Social Streaming Services

Social Media Streaming.

Groovy Gecko is a Facebook Live and YouTube Live 360 partner. We’re the go-to live streaming agency for some of the biggest companies in the world and have a wide network of global studios and crew so we can work with you, no matter where you are.

Social Media Streaming is all about engaging with your audience on a personal level through the social platforms they use every day. From film premieres to concerts to celebrity interviews, we can stream your event to social media pages on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Streaming to social channels are likely to see higher engagement levels than streaming to other platforms such as your website, since your followers will receive an instant notification when you go live and are likely to already be online. Our engineers will be on-site to set up the encoders and ensure the stream is smooth and seamless. And if the broadband connection on-site isn’t great, we use a wide range of technologies to connect the video signal and encode it to the highest quality. Using our unique set of tools, we’re able to engage audiences to help deliver against KPI’s, such as increased viewing times, higher levels of engagement and increased responses to CTAs such as purchasing or donating. Thinking about live streaming your next event? Let’s talk.

Stream To:



Facebook

Streaming into Facebook puts you at the top of your followers’ news feeds and is a great way to promote your brand and interact with your current followers and their networks. While you’re streaming, our team can also edit and clip live video footage and post the clips straight to your page to promote the live stream instantly, while you’re still live!



Twitter

A high-quality live stream on your Twitter page can increase engagement by opening up the conversation between you and your followers and making them feel involved in your event through interactive questions and polling, sharable content or even live hashtag competitions.



Instagram

Show your followers a more authentic, behind-the-scenes look at your brand or event by going live on IG. From backstage interviews to exclusive events, your followers will feel connected in a personal way, with notifications sent straight to their phones and live content they can interact with.



LinkedIn

This platform is perfect for B2B communications as well as for brands who want to extend their reach to professionals active on social media, beyond the typical social platforms of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Streaming to LinkedIn is also a great way for corporate brands to interact with their audience in a more casual and interesting way, as opposed to an online webcast or live presentation.



YouTube

Live streaming your event to YouTube is perfect for a high-quality stream as audiences will not just be tuning in on their phones, but likely to be watching on their desktop or smart screen devices in HD. The live stream will also be pulled through to search engines, improving your reach and increasing the likelihood that you’ll deliver on your KPI’s.

Amazon

Perfect for e-commerce brands, streaming to Amazon opens up new opportunities for brands who want to interact with their consumers in exciting ways. Not only can offering a live, interactive element to a product improve sales, but it can add value to the product, while allowing for limited edition promotions that can increase brand awareness and buzz around your products. We are currently the only agency in the UK with the ability to stream directly to an Amazon page and can read more about the first ever interactive live event streamed into Amazon UK and Amazon DE here.

Venue Connectivity.

As an addition to our live streaming services, Groovy Gecko also benefits from a satellite downlinking facility, with connections to BT Tower & NY waterfront. We also have a suite of LiveU units which can provide connectivity on-site no matter where you are. The broad range of signal acquisition options allows us to downlink content from anywhere in the world without needing to be on site. Once we have the feed at our London hub, we can then deliver the streams to a host of platforms including social media platforms or our LPS.

LiveU offers a solution where internet connectivity is limited onsite. Particularly useful for outside broadcasts, or those on the move, the unit works by bonding cellular data to create an upstream internet connection which transmits video content back to our London hub and can also act as a standalone internet connection in ‘data bridge’ mode.
