Why 79% of Brands Fail at Influencer Partnerships (And How Your Press Kit Fixes It)
The Brutal Reality: Why Generic Press Kits Destroy ROI
Influencer marketing isn’t dying—but generic outreach is. Brands using one-size-fits-all press kits face catastrophic results in India’s hyper-diverse market:
Metric | Non-Localized Press Kit | Geo-Targeted Press Kit |
---|---|---|
Influencer Reply Rate | 12% | 63% |
Campaign ROI (India) | ₹1.8 : ₹1 | **₹9.3 : ₹1** |
Content Authenticity Score | 31/100 | 89/100 |
Long-Term Partnerships | 1 in 10 | 7 in 10 |

Mumbai-based skincare brand GlowHer learned this brutally. Their English-only press kit sent to Tamil micro-influencers resulted in:
- 🚫 92% ignored outreach emails
- 🚫 A viral meme mocking their Holi campaign visuals (“Fairness serums for colorful festivals?”)
- 🚫 ₹17 lakh wasted in agency fees
The Core Failure: Press kits treating India as one market implode at 3 critical layers:
- Linguistic disconnect (Hindi/English kits failing in Tamil Nadu/Punjab/Kerala)
- Cultural blindness (festival/taboo mismatches)
- Value obscurity (no localized social proof)
