How to Write a Business Research Report

Research reports are commonly used in the business world, and provide a comprehensive and smart way for information to be shared with different departments, and for the research to be fully understood. While they are not hard to write, they do follow a specific style, and it is essential to write in this style.

Instructions

    • 1

      Read about the topic. Ensure you are aware of every aspect of the research, and are comfortable explaining it and writing about it.

    • 2

      Prepare an introduction to clarify the purpose of the research, and the expected outcome. Ensure the introduction fully explains the idea behind the topic, and the goals of the initial plan.

    • 3

      Create a draft of all the information you wish to include. Make certain you reference any quotes, and use tables and graphs to show relevant research.

    • 4

      Split your draft into five sections. These five sections should be personalized to your topic. Each section can contain numerous sub-sections, if necessary.

    • 5

      Write the final copy. Include a title page and a references page.

    • 6

      Check your tense. The report needs to be written in third person, and in past tense. For example, state, "The researcher carried out" rather than "I carried out."

    • 7

      Edit your formatting. Write in a standard font, such as Times New Roman, in 10-point size or larger. Double-spaced your text. Number each page.

    • 8

      Proof-read the project for any errors. Everything you write must be justified, either by your own research or a reference.
