Why Products Need Live Streaming

In the increasingly crowded feel of Internet video platforms, YouTube has taken a step ahead its competitors. During the 2017 World Series, YouTube included live streaming of the World Series in a commercial. This live streaming feed, meant to keep viewers tuned in where most change the channel, is a game changer in the live video game. Live streaming products will certainly be a game changer.

As platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram all prioritize live streaming, now is the perfect time for products to join the live streaming game. With QVC, products and live feeds have had a beautiful marriage for over 30 years. However, it’s not until recently that live feeds have had a chance to shine outside of traditional television.

Bridging the Gap

Instead of focusing solely on television or on the web, marketers now have a chance to bridge the gap and incorporate live streaming into both television and web. Marketers can integrate live feeds into their television spots to keep consumers from clicking away from a program.
