Don&#8217;t forget to also do a few thorough walkthroughs with the camera before filming to catch any imperfections that may show on camera. The result will be a steadier stream and a happier viewer!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do some research beforehand<\/strong> &#8211; View other video tours critically. Emulate the good parts and improve upon other parts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create a script outline &#8211;<\/strong> It need not be the exact wording but outline a script that includes the order of topics you intend to address in your Facebook live stream i.e. the rooms you&#8217;ll be entering and discussing and other information you plan to share.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Promote your live stream<\/strong> &#8211; To ensure you reach your desired audience and encourage engagement from your viewers, send your mailing list an email notifying them of the upcoming event. Posting an open invitation to your other social media channels (ie. Instagram, Twitter, etc.) will help pull your audience from other platforms. You may even want to throw in a few facts or photos about the listing you will be showcasing to build interest!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">During the live stream<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Fully and professionally show off your listing<\/strong> &#8211; We recommend a live stream duration of 15 to 30 minutes. This is the amount of time that is needed to provide some rich detail that will differentiate your property from others.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Provide all relevant information <\/strong>&#8211; In addition to the tour of the space, including storage and outdoor space, we recommended talking about building amenities, the neighbourhood, nearby amenities (grocery stores, cafes etc.), parks, and most importantly, listing details like lease terms, move-in dates, payment options etc. Check out our list of sample questions to help you get started.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Engage the viewer <\/strong>&#8211; We encourage you to interact with your cameraperson and\/or comment moderator to boost engagement. It will feel less scripted and robotic if you are conversing with part of your team.
