How to Succeed on Amazon Live

My guest this week is Chris Stone of @castahead and also with Jim Fuhs @Dealcasters When I first heard that creators could join the Amazon Influencer Program and stream to Amazon as ‘live sellers’ it conjured up images of shopping channels like QVC and all of the connotations that go along with that (good or bad, I’ll let you decide). What I quickly learnt, though, from Chris and Jim’s work, is that there is another way to approach this. In deed, it is fair to say that I would not be live streaming the recording of the podcast to Amazon right now, where it not for them. Similarly When it comes to recorded content on Amazon, creating videos that appear on product pages, there is also a different approach required to that which you be used to using for creating content on YouTube… once again, I have taken cues from Chris and Jim here too. 🏆 WHO IS CHRIS STONE? With a 25+ year history in the music industry with Sony, driven and passionate entrepreneur Chris Stone founded the Podcast and Live Streaming Consultancy Cast Ahead after the success of his own co-hosted podcasts changed his life. At Cast Ahead, Chris thrives on enabling driven entrepreneurs, influencers, thought leaders and enterprises to express their story and elevate their reach. ⭐️ FAVOURITE TECH I'm loving the new Vocaster One from Focusrite. It has incredible portability, is solid - and has the killer preamps that Focusrite is known for! Not only that, no need for a Cloudlifter/Fet with my SM7b mic! https://amzn.to/3ykOGWq 📘 BOOK RECOMMENDATION Create Something Awesome - Roberto Blake: https://amzn.to/3yUNiK5 📸 CAMERA GEAR Sony Alpha A6100 Mirrorless Camera: https://amzn.to/3NI8SGc Sony Alpha ZV-1: https://amzn.to/3nySz4d 🎙 AUDIO GEAR Rodecaster Pro II: https://amzn.to/3P6uFc1 Shure MV7: https://amzn.to/3yFZTRJ Shure SM7b: https://amzn.to/3M9SqQb Heil PR 40: https://amzn.to/3rBm5bC Shure SE215 PRO Wired Earbuds: https://amzn.to/3NJ5Txg Universal Audio Apollo Twin Heritage: https://amzn.to/3RlXfYX Focusrite Vocaster One: https://amzn.to/3ykOGWq 🎛 OTHER HARDWARE Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Pro ISO: https://amzn.to/3V6oZT2 Mogami Gold Studio Cables: https://amzn.to/3yDsdnY Sceptre 24" Professional Thin 75Hz 1080p LED Monitor: https://amzn.to/3yI34IR Glide Gear TMP100 Teleprompter: https://amzn.to/3rBTrqG 📇CONNECT WITH CHRIS STONE Website: http://ChrisStone.Contact Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/Dealcasters Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/castahead Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CastAhead Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/AheadCast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@castahead and TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dealcasters Amazon: https://castahead.shop Amazon: https://Dealcasters.Shop LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisstoneatl/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/dealcasters-live #podcast #livestreaming #contentcreator Subscribe to the audio version of the Live Streamer Backstage podcast here: http://www.livestreamerbackstage.com This podcast is powered by Ecamm Live: https://takeonetech.io/ecamm ===‼️ CHECKOUT MY COURSES & AFFILIATE PROGRAM 📕 Rodecaster Pro 2 Masterclass 👉 http://www.rodecastermasterclass.com 📙 Ecamm Live Masterclass 👉 http://www.ecammlivemasterclass.com 📘 Stream Deck Masterclass 👉 http://www.streamdeckmasterclass.com 💰 Become a Take One Tech Affiliate & EARN 30% COMMISSION on referrals to my courses! http://takeonetech.io/affiliate_users/sign_up ===💫 CONNECT WITH ME & THE COMMUNITY 🎬 Join the Take One Tech family to learn, share and grow with me and others (it’s free!) https://www.takeonetech.io/family 🎫 Discover the added benefits of becoming a channel member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPhgY2-f3mDdn7SvdKQjptA/join ☎️ Need some 1 on 1 time with me?
