Reach Your IDEAL Audience With Live Video Live Streaming Decoded By Katrina Manning There was a time when live-streaming video wasn’t truly feasible since it did not have mainstream technological support. That is not the case today. Consumer devices and connectivity have continued to improve. As a result, live-streaming is more popular than ever. The quantum leap really took place in 2015 and continues at a frantic pace. As 2016 draws to a close there are 4 major players in the live streaming space (1) Periscope (Soon to be replaced by Twitter Live) (2) Facebook Live (The clear favourite but for how long?) (3) Instagram Live (The new kid on the block) (4) YouTube Live (Sometimes referred to as YouTube Connect) There are of course many others specialising in niche markets but these 4 represent the mainstream, especially as live streaming relates to marketing for the business community. Here are some Twitter Polls about the 4 main choices and how people see them evolving over time. “LIVE STREAMING 101” Which Site Do You Think Will Win This?

FACEBOOK LIVE OR PERISCOPE? 3 Key Factors To Help You Decide ((Guest Blog Post By Ms. Candy Blog)) I’ve been livestreaming for over a year, beginning on Periscope after hearing a few people mention. Like the majority of those who Periscope, my first “scope” (term used for first livestream on Periscope) was with the back camera of my phone showing my surroundings, specifically traffic on the Long Island Expressway in the rain. I quickly got the hang of Periscope which has been through so many updates that as I write this, there’s likely some new feature being worked on that’ll be in the next update pushed out. In a year’s time a lot has changed in the livestreaming landscape. Periscope has listened to its users’ needs and requests and the app has improved greatly. There have also been a number of app based competitors (YouNow, MyWay, MeVee, Busker, Live.Me) who have sprung up while others have gone by the wayside (MeerKat). That said, the closely knit community of Periscope has expanded to other streaming options; the one which has seen the largest use is Facebook Live. I’m often asked what are the differences between Facebook Live and Periscope. While there are quite a few, there are three which I feel are the key differentiating factors in selecting the platform which is right for you. (1) Building Your Following Well the mass majority have been on Facebook for years. How many friends do you have? These friends quickly turn into viewers as you stream directly from your Facebook profile. Viewers will see the...

THE 7 DAY PERISCOPE CHALLENGE A Guest Blog By Paul Thomson A little over a week ago, I decided to start a Periscope challenge in that I would scope every day for 7 consecutive days. With absolutely no experience using Periscope before, I really wanted to try it out! I’d never dabbled in live streaming before last week, and it’s not something I’d ever giving much thought. There was a moment recently that really tweaked my interest, and started the ball rolling. I happened to stumble across a Facebook Live stream from the man himself, Mark Zuckerberg. Watching Mark hanging out on Facebook Live, I was completely fascinated, and that’s exactly what got the ball rolling for me… Now, my Facebook profile is traditionally family & friends, they know me & see me all the time, so I didn’t feel like it would be useful for me to experiment with live streaming on that platform. On the other hand, Twitter is my key to the world. I am very lucky to have so many amazing connections on Twitter, reaching every corner of the globe! I’m truly grateful to have a really great bunch of engaged followers. For this reason, I decided to choose Periscope as my weapon of choice in my crazy social media experiment. You can find my Periscope profile at: www.periscope.tv/ThomsonAus. So, here’s the top 3 weird things I learned throughout the experiment week: (1) It’s OK To Feel Uncomfortable At First I felt so uncomfortable and a little embarrassed at first. I wasn’t quite sure how I was going to make each...
