FAQ’s

1. What’s an EPK or press kit?

A press kit is a pre-packaged set of promotional materials used to promote a person or business entity to the media or other businesses. An EPK is a dynamic, electronic version of the press kit such as a website, a downloadable file or a DVD. They should include a bio, facts, photos, videos and, when appropriate, music. It should tell the world who you are and what you have to offer.  We create EPK’s in the form of a website.

2. Do I have to be working at a professional level to benefit from an EPK?

Absolutely not! Anyone who needs their talent, skills or business to get noticed can benefit from an EPK. If you have no press clippings, an EPK can be used to get some by sending it to media outlets or including the link in a press release. It can also be your electronic calling card given to anyone who desires more information about what you have to offer.

3. Do I need to already have press clippings or news articles to have a press kit?

Quite the contrary. It can actually be a great tool to help you garner press, promotional blurbs or endorsements. Our EPK’s create excitement about what you to have you offer.  Use it for potential clients, buyers, employers, and, of course, media.
