Krystal from The Proffitt Podcast asks, "To incorporate video, should I livestream my podcast recordings or use pre-recorded video instead?"

TL;DR
Adding a video strategy to your podcast is a great way to potentially double the amount of content you produce every week with just a little bit of planning and a couple of pieces of software.

So in this episode, we'll cover the difference between live streaming and pre-recorded video and talk about several software options for live streaming to social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn.

Live stream if...

• You don't want to edit the video
• You're okay with a less-polished episode
• You want the flexibility of incorporating listener comments and questions

Pre-record if...

• You want a more polished video
• You want to edit the video before you release it

The two live-streaming software solutions we recommend:

1. Zoom.us
2. Streamyard
