There may be a number of inclusions in a package with an annual report<\/a>. And there are good reasons for them to be, too.<\/p>\n

Reasons to add materials to an annual report<\/h1>\n

On one hand, you may wonder why not just put all the information into the annual report <\/a>itself and just send that. It’s a fair question, and certainly should be asked about each individual item you are considering adding to the package, but it doesn’t exclude everything.<\/p>\n

\"reasons<\/a>

Saving money, ability to add forms and marketing are just some reasons to have annual report inclusions.<\/p><\/div>\n

Some reasons to add other items include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. some things are too hard to incorporate into the annual report, such as long forms you need completed and returned<\/li>\n
  2. some items are worthy of keeping visible which is a bit hard to do if it is in the middle of an annual report – things like\u00a0an event calendar or a reference list or flow chart<\/li>\n
  3. a loose flyer may be looked at, and then read, whereas an annual report may just be filed away (including in the bin!) without actually viewing any internal pages<\/li>\n
  4. if something needs to be sent at a similar time as the annual report, putting them together saves money (in envelopes, postage and handling) and is generally less annoying for recipients, too<\/li>\n
  5. it is a marketing opportunity<\/a> as you are already contacting those people so at no extra cost you can make more of an impact (no extra mailing cost that is!)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Of course, it is very important to not overdo it, too<\/strong>. Nobody wants to open an envelope and have sheafs of paper fall out at them!<\/p>\n

    Any more than three or four inclusions would set off alarm bells for me and I could carefully reassess the value of each inclusion before sending so many items. Too many items in the package distracts, too, so the impact of each would be diminished.<\/p>\n

    How many inclusions would you find too many as the recipient of an annual report? Have you ever received a ridiculous number of items in a package from a business?<\/strong><\/p>\n
