Annual Reports
Creating an annual report is a big job that feels even bigger when piled on top of all the other tasks you have to accomplish during the same quarter. Too often, annual reports are treated as an afterthought or take up too much valuable work time.
That’s where Mad Hat Maven steps in. We take the giant annual report off your hands so you can focus on the work—instead of reporting on the work.
Types of Annual Reports
We have created annual reports for large corporations, small business, and nonprofits of many sizes. We know that each annual report is different depending on regulatory, shareholder, or funder requirements and have crafted reports that focus on the areas most important to the business, including:
- Financial performance
- Corporate conservation
- Sustainability
- Community impact
- Employee wellbeing
- Customer satisfaction

Who Uses Your Annual Report
Shareholders use annual reports to make investment decisions. Nonprofit funding agencies require annual reports for updates on your yearly progress. Regulatory agencies may require annual reports on your environmental impact and sustainability. Partners and people throughout your business rely on annual reports to understand how pieces of the company are working together, and employees may even look to the annual report to understand how they fit into the larger vision for the company.
Annual reports do more than report on what happened last year. They help people make decisions about what to do next. That means your annual report needs to be useful, easy to read, and accurate.
A Fresh Set of Eyes
Looking at your own data over and over can numb and blind you to what it is really saying. A third party like Mad Hat Maven can interpret your organization’s information and make it accessible to readers who are less familiar with the ins and outs of your business or nonprofit. We will be able to understand your data in useful ways and breathe life into it through smart design techniques.
Your business is probably not centered around report creation. You aren’t a publication expert, but we are! If you want your annual report to look as professional and appealing as possible, Mad Hat Maven will make that happen. We will save you time and effort so you can keep leading the way in your sector or industry.
