Press Kits

Promotional Press Kits

A promotional press kit, also referred to as a media kit or promo package, is a collection of informational marketing materials that are used to help increase a company's exposure and to market its services or products to potential consumers. A press kit can make a good impression of one's business upon its recipient. Plain packages of collateral can be boring and can be more difficult for one to sort through. Promotional press kits provide a means to organize marketing information in a comprehensive and interesting manner, and can also help one to distinguish his/ her company from the masses.

Customizing Your Promotional Press Kit

One way to make sure your business is distinctly recognized is to create an overall concept for your promotional press kit. Press kits are available in a wide variety of colors and customization options for imprinting your company name and logo. You should correlate the design and looks of your press kit with that of your company's corporate style, logo, and individual pieces of collateral. For example, you should coordinate the colors used in your imprinting decorations with that of your company's already established logo. Additionally, if your company wants to project a fun laid back style of business, you can choose to use multiple, bright colors and designs to decorate the kit. If your company would like to maintain a more sophisticated, professional look, you can choose to keep your design simpler by using a debossing decoration technique. Whichever way you choose to customize your promotional press kit, it will show a level of professionalism and forethought that will separate your company in a positive light.

Promotional Press Kit Components

In addition to customizing the way you design the outside of your promotional press kit, you also have several options to customize them to display your company's marketing materials. Promotional press kits themselves are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes, but you can also tailor them with CD hubs, business card slits and other additional accessories and inserts. They also have a variety of options for closures including Velcro closures, snap closures, elastic bands, tuck tabs, and latches. Additionally, you can choose press kits that have attached carrying handles for ease of transport, or attached folding easels, allowing the kit to stand up as a display, useful when giving presentations about one's business and its services or products.

Promotional Press Kit Usage

Press kits can be used for a variety of specific reasons that all require in depth marketing packages. A company may want to put together press kits to market new product launches. A press kit is also a useful item to have available at large events like industry trade shows, allowing companies to convey a large amount of information in a compact and comprehensive package. They can be delivered to companies for recipients to browse through collateral on their own. Or they can be used by members of the kit's company to supplement a presentation. With so many possible uses, a promotional press kit is an excellent marketing product for any company.
