Live Video

LinkedIn live enables creators to stream live videos to the audience from their profile itself. Depending on your level of experience, you can choose to go live in a few ways. One, creators can select from LinkedIns Preferred Partners Restream, Socialive, Stream Yard, Switcher Studio, and Vimeo. Alternatively, you can choose LinkedIns Certified Partners and for those who want to connect directly to an encoder or streaming software like Zoom or WebEx, simplify going live with the platforms custom stream (RTMP) tool.

Once you’ve determined the right tool for you, visit the Resource Hub for all the troubleshooting and technical documentation you might need, including going live with a 3rd party broadcast tool or custom stream.

Live Video Best Practices

As a creator, here are a few best practices that one should follow to stay at the top of the game.

Be prepared –- have a good grasp on the subject matter and the format the broadcast. Be authentic — audiences respond best to genuine, relatable content. Be consistent — set a cadence for when you plan to go live. Consistency helps set the expectation amongst your audience for when they should see new content. Be flexible — if something unplanned happens while live, respond to the situation in real time to uphold the authenticity of your stream. Be engaged — treat your digital audience as if they’re actually in the room with you. Make it a point to monitor the comments and reactions so you can respond when appropriate to help build that deeper connection with your audience.
