   I have done lives on Instagram before. I do like to do videos and upload to IGTV

     Carrie Severson and they are making it easier now to just add to IGTV which is nice!

   I definitely have more activity on IG but I could def do more live there too

   My challenge is my rambling and funny enough… ending the video. I need to create a sign off or something!

     Joanna Torrens it gets better the more you do it for both of those points.

     Before even starting your video though, think about how it will go before you even hit the go live button.

   I would like to start broadcasting on Instagram and eventually YouTube as well.

   I am already plenty comfortable doing my live videos on fb.

   Once the kids go to bed I’m actually going to be planning content and scheduling times for myself to go live on a regular basis! Excited and nervous at the same time lol

   How do you get those blocks of color and your name to show in your video?

     Yesss!!! That’s what I’m talking about! I love it!

     The branding part is what I consider a more advanced stage of going live and is what I teach clients to do after we work on episode planning & going live from your phone.

     You want to stay focused on building that solid foundation before getting all caught up in the tech part. Then you can use a combination of programs (Canva & StreamYard) to make it “fancier.”

     If you need help with planning your live show (planning before, during and after) let me know.

     We can talk more about how my new coaching program, Coaches Go Live can help!

       Ed Troxell thanks! I tend to get ahead of myself and dive right into something haha

       I definitely will keep that in mind as I think more about lives! I sat down last night and created ‘topics’ for every month until the end of next year to keep myself on track and help create content easier each month!

         Lindsey White and that’s what I’m here for, to help bring you a few steps back (just for a moment) so you can really excel later!

   I went live on Instagram once. I hate having to use my phone for video though it’s so awkward I much prefer Facebook and my chromebook. I am excited about LinkedIn getting the live feature I need to check and see if I have it yet. That’s going to be fun to play with since I have been wanting to expand over there.

     Brittany Gregory that’s great to know about LinkedIn.

       Ed Troxell on October 30, 2020 at 1:52 am

       Brittany Gregory yes, desktop can be easier and LinkedIn had it but stopped allowing people to sign up for it. I have yet to hear of anyone going live over there…it’s been crickets!

    It’s funny how I go live on FB all the time but have never done it on IG 😀

      LeighAnn Heil on October 30, 2020 at 1:09 am

      Linda Lelo Enoh I didn’t know you could. I guess it’s through IGTV?

      • 

        DrLinda Lelo Enoh on October 30, 2020 at 1:34 am

        LeighAnn Heil yes, i believe so. Even pre-recorded videos, I don’t think I’ve ever posted any on IG (PS: my VA takes over my whole IG lol)

          Linda Lelo Enoh

          On this is a great conversation!

          Yes, Facebook is more favorable and more flexible for sure!

            LeighAnn Heil I love when we discover new things!

            Yes, Instagram allows you to go live via the stories option which now they’ll prompt you to save over on IGTV which is nice.

    #replay Thanks for sharing. I’m working on going live on facebook for now and then will work up to Instagram. Have to move from lives in my group to lives on my personal page! (work in progress)
