Overview

Research only matters if someone acts on it. This template leads with the answer: an executive summary with headline figures, numbered key findings and a clear recommendation, followed by the evidence behind it.

The evidence pages cover market size and growth, customer insights with survey results and personas, and the competitive landscape with a comparison table and positioning map. A final page sets out actions by impact, effort and timing, plus your method and margin of error.

Useful for

  • Presenting customer survey results to leadership or a client
  • Sizing a new market before a launch or investment
  • A competitor analysis with clear recommendations

What's included

  • Photo cover with title, client and confidentiality line
  • Executive summary with headline figures and numbered findings

Questions

What should go in the executive summary?

The answer first: two or three headline figures, four findings at most, and one recommendation a reader could approve on the spot.

How do I show my margin of error?

State the sample size, how people were recruited and the margin of error at 95% confidence in the method section. The template includes an example.

Are the figures real?

No. All figures, companies and personas are fictional sample content showing how a finished report reads.
