Here's how to get your very own annual report to share with all your stakeholders, packed with important data and completely free!
Producing imaginative annual reports for corporate clients can be a valuable income stream for many designers. They can prove to be a challenging exercise in producing an engaging and well-designed document that also has to convey a lot of dry financial information, and consequently there are plenty of ways to create a killer annual report. But have you ever thought of producing your own?
Who wouldn't want their own personal annual report?
Of course you haven't; only some kind of megalomaniac would want to do that, surely? But hang on a second; don't you just hate it when well-meaning idiots ask you how your year was and you're reduced to a sort of muttered, "Er, yeah, fine thanks"? Don't wish you had a handy document you could point people at instead, packed with relevant yet entertaining data summarising your past year, and all presented in a way that's nice and easy on the eye?
Warby Parker's report generator ensures you have all the important info to hand
You're in luck! Socially conscious designer eyewear firm Warby Parker has come up with a nifty Annual Report Generator that you can use to put together your own unique and attractive annual report in just a few minutes.
