Not every result is good news. In Yemen, 2019 to 2021, across 483 participants, average revenue fell 30% and profit fell 37%. We report it separately from our headline averages and publish it in full: bringptp.com/sanaa/

Across 974 mini-MBA participants with digitised results in Pakistan and Egypt, 2012 to 2022, average revenue grew about 18% and profit about 85% over the coaching period. Low starting profits inflate the profit figure. Cohort by cohort: bringptp.com/impact/

The result got smaller every time the method got better. One intern team measured comfort across community lines twice, tightened its method, then tested how much rested on one participant. It reported that check beside its headline number. bringptp.com/grassroots-inte…
