Annual Report Design

The MARION Annual Report Design Process

At the discovery meeting between you and your MARION Account Manager and other MARION resources, we will discuss and determine your needs, goals, expectations, budget and timetable for production of your annual report. Also, we will discuss any themes you wish to express such as public relations issues, environmentally friendly initiatives, new products or services of importance, etc.
Your MARION Account Manager is your primary point of contact with us, with duties that include:

• Coordinating MARION resources on your behalf
• Meeting your goals and deadlines
• Seeking your approvals for concepts, text, image selection,  design,  production, and changes
• Providing you with updates on production
• Ensuring your satisfaction

If required, our writers will assist with new content development or help with editing your text.

Our conceptual designers will provide you with multiple renderings to capture your themes.

Once you approve the content and theme renderings, our graphic designers will produce your annual report in electronic format. Your company branding requirements and corporate identity elements will be incorporated into the design – logo(s), colors, images, typography, etc.

In designing your annual report, MARION is committed to producing a final product that complements your company's branding and impresses your audience. Whatever the final published format you need, we can provide it - print, web-based (HTML) and/or electronic versions of your annual report.

Your annual report will breathe professionalism and integrity from every aspect of its design.
