Hire professionals!

No kidding.  For a while, my previous startup ran a few live-streamed events and can tell you it’s hard stuff to get right.

A few months ago, my team was asked to capture HD video and live-stream the entire day for an “Access to Capital” event in Downtown LA.  Theoretically, my team could have tried to take this on, but we were super busy with the event and didn’t have the experience to do it right.

I reached out to some video folks who reached out to some folks who connected me up with the Livestream team.  I have been using the Livestream for a long time to host our live video streams, but didn’t know they had the ability to handle the production side of things.

Anyway, they rocked the boat.  While they’re may be cheaper options out there, I’ve never dealt with a live-streaming team that was so professional and on top of all the details.  When they asked, I was more than happy to throw a positive testimonial their way… which a friend just pointed out to me in an email is now live on their site: Livestream Plans.

If you’re curious to see the quality level they we got from the Livestream production team, we chopped up the video to highlight the various panels from the day and posted them here: Want Funding? Let The Experts Guide You!
