Let's get started.

Hello busy people.
Welcome to Five Minutes Social Media,

or having to post every single day.

My name is Jerry Potter,
yes, it rhymes with the boy wizard.
And in this video, I'm gonna show you how to add a logo
to your Facebook Live.
Now, this is something you've probably
seen other businesses doing, they've got the logo,
maybe they've got title graphics on the screen.
Maybe even a crawl along the bottom,
like the international news channels have on TV,
and you're thinking, man, I want that, how do I get that?
The good news is, it's way easier than it used to be.
You can totally do this,
and there are a few different programs
that make it super easy.
So I'm gonna quickly show you each one,
so that then you can choose the best one for you.
Now I've used all three of these in my business,
and so I'm gonna show you BeLive, Restream and Streamyard.
So all three of these tools make it super easy
to stream to Facebook Live with no technology necessary.
Let me show you how to add the logo in each first,
and then I can share some of the other cool things
about each so you can decide which one is best for you.
So if we go in BeLive TV, we're here under branding,
and then you can see right here,
you would do add logo and then you could upload your logo
from your computer.
Now ideally, you have a version of your logo
with a transparent background.
So when it shows up over your video,
it doesn't have a clunky box around it,
unless your logo has a box built into it.
So, you upload it and it shows up in the corner right here,
one of the things I like as well,
is you can upload more than one logo.
So I've got this one here and you can see
the Five Minutes Social Media
is white on light gray basically,
I can just choose the other one hit apply
and it switches it right over.
Maybe you have more than one company or brand.
You could stream both of those
and then just switch logos for whichever one
you happen to be using at the time.
So it's called branding in BeLive,
inside Restream they call it graphics.
So here under the graphics tab,
you can see the logos are here,
you would just click upload, add your logo,
and so if I wanna show my logo, I just tap that,
and there it is.
And I can do the same thing here with the black lettering
and the one with the white lettering, if I wanted.
And then in Streamyard, you'll find the option under brand,
and again, it's just as simple as hitting upload logo
and there will be, you click on it
and it shows up in your broadcast.
Now the logo is a great place to start,
but let's look at some of the other graphics
you can do with these programs.
In BeLive TV, you can see they've got the crawler
at the bottom, so you can have something crawling along
during your broadcast.
You can have a banner on the screen,
which looks like this here.
BeLive TV also offers an agenda,
so if you're doing a presentation,
I'll do this on Facebook Live sometimes,
you can see I'll hit start and it will introduce each topic,
and then I just hit next,
and it goes through and displays them
with a nice transition graphic
as I go through the different things
that I'm going to talk about.
And then they also have this live sales as they call it,
and with this,
if you have something that you're going to plug,
again it doesn't have to be something you're selling,
like for me, it's usually a free download.
Now once you set it up, it sits down here in your tray,
which is where things go before you go live,
then I can hit show in stream.
And it not only put it on the screen,
but I've attached to link to this,
'cause this is a slide for my FMSM Pro,
group coaching program,
and so it'll put a link through the page
in the comments of your Facebook Live
as soon as you click that, all with one click.
So that's definitely something, that's not only a graphic,
but it has an additional cool bonus too inside BeLive.
Restream doesn't have that specifically,
but I do like their title banners,
'cause you can have a whole bunch here ready to go,
and then you can click them super easily
as you are going through your broadcast
and they'll show up and then if you wanna hide them,
you just click that same one again.
And then under graphics, they've got the logo,
like we talked about, they've got an overlay,
so you could create an overlay.
This is one from Restream obviously,
in a program like Canva or Adobe Spark or Snappa,
and then have that show up in here,
and then in Streamyard
you can see they've got the banner right here,
you've actually got a couple of choices.
So that's the default and then the minimal,
you can also change the brand color.
So if you're a brand is a certain color,
you can add that there
to make it look a little bit different.
You can have an overlay, just like we saw in Restream,
and then Streamyard also has the ability to have a ticker
along the bottom just like we saw in BeLive.
All three of them make it easy
for you to have a guest to interview,
or multiple guests from another location.
They all allow you to stream to more than one place
at the same time.
And when people do comment
on your live broadcast on Facebook,
it allows you to click on the comment
and show it on the screen,
which adds a nice visual element of interaction
to all of your Facebook Lives.
Now is that this recording both BeLive and Streamyard,
let you pre-schedule a Facebook Live
so that it'll show up on Facebook
and you can promote it ahead of time to your email list
or wherever else you have people following you.
Restream doesn't appear to offer that option
as of this recording,
but I imagine it's something they'll probably add
in the future.
All three tools do have a free plan,
so you can try it and test it out,
but all three of them do require paid plan
in order to add your logo to the Facebook Live.
Now you can get a discount if you pay for a planet annually,
but I like to show the monthly price
'cause that's how most of us make our decisions.
So for BeLive TV,
it is 29.99 a month to have the paid plan
with all the logos and everything else.
Restream is a little bit less at $19 a month,
again in dollars.
And then Streamyard is $25 a month.
So which one is likely to become your favorite?
Let me know in the comments,
and I've also got my direct link to all three of them
in the description of this video,
so you can find them and click them right there
and get started.
All right, thank you so much for watching.
