About Life coaching and live streaming
Life coaching and live streaming on your website is useful for just about anyone has an idea or a vision of who they would like to become. A life-coach or a wellness-coach pushes their clients towards achieving their life goals similar to how a basketball coach trains his NBA players towards winning a championship.
Depending on the aspect of your life you are trying to change, there is a coach for careers, relationships, and even health. Here is why you should start a life coaching business and live streaming your sessions.
There are life-coaching seminars that happen all over the world all the time. However, if we’re being honest with ourselves, people who wish to seek out career help, for instance, barely have time to achieve their career goals.
Attending in-person weekly seminars often becomes a hassle and after a few weeks, the whole process becomes counterproductive. In-person meetings do not take into account the time required to get ready, driving to the location, getting stuck in traffic, and then remembering you left something at home.
From the comfort of your own home, you can now stream your favorite life-coach. To life-coaches out there, we see you, we hear you, and today, we provide to you our streaming solution.

Mainstream Free Streaming Platforms
Free live streaming has grown significantly the past few months. While highly useful and effective in streaming (in their own ways), users have limited options and flexibility when it comes to monetization and content creation. YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram are some of the most popular amongst all the platforms that offer streaming services and may help you start a life coaching business. However…
Although Facebook’s data privacy has been enhanced and the data they currently collect is being used for marketing and for regulating your algorithm, that may not be something that you are interested in.
Moreover, most live-streamers want more than just YouTube’s ad revenue monetization model. Ads can be repetitive and annoying to your viewers. Your content is also being monitored by automated bots and could be flagged for copyright issues or spam for no reason whatsoever. Until you get in contact with someone to fix your issue, it may be days, weeks, or even months before you hear back.
On Instagram, your online activity is tracked and you cannot add a live-stream to your own website. Lastly, these platforms usually don’t allow you to create VODs and full-on playlists with your content.

Custom RTMP

Broadcasters such as OBS, Wirecast, vMix, and Zoom include RTMP as their input option which can be used to live-stream content to your website. Simply insert a username and a stream key. See here for more information on how to set up a live-stream.Also see what is RTMP.
Monetization Options
According to your content type, you have the opportunity to monetize your videos or offer your content for free.
Unlimited Channels
If you have multiple ideas in mind and don’t know what you want to stream, why choose? You are able to set up multiple channels and run them at the same time. These channels run 24/7 and keep your viewers informed at any time.
Customize your live streams
You can customize your live-streams, logos, and other graphics that would have otherwise not been possible with free streaming websites.
Monetization Options
Free
You can offer your live-streams and VODs for free to your viewers. You can gain valuable viewers by initially offering them free videos. Later on, they would be willing to pay for more content should you choose to monetize it.
You can always include ads and sponsored content into your videos and have a revenue stream flowing without having your viewers pay to watch.
Pay-per-View Model
Pay-per-view means that your viewers will pay to watch each of your live-streams or VODs. Usually, people prefer to PPV at first and get a feel for your coaching sessions and what resonates with them most. After they make their choices, they will fully commit to monthly payments.
Subscription-based Model
Viewers make monthly payments and have access to all the content on your website. In the long run, it is cheaper for viewers to make monthly payments.
However, it is more difficult to get new viewers to subscribe monthly from the beginning. They need some time to discover your content and as a result, commit to monthly payments.
Hybrid Model
Finally, you always have the option of adding different monetization options to each of your channels. All in all, you can organize your life-coaching sessions as you see fit.
