The example above is only an example.  There are many styles and types.  Each one is creative and shows the skills of the creator.  But no matter how it is styled, the style MUST be secondary to getting the message across immediately—you are available!

 

Title - Be sure to pick a title for your deliverable that's memorable and that you're prepared to use consistently.


Overview - "What problem does this solve for reporters?”

Beauty Shots - Include some activity pictures.   If appropriate, include pictures of yourself too.


Who Benefits - This section describes exactly who can use the your material and how. 

What to Expect - This reinforces that working with you isn't an aimless exploration in chatter but has a clear end goal.

What Next - Now that you've got them interested, give them somewhere to go to learn more. The goal is to get reporters and others to look at past just your list of deliverables and begin dreaming about how they can be applied to their own projects.
