Letting you all in on "our little secret" 🤫

StreamYard (plus our incredible team setting it all up 🙌) has been monumental in elevating our livestreams both looks-wise and engagement-wise. It's easy to use and has really changed the game for us.

Some of what we love about it:
- Multiplatform broadcasting (hello & 👋)
- Branding elements (backgrounds, overlays, etc.)
- Banners
- Ability to view and respond to comments (and even bring them into the stream)
- Background music
- Intro & outro videos
- "Green room" where your guests can hang out until they're brought on the stream

For anyone out there doing , we really recommend checking out StreamYard. If you do, let us know what you think.

Got any live-streaming platforms you recommend or don't recommend? Let's get some going in the comments.
