Facebook Live - horror stories and strategy?

4 replies
I came across this Hubspot article last night written by Carly Stec,and was interested to see if anyone else is using a successful Facebook Live campaign?

7 of the Best Facebook Live Videos We've Ever Seen

The article is pretty inspiring for someone like me who's considering making the jump but not quite there yet, so I'd love to hear of anyone's personal experience.

This article starts off by talking about the things that can go wrong (camera fails, performance fails etc) but the engagement is up to ten times higher than normal FB posts which is just huge!

If you're thinking about implementing it I'm sure, like me, this article will inspire you.

What does everyone think? Has anyone got any horror stories?

    Ive been using facebook live and its true, the engagement that its generates its incredible, in some cases it even got more engagement than boosted posts in my accounts!.
    I didn't have any trouble with it so far, only some connections issues in a few opportunities (you need to have a good connection otherwise the video will have a very bad quality)

      Thanks David, wow that's incredible! It's on my list of things to work a strategy around. It's great to hear that it is a successful method before putting the work in Thanks again!

    The whole concept scares me to be honest. Like you said - so may things could go wrong. I haven't seen much difference from my own testing to think it is worth it.
