How to Use Facebook Live Video to Stand Out in a Crowded Marketplace

by Leave a Comment

Most people do not realize the value and how powerful Facebook Live video is. Live streaming allows you to take people on a journey through visual storytelling. You have heard the saying a picture is worth a thousand words; a video is worth a million. More and more people are watching videos online to be inspired, motivated, educated, and entertained. If your audience is on Facebook and you are not using Facebook Live Video, you could be missing a prime opportunity to showcase or business or organization.

There are several advantages to using Facebook Live Video:

  • No editing is required.
  • No need to make it fancy with graphics and words moving across the screen.
  • You are in real-time.
  • Live Customer service opportunity.
  • Does not require a ton of technical knowledge – press Go Live and you are on your way!
  • You do not need to download a specific app to use it.
  • It allows you to engage with others and lets you see how many people join the Facebook Live video and what point of the video they have made a comment.
  • You can respond to greet people and respond to comments as they come up on the video stream.
  • You can share the link, embed the video, or use it on other social media platforms.

Some people may find the inability to edit their video uncomfortable but viewers are looking for a true connection. They are looking for transparency, authenticity, and a story they can relate to. Viewers enjoy interacting, hearing their name mentioned, and feeling a part of the conversation.

Writing articles and blogging are great ways to get your voice heard online and boost your credibility. Add some powerful images and you grab your reader’s attention. Add a video and they get drawn into the conversation. Videos bring ideas into motion.

The use of Facebook Live Video will only continue to grow in numbers and you do not want to lose the opportunity to showcase your work and the solutions you offer. Wondering how to use it? A couple tips before you get started: choose a location with good lighting and free from a lot of background noise and ensure you have a strong Wi-Fi connection. Hold your camera at eye level so we can see your face. If you give your viewers a heads-up as to when you will be shooting your Facebook Live Videos, you will give more people an opportunity to plan to join the conversation.

When you leverage your Facebook Live Videos, you will be able to:

  • Share tips and strategies to brainstorm, problem solve, or streamline systems, processes, or approaches to new or challenging situations.
  • Take your viewers on a behind the scenes look at an event, conference, business, or organization.
  • Turn your article topics into a conversation and do a live Question and Answer period online.
  • Share your opinion and or experience.
  • Showcase events and conference live so people feel like they are part of the action.
  • Demonstrate or share your products and services.
  • Use Facebook Live Video to gain media coverage.
  • Interview people live and in the moment so people can get to know people in real-time.
  • Share facts and figures.
  • Capture a testimonial on the spot.
  • Embed your video on other platforms or even on your website.
  • Run a live online course.
  • Promote your upcoming event.

The list could go on and on. Pick one or two ways you would like to leverage social media so you can stand out in the marketplace. Once you master those, try a couple more ways. Measure the amount of interaction and voila! You will see how many more people will get involved in the conversation. Discover which topics get the most traction and expand on those thoughts in future videos. Don’t be afraid to have a call to action in your videos; people often want to know what to do next or how to connect with you. Let the conversation continue.

Are You Missing the “Blog” of Opportunity? 5 Reasons Why You Should Be Blogging

by 1 Comment

Wow! I have had great feedback about what the cost of “not knowing” something has impacted many people’s businesses and lives. I have learned that it is up to me to gain new knowledge, search for information, find the right team members, and get involved in knowing where my money is going. Yes, I have made mistakes and learned quickly to get up to speed so it never happens again. Let’s make sure you are not missing the boat, pardon me, the “blog” of opportunity.

Are you blogging right now? May I ask why not? Some of the reasons I have heard all range from:”I do not having enough time”, “I am not even on Facebook yet how can I blog?” , or “What should I blog about? First of all, a blog is short for “weblog”. According to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, the definition is “a blog is a Web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, and comments”. Some people refer to it as a online diary.

What Does a Blog DO?

In business, as an entrepreneur, writer, or an author, a blog is a powerful tool for connecting with people, building relationships, sharing great content that people can learn from or relate to, and a way for people to get to know you. A blog can help build that know, like, and trust factor. It is not a sales venue to “Say here buy my product!”  However, it can be a way to review a product or service. I have been to event where people have come up to me and said I am your Facebook friend and I read your blog – “Thanks for the great tips and inspiration. Your messages  always seem to come at the right time.” 

What Can I Blog About?

People all have their own preference as to what they would talk about in person. Remember this is the internet age, you want to post information that you are willing to have out in cyberspace forever and you would even show or say to your mother – otherwise it does not belong out there. Blogs do not have to be long but it can vary in length depending on the depth of information. People want to learn, relate to, and be entertained. Think about what you look up on the internet – you may be looking for ways to build your business and get more clients all the way to stay productive while working at home or parenting the terrible twos. Information is everywhere.

Topics You Can Blog About:

  1. Tips and Techniques that can improve our lives or business=- related to your business. They are the “how to” articles with instructions and words of wisdom. Each tip or technique can be its own blog post.
  2. Lessons learned and reflected on “what not to do” and “what you should be doing”
  3. Introduce a new product or service – without saying BUY THIS! Tell us more about the product or services and what it can do for us
  4. Share content from an event.  Blog about a seminar or conference you went to. Share a picture. 2-3 messages you may have learned. 
  5. Write a book or article review. I know you are committed to life long learning – share what you liked about your latest read and how it has impacted your perspective.
  6. Promote a colleague, a coach, or a member of your team and share what you have learned from them.
  7. The best of the best…create a listing of your top articles, books, or resources.

These topics are just of few to get you started but there are many! WordPress and Blogger are great places to start blogging. Do your research and learn more about blogging and how it can work for you. You can get started in no time with little to no expense!!!

Did you know your the content from your blog posts can be used to create an e-books, books, future articles, or even a product?

Start thinking big to achieve big ladies!
