EPK Essentials Checklist
Everything you need to build a bookable, professional performer profile.
Your Electronic Press Kit (EPK) is one of the most important tools in your creative business, and yet so many performers miss the mark with outdated links, blurry images, or missing key information that bookers actually need (hence the constant back and forth for information).
This free checklist walks you through the must-haves of a high-impact EPK so you can feel confident every time you pitch, apply, or introduce yourself.
Whether you’re a performer, creative freelancer or multi-hyphenate artist (hello there triple plus threats!), this is your go-to guide to make sure your EPK reflects your talent, your professionalism, and the value you bring to every opportunity.
Inside you’ll find:
-
The essential elements every EPK needs
-
Quick fixes that make a big difference
-
Pro tips to help you stand out (even if you’re just getting started)
-
A clear next step to help you pitch and promote yourself with purpose
If you are a performer, freelancer, or creative who are ready to stop second-guessing what to include, and start showing up like the business they are, this freebie is for you!
Why is this checklist is a game-changer for performers?
Helps you show up with clarity and confidence
Guides you to package your talent professionally
Allows you to speak the language of bookers, clients, and producers
Stops you from waiting to be discovered and start positioning yourself for the opportunities you deserve
This is the first step in building a sustainable, profitable, performer-led career that reflects who you are and what you’re worth.
Is this for you?
Most performers are taught how to train, rehearse, and deliver on stage, but no one really teaches you how to sell yourself professionally.
That’s where the checklist comes in.
Whether you’re pitching for gigs, applying to festivals, or trying to stand out in a sea of talent, your EPK is your digital first impression, and it can open (or quietly close) doors before you’ve even had the chance to speak.
This checklist is more than a list of bullet points. It’s a mindset shift.
Because when you start seeing and presenting yourself as a business, everything changes!
