ow, directly from any device, any user could stream a video in real-time and interact with their audience.
Post engagements went through the roof. An entire new eco-system for interacting with each other became reality.
In one fell swoop, Facebook rocked the foundations of hangouts, webinars and anything that seemed to be“ permanent” in the marketing landscape.
But …. it was not without issues and limitations.
Most people can only stream from their camera. They can only run live videos from mobile. They haven’ t tapped into the actual marketing potential of this yet.
It’ s a“ nice to have” rather than an essential tool.
They don’ t know that you can actually use FB LIVE as a webinar tool, or as a way to broadcast a remote screen ….. and loads more.
Martin Crumlish and his team have set out to change that today as they draw back the curtain on Facebook Live Videos and give you a bleeding edge app that will put live video right at the beating heart of your online marketing. – It is Vote Stream!!!
So what is Vote Stream?
To put it simply, Vote Stream is the first app of it ' s kind that lets you run live social voting contests, connected to facebooks reaction buttons, inside FB live videos.
These campaigns were previously only possible in 1 very expensive subscription app or via custom coded scripts... but we cracked the code, built a platform and have put this in the cloud, ready for you to use and sell to clients.
Votes and Polls on Facebook aren ' t new...... but doing it in real time in a video is!
What does it do?
You publish a campaign in VoteStream then follow the steps to go live in Facebook. Users visit your video and vote with Facebooks reaction buttons to match up with their choice on screen. This viral action gets blasted out across Facebook to their friends, in newsfeeds and everywhere else this activity shows up. VoteStream captures the action and updates the count live on screen.
