How We Operate

Reporters Across Asia

Regional Network
By maintaining a pool of over 56 freelance writers, researchers and analysts across Asia with specific skill sets, experience and contacts, Esanam is able to allocate projects quickly and efficiently to those best able to handle them.

Desk Research
All projects are backed up with desk research using professional on-line database services such as Dialog, Reuters, and Ovid ABI/Inform. In addition, several local, regional and industry specific resources are also employed.

Presentation
Reports are sent in both platform-independent Adobe Acrobat PDF and ASCIII text formats. Although most of our clients prefer to have their research delivered in point form, coupled with a private briefing, formal reports suitable for presentations can also be generated.

A 50% deposit, based on estimated fees and expenses, is required before project kick-off, with the remainder due via wire transfer not more than 30 days from project completion.
