Why Auto-Updating Wins
Static PDF media kits are outdated the moment you send them. Auto-updating kits always show your current stats, which means brands see your real numbers without you manually updating screenshots. This also lets you capitalize on viral moments instantly.

What Brands Actually Look At
Brands care more about engagement rate than follower count. Lead your media kit with your engagement metrics, saves, and shares. Past collaboration results with specific numbers (views, saves, click-through rates) are more persuasive than a list of brand logos.
Pitch Analytics Log
Track who views your media kit, how long they spend, and which sections get the most attention.
| Brand Pitched | Date Sent | Kit Views | Time Spent | Most Viewed Section | Follow-Up? | Outcome | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
The Follow-Up Trigger
If a brand views your media kit a second time within 48 hours, that is a strong buying signal. Follow up immediately with a personalized message referencing what you can offer. Multiple views without a response often means they are comparing you to other creators.
