In addition, scheduling posts can drive additional reach and I would recommend scheduling posts a week or two out. LinkedIn also promotes your posts in the feed, like any other content. And LinkedIn Lives are showing on top of your profile while live. You can push that reach farther by scheduling streams. LinkedIn Lives show up in the feed of your followers.

So my plan was to livestream and then use the content elsewhere as well. I’ve been using LinkedIn Live to livestream my podcast.

You need to use one of their third-party partners to do that. On Twitter, you can go live directly from the app – video or audio. To stream to Linkedin, you have to use a third-party tool.
