would arise from trying to implement these 10 steps?
Quiz
• Why are there two surveys involved in the process?
• What would it mean if 21% of clients were in the bottom two quintiles?
• In what circumstances can you change the wealth index questions?
Toolkit version 2
More countries Fewer questions? Same questions everywhere? Even simpler data collection, entry
and analysis using an app?
