Hello, my YouTube friends.
Today's video is sponsored by Streem Tunes, but I'm gonna tell you
more about that later.
Some of my most popular videos on this channel are about multi
streaming and how to do it.
It's an enticing draw to feel like you can reach multiple audiences at
the same time.
I mean, why not grow on Twitch, Facebook and YouTube all at the same
time?
Right?
Well, I'm gonna get into more detail today about the reasons why maybe
this isn't the best strategy for your content and why for some, maybe
it is.
So, you know what?
Let's get to it.
We've all heard the phrase, jack of all trades master of none.
This is kind of what you're doing as a new streamer, when you decide
to multistream, you're totally banking on the expanded potential reach
of streaming to multiple platforms to help you grow as fast as
possible.
But this is at the expense of not really mastering any one platform.
And I'm just gonna tell you right now, I think it's a huge mistake for
most starting streamers.
Success on one platform is really, really hard.
It takes years of consistent content creation and dedication to
learning things that work and what doesn't to actually find success.
The examples I know of for people succeeding from nothing streaming to
multiple platform just doesn't exist.
And it's for a good reason.
Sure, people who grow an audience on one platform have made a
successful transition to other platforms, but even then, it's not
usually the same content it's other content tailored for the new
platform.
One thing a lot of new streamers struggle with is finding DMCA free
music that won't get them strikes on their channel.
And today's sponsor is a great free option.
Every live stream or video needs some sort of good music, right?
But how do you find good music for free that's not gonna get you
strikes to your live streams or your video?
Today's sponsor Streem Tunes is the answer.
Now Streem Tunes is a hundred percent free platform of high quality
DMCA safe music.
And it's always free.
No strings attached, no bogus signups, nothing just free.
Not only that, but Streem Tunes is available on Spotify, Apple,
Amazon, and most, if not all streaming services, including YouTube
music.
And they have a library of more than 800 songs.
And it's growing by the day.
Another really cool part about Streem Tunes is that every time you
play their songs on any of the services, a donation is made to
MusiCounts and this charity helps to keep music programs going in high
schools all over Canada.
And that's just awesome.
Be sure to check out Streem Tunes for yourself.
There is a link in the description.
And like I said, it's totally one hundred percent free.
Now back to multistream.
As a new streamer, your focus should be on growing an audience on one
platform and mastering the tools put in place to help you get the most
out of whatever that platform might be.
Inevitably, this is going to take you farther, faster than streaming
the same content across multiple services, because each service is
actually different.
They have different rules, procedures, and audiences looking for
completely different things.
So if you are a new streamer, don't be drawn by the allure of growing
all platforms at once.
It's a trap that a lot of people fall prey to, but it's just not
productive.
Now, if you know of an example of a case where a streamer broke
through on multiple platforms at the same time with the same content,
I would really love to hear about it.
So let me know in the comments, but in the meantime, who might
actually benefit from multi streaming?
Companies with a large social media presence already built over years
of advertising and awareness.
In that case, the purpose of streaming is to bring awareness to an
already well known brand and sell products.
For you multi streaming does make sense.
For you the audience is already potentially there.
You're just maximizing your effort and you likely have a team of
capable people managing each platform separately during a broadcast as
well.
If you don't fall into this category, you should pick a platform and
stream there consistently.
Make the effort to improve your craft and learn all you can about
what's working and what's not working on that platform.
This process can take time, but it's really the only way to grow an
audience on any platform.
If you wanna get your live streams noticed on YouTube, you should
definitely check this video out.
