Periscope Marketing for Success
Leveraging Live Video for Real-Time Engagement
Periscope Marketing for Success is a focused guide designed to help you understand how live video streaming can support your marketing efforts in a responsible, value-driven way. While platforms evolve over time, the principles behind real-time video engagement remain highly relevant across multiple social and streaming tools.
The book begins with an introduction to Periscope and the fundamentals of live video streaming. You will learn what makes live content different from pre-recorded media, and why immediacy, interaction, and authenticity can play an important role in how audiences respond.
From there, the guide explores the marketing potential of streaming. It explains how live video can be used to demonstrate products, share expertise, host Q&A sessions, or provide behind-the-scenes access, all while maintaining realistic expectations and respect for viewer time and attention.
You will then dive into the practical side of using Periscope, including how the platform works, key features, and basic setup considerations. A dedicated chapter walks you through designing a “value-delivering” marketing strategy, focusing on helpful, relevant content instead of aggressive promotion.
The book also covers how to create more engaging videos—from planning topics and structuring broadcasts to improving presentation, audio, and visuals. You will find tips for increasing viewers and engagement through scheduling, clear titles, calls-to-action, and interaction with live comments.
Finally, the guide looks at other platforms that support live video, helping you adapt the same principles to additional tools as your audience and strategy evolve.
Inside this book, you will learn how to:
- Understand the basics of Periscope and live video streaming
- Evaluate when and how live video can support your marketing goals
- Navigate Periscope’s core features and broadcasting options
