Technology is quickly evolving and as a result new opportunities for us are available daily. One of the latest is the opportunity to broadcast live video right from your computer. All you need is a webcam or video camera and an internet connection. This concept is known as Ustreaming and is becoming widely popular. Simply signing up via Ustream's website will have you going in no time.
So I invite you to join me and begin your own Ustream show. Ustreaming is not only a great way to get your name out there, but it will also help you to develop a relationship with your audience and give them an opportunity to interact with you through the live chat via the Ustream site. You will be able to develop that "know, like and trust factor" we all strive for in business.
Having an opportunity to connect with your audience live gives you a huge advantage allowing you to answer questions, and meet their needs right on the spot.
Setting up your own show is easy. Simply head over the Ustream site. Click on sign up at the top and fill in the form. You will then need to determine a time to host your show so that you can let your audience know to come watch you live. Send out notice to all your lists and be sure to get the word out as much as possible using Facebook, Twitter and other forms of social media.
Once you're ready, when the time comes for your show simple connect your video camera or webcam, log in to your account on Ustream and start streaming. It really couldn't be easier. But if you get stuck here's the step by step from the Ustream site. And to take your Ustream show to the next level try playing with Camtwist if you're using a MAC or WebCamMax for a PC. With this software you can add that professional touch to your show. You can quickly add scrolling text, logos, picture in picture, pre-recorded video, and several other video effects. So, Are you going to join me in creating your own Ustream show and use this cutting edge technology to YOUR advantage?
My first Ustream show is going to be Thursday April 9th at 8:30 pm CST. Follow me on Twitter to get the latest info on my show. Talk to you soon!
