EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Provide an executive summary (overview of your brand-audit research) here. Your executive summary should be a brief
“snapshot” of your findings, indicating the brand-audit analysis you performed, the conclusions you’ve drawn, and
recommended course of action for your brand.

An executive summary provides an overview of a larger document or research and is usually the first thing your reader will
see... Executive summaries will analyze a problem, drawn conclusions, and recommend a course of action for your brand in
a comprehensive, but brief, synopsis.
Good questions to answer for your brand-audit Executive Summary are:
● What was the goal of this brand-audit report?
● What is the goal of this brand-audit report?

Note: Executive Summaries are typically 1-4 pages.
