It’s now possible for musicians to meet with fans from the comfort of their own homes through live streaming. Live streaming is a great way to interact with your audience in real time, whether you want to hold a Q&A session, perform an event, or show behind-the-scenes footage. Armus Digital can help you use live streaming to connect with and reach your fans. Here’s how to do it.
- Pick the right platform
It’s very important to pick the right site for live streaming. Armus Digital has a huge network of more than 150 distribution platforms. Live streaming isn’t one of them, but they can help you connect your live shows to big platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch. Think about where your audience spends the most time and pick a site that fits with your brand.
- Get the word out about your live streams
Promoting your live streams well is important if you want them to reach a lot of people. Armus Digital has distribution tools that you can use to get the word out about your live events on a number of digital channels. Share countdowns, teasers, and behind-the-scenes videos to get people excited about the event and remind them of it.
- CONNECT with your audience in real time
Live streaming lets you talk to your audience right away. During your stream, interact with people by answering questions, reacting to comments, and taking requests. This real-time chat helps you connect with your friends better and makes them feel like they are important.
- Make sure you have a good streaming experience
Invest in high-quality audio and video equipment to make sure your show looks professional. For a good watching experience, you need clear sound and high-definition video. Before you go live, test your setting to make sure there are no technical problems and that your fans have a smooth experience.
- Give away exclusive content
Offer unique material only during your live streams to give your viewers something extra. This could be sneak peeks of new songs, live acoustic shows, or personal stories about your music. You can get more people to watch your live streams by giving them exclusive material.
- Connect with your music distribution
Use Armus Digital’s music marketing services to get your live stream on a lot of different platforms after the fact. If you play new songs or covers on your stream, you might want to put them out as singles or live versions only through Armus Digital.
- “Analyze and Adapt”
Track how well your live streams are doing with tracking tools. Track measures like how engaged viewers are, how long they watch, and the demographics of your audience to learn what works best. Based on this feedback, change how you live stream in the future to keep getting better and reach more people.
- Make a group of people
People should be encouraged to join your online group and follow you on social media. To build a loyal fan group, you need to keep interacting and engaging with them. Live streams are a great way to bring people together and keep people interested in your music.
