Livestreaming and the power of live digital marketing.

Live transmissions or live streaming:

Have increasingly raised the interest and effectiveness of the different social networks. More and more platforms have adapted to this new trend when it comes to providing greater community to the user. Even marketers are beginning to implement live streaming in their next digital marketing  strategies, as they seek to bring and broadcast in real time the user experiences creating a sense of closeness and originality.

But, are we clear about what this term is all about?

Live Streaming refers to online streaming media recorded and transmitted simultaneously in real time. It is often simply referred to as streaming, but this abbreviated term can be ambiguous, as it can refer to any media delivered and played simultaneously without requiring a fully downloaded file. Today, television broadcasts, video games and videos on social networks can be streamed live. Let’s take an example: the difference between an actor reciting a memorized monologue and one who improvises a speech on the spot. In the former, the content is thought out and created beforehand, it is stored and then the actor communicates it to his audience. In the second, the audience receives the content as the actor creates it at the same moment, as happens with live broadcasting. Now it is, isn’t it? As mentioned above, many companies are increasingly using this tool on social platforms in order to increase engagement with the brand, be closer to the target and measure the media impact that a product or service can generate.

How do you make people want to relate to your brand in this way?

Using this tool, you will get your audience to know you and want to be close to you. Personalizing the experience is essential for customers to feel comfortable buying and become repeat customers. Do not forget that live streaming is primarily about creating a connection between the potential customer and the product. For this to be possible, it must be taken into account that the content of the video to be transmitted must be carefully considered and the video must be placed in time and space. Implementing live streaming in digital marketing strategies is more positive than you can imagine. Some studies even claim that 90% of potential customers get more confidence in the information conveyed by a video, when purchasing a product or service. Hence, the reason why live streaming is becoming one of the bases for online sales strategies.

Here are some of the advantages that live streaming can offer in your next digital marketing strategy.

  • Organize Q&A sessions
  • Raise engagement levels and effectiveness
