Follow these handy tips for Instagram Live to curate a thoughtful session for your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-1-nbsp-set-the-purpose-of-the-live-session\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Set_the_purpose_of_the_Live_session\"><\/span><strong>1.&nbsp;Set the purpose of the Live session<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">The general rule of thumb is to plan a Live session that lasts at least 10 minutes. This is enough time for your followers to start getting to&nbsp;know your brand. They can comment if they want, you can answer their questions, and hopefully, everyone gets something valuable out of the session. Outline the type of content you want to create and the goals you want to achieve during the Live. For example, you can do a product launch announcement, a Q&amp;A with the audience, a service guide, a guest interview, behind-the-scenes, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/simplified.com\/blog\/marketing\/best-time-to-post-on-instagram\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A Content Creator&#8217;s Ultimate Guide: What Is The Best Time To Post On Instagram In 2023?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-2-nbsp-test-your-devices\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Test_your_devices\"><\/span><strong>2.&nbsp;Test your devices<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Technical errors can give followers a bad impression of your brand. Make sure that your voice is clearly audible on your device. You can use a mic for enhanced clarity; just make sure your surroundings aren\u2019t too noisy. Light and camera settings are also important so that your audience can see what you expect them to see. You don\u2019t need to prepare too much but try to maintain a professional look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-3-nbsp-prepare-a-loose-script\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Prepare_a_loose_script\"><\/span><strong>3.&nbsp;Prepare a loose script<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Even though Instagram Live is meant to be spontaneous, a little bit of practice can\u2019t hurt. Take 20 or 30 minutes and plan a loose script that you can come back to if you ever feel at a loss for words. Awkward on-screen silences aren\u2019t enjoyable to watch and won\u2019t reflect well on you or your brand. After all, you\u2019re the one who should know it best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-4-nbsp-promote-your-live-session\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Promote_your_Live_session\"><\/span><strong>4.&nbsp;Promote your Live session<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Once you\u2019ve planned the purpose and content of your Instagram Live, take the time to promote it on all platforms.

You may have your own purpose and goal, but you need to make sure your followers feel valued. Therefore, keep a check on who is watching and entering the session. You may even find people that you\u2019ve already interacted with, so greet them before you go on with the main agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/giphy.com\/embed\/iGfkcRNtl8tm8\" width=\"480\" height=\"276\" frameBorder=\"0\" class=\"giphy-embed\" allowFullScreen><\/iframe><p><a href=\"https:\/\/giphy.com\/gifs\/doctor-who-hello-waving-iGfkcRNtl8tm8\">via GIPHY<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-3-nbsp-engage-with-ig-tools-and-filters\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Engage_with_IG_tools_and_filters\"><\/span><strong>3.&nbsp;Engage with IG tools and filters<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">There are plenty of Instagram tools to enhance engagement. You can use the question sticker on your stories to get questions and then answer them one by one in the live session. Use face filters for some humor if it fits the context. Your audience should feel comfortable interacting openly with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-4-nbsp-add-a-friend\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Add_a_friend\"><\/span><strong>4.&nbsp;Add a friend<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">If you want to conduct a live session but don\u2019t have much content, why not call a friend online? This can be spontaneous or planned out, but make sure that you stay relevant to your audience. You can ask another professional working in the same business to join. Or, how about a loyal customer who is comfortable joining in and sharing their experience?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-5-silencing-the-trolls\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Silencing_the_Trolls\"><\/span><strong>5.

These troublemakers deliberately provoke arguments and disruptions. But fear not! You have the power to shut them down. Simply click the &#8216;X&#8217; next to their username and mute their comments. Remember, engaging with your viewers in real-time is the essence of Instagram Live, so don&#8217;t let a few trolls spoil the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\" wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"h-6-spice-up-your-stream\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Spice_Up_Your_Stream\"><\/span><strong>6.

Encourage your followers to slide into your DMs instead. This way, you can focus on delivering an amazing Live experience without getting overwhelmed.
