December Challenge: Build Your Year-End Brand Performance Report 📊

 

Every PR and comms team needs a clear, data-driven wrap-up at the end of the year. This month, you’ll build yours in Mira Studio or the Meltwater Agent for Microsoft using a guided sequence. By the end, you’ll have a polished Year-End Brand Performance Summary Report ready to use with your team.
 

⭐️ If you don’t have Mira Studios, you can sign up for a free 90 day trial, complete this form.


 

Step 1: Set Up Your Project in Mira Studio

 

Start by creating a new project for your company or brand in Mira Studio or in the Meltwater Agent for Microsoft. This ensures the report pulls from the right context.

Add the following:

  • Company, Brand or Topic: Add your brand name
  • Key Competitors: Add the competitors you benchmark against
  • Key People: Include leaders you track, such as your CEO
  • (optional) Saved Searches: Add any saved searches you use for reporting throughout the year to keep your report consistent


 

Step 2: Run the Prompt Sequence

 

Before entering any prompts, make sure you:

  1. Select the project you just created (top left)
  2. Switch to Canvas Mode (top right)

This guided sequence helps Mira build your full report section by section.
 

Prompt Sequence:


In the Mira Studio’s prompt box copy and paste each of the prompts one at a time, waiting for content to load before adding the next prompt.

 

Prompt 1: Executive Overview

I'm producing a Year-End Summary report with the title: Year-End Review: Key Highlights and Performance Insights for 2025. Create an Executive Overview: Summary of my brand’s overall performance in North America across news and social media in 2025. Key highlights and lowlights, including major achievements, challenges, and milestones.

(Wait for content to load.)
 

Prompt 2: Share of Voice

Give me: Overview of Share of Voice (SOV) in earned media against key competitors using engagement as the measure. Provide a comparison of SOV metrics between January 2025 and now in a table.

(Wait for content to load.)
 

Prompt 3: Key Narratives

Key Narratives: Highlight any prominent changes in narratives about my brand over the course of the year. Give me a section on positive narratives and one on negative.

(Wait for content to load.)
 

Prompt 4: Coverage Sentiment

Coverage Sentiment: Analysis of sentiment trends across the year, highlighting key positive and negative drivers. Show comparison of sentiment breakdown (positive, neutral, negative) between January 2025 and now in a table.

(Wait for content to load.)
 

Prompt 5: Key Stakeholders

Key Stakeholders: Coverage analysis of our key stakeholders this year, highlighting any major stories with citations for each stakeholder or report no coverage if that’s the case.

(Wait for content to load.)
 

Prompt 6: Positive Moment

Provide an “and finally” section highlighting one key positive moment for our brand over the course of the year with any relevant citations.

(Wait for content to load.)
 

Prompt 7: Build the Report

Take the output of these six prompts and create a complete year-end summary report.



Step 3: Comment on your experience

 

  1. Follow the steps above to create your year-end report.

  2. Comment on this post with what you learned or any surprises.

  3. You’ll receive your December AI Prompt Challenge Community Badge at month-end. (Challenge ends on December 31, 2025)

Thanks for this step-by-step tool! Appreciated the continuing chance to practice setting up a project, editing it, etc. I found the Executive Overview prompt very insightful. And each results from the prompts were thorough. As far as additional prompts, I tried one that provided a visualize of engagement metrics and trending healthcare topics.

This was a cool experience! Overall, I think the final report was good considering I didn’t change a single prompt that was listed in the directions. However, there were a few lapses that I had to take care of with additional prompts (picking up stories from a company that has our same name although I tried to fix that at the beginning; not recognizing my CEOs name in stories that mention him; misunderstanding product “ updates” vs “launches”, etc.). But like I said, this was really good overall and saved me hours and hours of work. It’s a great building block for me to finalize a Year-In-Review report for my executive team.

Hi Dan, did you try adding your CEO’s name and title to the ‘Key People’ section in the Project you use for this prompt?

Just wanted to say thanks for all the comments on this help guide, it’s been really useful to think about how we structure this particular sequence of prompts but also for how we approach prompt sequences in general. Appreciate it.

This is a great step by step explainer. I have not used Mira Projects and this has enormous potential for year-end reporting on multiple topics. Out of curiosity, once you build these report compilations, can you ask Mira to compare them? ​@kelly.bebenek do you happen to know the answer or can you ask? This is all going to be very helpful for projects and reports that I frequently run and could use prompts to generate insights that are relevant to me, my team or senior leadership. The SOV charts were a good visual that was very easy to generate.

@Will Swope I am glad this will be useful. So are you thinking you support 2 brands under 1 company and you want to compare the projects?  Or what you are thinking of comparing? I am trying to understand the use case, are you thinking about Mira creating reports for you (outside of the above) and you want Mira to provide a comparison on it?

The SOV charts show a comparison with your brand compared to the competitors listed in the project.

@kelly.bebenek Great questions, and I can see potential in a few different ways. It would likely be similar themes, brands or campaigns from the states that I support. 


I run similar campaign reports for beef councils in different states. I could see ways a Mira Project like this could be built to run results for each campaign, then on a national basis, Mira might be able to gain insights into what worked (or didn’t work) in certain states compared to others and help from a national perspective to offer guidance for next year’s campaign.

On the issues side, it might want to see a report for an issue in a certain state, then through some of the prompt from the challenge, compare and contrast those insights to help guide the crisis management plan from the national level.

I like your idea on looking at it as one report and listing each of these under the company or brand in one project. I have quite a few year end reports coming up and I might run a few tests under one project and see what Mira shows me.

I find using the brand report under Analyze much easier to use but I do appreciate the ability to compile several prompts into a report.
