The Power of Periscope: How Do You Use It?

by Jul 21, 2015

Periscope has been around since March, yet many social media enthusiasts are just recently playing around with it and testing it – both personally and for their clients.

 

If you’re new to Periscope, it’s a Twitter-based video streaming platform. You can watch everything from your friend’s live-streaming roadtrip from Miami up to New York or even live streaming a conference – like Florida Social Con for instance!

 

Personally, I have just started using it to document my kitchen redesign – that we’re doing ourselves with the help of my experienced father. HOWEVER, I see a ton of possibilities to build brand awareness for Mugsy PR clients using this live video streaming app.

 

The possibilities are endless:

Live Q&A video sessions

How-To videos for your customers

Loyalty building videos offering specials

Behind the scenes videos showcasing  specific product/talent features

The important thing to remember is that this is a social media platform. Be social. Utilize your best practices when it comes to your other social media platforms. Get creative. Pay attention and acknowledge your followers.
