Next Steps

âś… Next Steps: BASIC MEDIA KIT Development

1. Clarify What Makes You Instantly Newsworthy

  • Craft a 30-second hook for the top of your media kit:
    → One sentence that answers: “Why does this matter now?”
    → Highlight trend alignment, innovation, cultural relevance, or emotional resonance.
    → Place it front and center in the Quick Reference Snapshot or Brand Story section.

2. Lock In Your Non-Negotiable Brand Messaging

  • Identify your 3–5 core brand messages that must stay consistent across all media coverage.
  • Ensure these are clearly visible in:
    → Boilerplate text
    → Brand Story section
    → Any quote sheets or fact sheets
    → The "Approved Language & Terminology" block

3. Make Standalone Assets Foolproof

  • Audit all visual/logo files and photo assets to ensure:
    → Clear file naming (e.g., “BrandName-Logo-DarkBG.png”)
    → Accompanying caption guides and usage instructions
    → Pre-written ALT text and credit lines
  • Include a “Use With Confidence” cheat sheet explaining how visuals and quotes should be attributed and deployed.

4. Eliminate Media Friction Points

  • Ask: What would slow a journalist down? Then remove it.
    Examples:
    → Too-long bios → Offer 50, 100, and 250-word options
    → Hidden contact info → Place it in multiple sections
    → Missing visuals → Include a ready-to-use image directory
    → Confusing brand story → Add a 2-sentence “About Us” + a 1-liner pitch

5. Tie Every Asset to One Core Goal: Easy, Accurate Coverage

  • For each media kit section, ask: “How does this make a journalist’s job easier?”
    → Your Fact Sheet solves accuracy
    → Your Boilerplate solves messaging consistency
    → Your Quotes solve speed to publish
    → Your Visual Assets solve content formatting
    → Your Story Hooks solve angle generation
