Live video is becoming the future of online video marketing. People are now watching a billion of hours of video daily on platforms like Facebook and Youtube. Live video is becoming more and more popular on these platforms.

Live video allows you to connect with your audience right away, answer their questions, allows them to get to know you and the company on a more personal level. When there are so many businesses out there for your audience to spend their money with, you need to give them a reason to choose you and your business over the others.

Doris Day said “People hear what they see.” She was right. People process images and video faster than text. It has been proven that people retain 80% of what they see and only 20% of what they read.

Now that you have learned how powerful live video can be, like with any form of content marketing, it shouldn’t be a standalone. It works best when it is a part of a broad marketing campaign.
