A competent presentation allows the user to get answers to the questions: what kind of company is it, what can it offer, is cooperation advisable? The media kit should not turn into a means of self-admiration or be loaded with an excessive amount of unnecessary information. Otherwise, there is a high probability that the presentation will not achieve its goal.

Let's look at some standard mistakes that are made when developing a media kit.

Data deficiency

The text should contain fusion database not only abstract arguments and a story about achievements and difficulties overcome, but also specific figures. Otherwise, the presentation may make an impression, but not provide rational arguments in favor of the decision to cooperate.

Complex design

Minimalism in details will help judge the professionalism of the media kit creation. It is advisable to use light colors in the design and not clutter the sheet with unnecessary graphics. The logo should be placed neatly, and not fill the entire background of the page.

Mistakes when compiling a media kit

Excess of calls

A quality presentation becomes an effective sales tool without creating a feeling of intrusion and coercion. Avoid excessive use of phrases like “Call”, “Write to us”, “Order”, etc. Place them in the block with a description of services or contacts.

Mention of other companies

Quite often, presentations use quantitative indicators in comparison with similar data from competitors. In the user, such a presentation can create a feeling of negativity towards the mentioned brands.
