Remember your biggest competition as a streamer isn’t other creators it’s literally every other source of entertainment (YouTube, TikTok, Netflix etc.)
When a viewer chooses you it’s a big deal
Don’t forget that ☺️
Don’t post that you’re going “live” ❌
Tell them about the challenge you will face ✅
Tell them about the goal you will achieve ✅
Tell them about the STORY they will get to be a part of ✅
Don’t give up on short form content because it didn’t go viral
Don’t give up bc it DID go viral and you didnt get new followers
Don’t give up bc you only got a few followers
It takes 7+ positive impressions to convert fans to followers to viewers!
the ultimate twitch viewer green flags:
💚 points out audio issues
💚 reminds the streamer to take care of themselves
💚 creates clips and titles them
💚 welcomes new names
💚 understands that ads are a part of the experience
💚 sparks conversations
💚 "thank you for streaming!"
Hot take:
SOME small creators are super entertaining but just haven’t found their audience yet…
MANY creators are not yet entertaining and just go live hoping for growth
The best creators use most of their time improving their content
This means analyzing and reviewing your content, productively comparing your content to top creators, and looking at the times viewers fell off
