Facebook Live is one of the hottest social media tools available. If you haven’t gone live yet on Facebook, I would encourage you to get out of your comfort zone and broadcast in the next 30 days.
Question:
How long should a Facebook Live Broadcast be?

Answer:
Great question Deidra! Facebook Live is the live-streaming video service offered by Facebook to complete with YouTube Live and Periscope.
You can use your mobile phone to broadcast directly on Facebook. This is an extremely powerful way to reach people on Facebook with your message.
Facebook Live broadcasts will naturally be a little longer than a pre-recorded video you would publish on YouTube. You can take the content from a 3 minute video you record for YouTube and do a Facebook Live broadcast that might last between 10 – 15 minutes. The length of the broadcast will depend on how many people you have on your broadcast live and how much they interact with you.
If you haven’t tried Facebook Live yet, I encourage you to give it a shot. It’s a great way to add value to your audience.

This is great to know, Rick, thanks!
Would love to see a blog (or maybe a webinar?) on the nuts and bolts of how to hold a Facebook Live event.
