Recommended Livestream Support

Moving forward, we recommend using filming equipment compatible with Facebook’s API/streaming software. This will allow us to seamlessly film and record the livestream as well as to assist in the creation of the aforementioned three-phase strategy.

  • Pre-promotion - ads to run 48 hours before the actual stream
  • Livestream - notifying consumers who engaged with the initial ad that the stream is now LIVE
  • Post-promotion - amplifying the footage, creating exponential opportunities to engage with our audience via ongoing community management

This strategy will allow us to potentially engage participating influencers (i.e., Pedro Barros or Tom Schaar) by fielding questions from the community, as well as provide a better quality experience for all viewers.
