How to prepare for a facebook live.
Hi. I'm Lucy Griffiths and I get it. It's
nerve-racking, it's really scary to do your first Facebook live and be like
oh my god, I'm on camera. But you know what, it gets easier. There are tips and
there are strategies to help you to get visible, put yourself out there, talk on
camera, connect with your audience, do what you want to do, share your message
with the world, impact millions and make a million along the way. There are so
many things that you can do when you talk on camera, but I get it. It's scary.
So, how does it all begin? Well, the first thing to say is it's all about
confidence, and I have a free guide below with confidence hacks that will really
help. So, I'd love you to click on the link and get to know that. If you like
this video, I would love you to subscribe. So, please click the subscribe button
below or above to click on the bell and get notifications of when I go live.
If it's your first time, make sure that even though you're thinking, oh my goodness
the people from school are gonna see me, you know, they haven't seen me in 20
years and now they're gonna see me on Facebook going live or oh no all those
people from work. I don't want them to see it. All of those things go through
our head on a constant basis. So, you want to really get familiar with what you're
going to talk about and also the technology. Okay, so the first thing to
think about is being confident in yourself. So, practice in front of the
mirror. Write out what you're gonna say. Practice in front of the mirror and
really, you know, so you can sort of talk about what you're going to talk about
and feel confident. Then when you're ready to go live, sit down, get yourself
in position, breathe, shoulders back, be confident.
Smile. Look into the lens and then enjoy it. There's lots of tech stuff that goes
with it as well and I've got a video on all the tech stuff, so you can kind of
overcome those hurdles. But this video is really about the confidence of going
live. So, believe in yourself. Know that you can do it and if you really don't
like it, press delete. No one is gonna see, no one
is gonna mind. But most of the time, people love it when you make a mistake.
You do a blooper. People love you being you and being real. So, it's okay to worry
and make a mistake and do all those things but just breathe and smile. So
many videos, I see people showing up and they do their hair as soon as they go live.
It's not a mirror. Look in the mirror before you go live. Then when you're
there, focus on us. Talk to us, smile at us. Rather than being like, which button to
press. Smile, look calm. Look like you know what you're gonna do and then talk live.
But if you want to figure out the tech stuff, I've got a video just for that and
there's a secret way for you to actually go live no one thing. So you can figure
out the tech stuff, watch that video so you can kind of figure out that bit but
this is the confidence video. You can do it. I know you can do it and I can't wait
to see your videos. Share them below. Would love to know more about you and of
course, click on the button below to subscribe. Thank you so much for watching.
Bye bye bye!
