I can only go live on my like page and not on my personal page or in my groups, any thoughts?
It isn’t my phone because I can go live from my husbands account and like page from my phone. I can’t figure it out…help!
Great tips Chalene! I’m loving using FB Live and Stories on IG, though I’ve just started. Any tips for making better “eye contact” with my viewers aka the actual camera? Does it just take practice to stop looking at yourself while shooting?
I just love you, Chalene! You crack me up too! Thanks for always sharing such awesome info. The biggest fear I have going Live is messing up what I want to say and not being able to take it back!
Thankyou Chalene, this was a great help. God bless you and Brett for all you do for us little people and making us feel so good about ourselves
Always the best tips! Be fun and be done! 🙂
Great post – I just might brave it 🙂 I have a few local businesses so think I’ll plan a live post from outside somewhere, weather permitting, to show people how beautiful Danderyd (in Sweden) is.
Good info and tips Chalene…Thanks 🙂
Thank you so much!!
Awesome sauce! i tend to do some lip syncing during the beginning as I’m waiting for my viewers to jump on… It’s turned into a bit of a tradition.
my viewers know my content is high value so my drop rate is super low….
but now im going to quickly state what my live stream is about and then get back to what i do best.

I found a lot of value in this and want to put this to use. Thank you for sharing
This was great, Chalene, thanks!
But ONE problem…what do you do if you don’t have access to FB live on your phone yet? I don’t have a “post” or “publish” button.
Any ideas?
Thanks again for the awesome tips.
You will get it eventually. Facebook is rolling it out to people slowly. Also make sure you have the latest update on your phone 🙂
You always make it look so easy!! Love it! We have only done one live event hopefully we will get back into it. Thanks as always for your inspiration.
Fabulous and perfect timing as always Chalene! Thank you. Gonna make a list of topics to go live with.
Thank you for these tips Chalene! I need to go live more often. All week I have been saying to myself that I would go live and talk about a special promotion! It’s Friday and I haven’t gone live yet! My biggest hold up is that I don’t like how I look or sound! Anyway, I will get over it and I will follow your tips for my next live broadcast! Again, thanks and God bless!
That’s a good point to research what you’re going to say before you go live. That way you’ll be prepared during the stream. I play a lot of games and I’ve been looking at the different platforms to see if they’ll work with what I want to do.
Biggest fear about going Live….I’d say that I haven’t packed together a Freemium as you mentioned. I am so wrapped up with my full time job and kids that I haven’t figured out how to get my newsletters set up with core content to build my e-mail list, adding anything new to my website, and find everything very overwhelming. I know I have a lot to offer….just not sure how to package it.
