How to Make an Influencer Media Kit (+ the One-Click Alternative Brands Trust More)

"Can you send your media kit?" If that message makes you panic-open Canva, this guide is for you. A media kit is your one-page business case: who you are, who's listening, what you charge. Here's what goes in it — and the one-click alternative that's quietly replacing PDFs.

The six sections every media kit needs

• Who you are — name, photo, city, niche, one-line positioning ("Affordable fashion for young working women").
• Your numbers — followers, average engagement rate, average views per Reel. Only include numbers you can prove.
• Your audience — age split, gender split, top cities, language. This matters more to brands than your follower count.
• Past collaborations — 3–4 best pieces of branded work with one result each ("42K views, 380 saves").
• Your packages and rates — the same clear packages as your gigs; see our rate guide for benchmarks.
• Contact + profile link — one email, one link. Not six social handles.

Design rules (keep it boring, in a good way)

One page (two max), your face on it, big readable numbers, brand-neutral colors. Brands read fifty of these — clarity beats creativity. Name the file properly: AishaVerma-MediaKit-2026.pdf, not final_final_v3.pdf.

The problem with every PDF media kit

Three things, and every brand manager knows them:

• It's stale the day you export it — your numbers change weekly; your PDF doesn't.
• It's unverifiable — any number in a PDF is just… typed. Brands discount claimed stats by default.
• It's one-way — a brand who likes it still has to find you, message you, and negotiate somewhere else.

The one-click alternative: a living media kit

Your InfluencerMetric profile solves all three problems at once. Connect Instagram or YouTube and your stats are pulled live from the platform and marked verified — a brand doesn't have to take your word for anything. The Media Kit button on your profile generates a shareable kit from that live data. And when a brand likes what they see, they don't need to hunt for your email: they message you in private chat, request a quote, and book you with escrow-protected payment — all from the same page.

FAQ

Do I still need a PDF media kit at all?

It's useful for agencies and email-first brands. Make one, keep it to one page, and update it monthly — but lead with your live profile link, and let the PDF be the backup.

What if my numbers are small?

Small verified numbers beat big claimed ones. Lead with engagement rate and audience fit — read how small creators win deals.

Should rates go in the media kit?
