A live video doesn’t have to be daunting or scary. Furthermore, going live is critical to growing your audience. People want to be engaged with you, particularly when you are taking the time and effort to go live. If you are raw and true, your followers will know. Personally, I rarely script out what I am going to say on a live video, as doing so takes away from my authenticity. Accordingly, I may leave out a few things I wanted to cover, but at the end of the day, my followers know that when I am doing a live feed, they are getting the authentically raw version. Not one that is watered down for their approval.
