Custom reports

Custom media intelligence, scoped to the question standard reports can't answer.

Our Client Success team scopes your brief and agrees the approach in writing, then a senior analyst builds a report around your brand set, your competitors, and your time frame.

Engagements run two to sixteen weeks, covering the Philippine media landscape in full depth.

No commitment. The first call is a scoping conversation with our Client Success team.

Where standard reporting stops

Some questions don't fit a template.

A standard sector report answers a standing question on a fixed cadence. It's the right tool most of the time, and our Report Library covers it.

For questions that fit standard reporting:

Custom projects exist for the rest

A running spreadsheet of your press mentions and three competitors. A daily report through a launch or crisis window. A segmentation study ahead of a strategy review. These need a stated brief and a report built specifically around it.

Custom reports

Two ways we build custom reports.

Every custom report is scoped to your brief and your own brand set — narrower and more specific than an industry report, and built in the format that fits what you need.

Most common today

Custom Excel reports

Spreadsheet-based reporting built around you and your competitors. Typical asks: a running spreadsheet of press mentions, weekly updates on you and your competitors, or daily reports during a launch or crisis window.

Broader, longer horizon

Custom PowerPoint / HTML reports

Presentation-format reporting for wider-scope questions — quarterly, bi-annual, or annual reviews, brand and market segmentation studies, and other analyses shaped around what you need.

Process

From brief to deliverable, in four stages.

  1. 1

    Brief

    You + Client Success 30 min

    Initial conversation with Client Success to scope the question. No commitment required.

  2. 2

    Scope

    Together 3–5 days

    Written statement of work with timeline, format, and deliverable. Reviewed and signed before work begins.

  3. 3

    Analysis

    MMI 2–16 weeks

    Active analysis phase. A senior analyst builds the report; Client Success keeps you updated throughout. Duration follows the scope.

  4. 4

    Deliverable

    Together 1 day

    Final report delivered in your preferred format via Client Success, with your analyst available directly for questions about the results.

Common Questions

About our industry reports.

What's the difference between a custom report and an industry report? +

Industry reports are broad, sector-wide, and published on a fixed cadence. Custom reports are scoped specifically to your brand set and question, with a timeline and deliverable format built around your brief.

How long does a custom report take? +

Typically 2–16 weeks from signed scope to delivery, depending on the complexity of the question and the depth of analysis required. Straightforward briefs move faster; multi-market or historical work takes longer.

What formats do custom reports come in? +

Delivered as an Excel report or a PowerPoint/HTML report, whichever suits how you'll use the findings. Format is agreed in the written scope before analysis begins.

Do I need an existing MMI subscription to commission a custom report? +

No — custom reports are commissioned independently of a MediaWatch subscription, though existing subscribers get priority scheduling.

How is a custom report priced? +

Pricing is calibrated to the scope — timeline, data depth, and analyst hours required. You'll receive a written quote after the scoping call, before any commitment.
