Media kit examples: what strong creator kits have in common

Looking at media kit examples is the fastest way to fix your own. Below are six recurring patterns, what each gets right, and a short FAQ built from the questions creators ask most often in threads on Reddit communities like r/InfluencerMarketing, r/NewTubers and r/socialmedia.

Six patterns worth copying

1. The one-screen kit — portrait, three numbers, rates, contact. Works because a brand manager decides in 20 seconds.
2. The proof-first kit — a campaign result headlines the page. Strongest for performance-minded brands.
3. The niche kit — "vegan baking, Toronto" beats "lifestyle creator" every time.
4. The geography kit — a country percentage chart, which matters when a brand only ships to two markets.
5. The bundle kit — packages instead of à-la-carte line items, which raises average deal size.
6. The living kit — a link with a "last updated" date, so numbers are trusted.

Questions creators actually ask

Do I need a media kit under 10K followers? Yes. At that size you are selling engagement and niche fit, so lead with engagement rate and audience quality, not totals.

Should I put my rates in the kit? Put them in. The common Reddit complaint — endless back-and-forth ending in a lowball — usually starts with a kit that hid pricing. See rate card pricing.

Is a PDF fine? It works, it just ages. Read media kit template PDF for when to use each.

Can I inflate numbers slightly? No. Brands pull third-party data and screenshots. One inflated figure ends the deal and the relationship.

What if I have no past partnerships? Use an unpaid case study: a product you bought, content you made, results you got. Format it like these case studies.
