“Just being active on social media platforms, you can get the word out.”
In the early social media days, using video was new and experimental. Today, video is literally EVERYWHERE. Research says that 80% of people prefer watching video rather than reading a blog. Recently, there’s been an added twist with using videos in businesses and that is live video streaming. Approximately 82% of people said that they would rather consume content via live video than social posts.
Live video streaming is a rapidly growing marketing channel for brands and nonprofits — think Facebook Live, Periscope, YouTube, Instagram and LinkedIn. With these platforms, you should be able to create a more engaging and, ultimately, more profitable brand experience for your audience.
