About Shopping Streams

Live streaming has transformed how direct sellers showcase their products online. It’s like bringing the store right into people’s homes! Sellers can demonstrate products in real-time, answer questions on the spot, and interact with customers just like they would in person. Plus, viewers can see the products in action and get a feel for how they work before making a purchase. Live streaming adds a human touch to online shopping, making it easier for sellers to connect with their audience and sell effectively.

Prep Work: Before Your Meetn®

Step 1: Outline Your Goals

• List the platforms you will livestream to using Meetn®.
• Create a mock agenda with a list of topics or products you want to cover in your Meetn®.
• List any actions you want attendees to take during your event. Do you want them to complete forms? Purchase products? Register for upcoming events? Download resources?

Step 2: Prepare Your Meetn Room

• Upload wallpaper to your room and customize your Exit URL and Top Toolbar Button.
• Will you share live video? Log into your Meetn® room the day before your event to test your lighting and organize your presentation space.
• Retrieve RTMP URL’s and stream keys to program into your Meetn® room ahead of the event.
• Upload any product-related videos or slides you would like to share to your widgets.
• Create interactive call-to-action banners and button bars to share shoppable links with attendees.
• If you have online surveys, consent forms, or registration forms to share with customers, create webpage poppers to let attendees complete the forms live.
• Script private presenter notes to help you remember important points about products, sales, or bonus-qualifying purchases.

Step 3: Invite Your Guests

• Invite guests using your vanity URL (Meetn.com/YourRoom) or by creating a one-time event link.
• Add any special instructions for the event. Will you have a special theme to make your event fun?
• Set expectations! Let your guests know if your Meetn® will be interactive, or include Q&A or meet-and-greets with presenters.
• Lay out the benefits to attending your event in 15 words or less, to create a sense of urgency. For example, “Learn about our limited-time 30% off Mother’s Day bundle!”

Live Event: During Your Meetn®

Hosting a webinar that doubles as a social media shopping stream is all about engagement and conversion. Ensure your audience feels immersed in a dynamic experience by integrating real-time product demos, exclusive deals, and interactive Q&A sessions. Encourage participants to comment, share, and make purchases directly through the platform. This blend of education and shopping creates a seamless, enjoyable experience that keeps attendees hooked and drives sales.

Follow-Up: After Your Meetn®

Looking for ways to maintain engagement after the event and nurture relationships with webinar attendees?

• Send a personalized thank-you email expressing appreciation for their participation.
• Offer a special incentive to encourage them to make a purchase or join your team.
• Follow up periodically with updates on new products, promotions, or upcoming webinars.
• Stay accessible and responsive to their inquiries, building rapport for future collaborations.
