Advertise on podcast: Podzilla's Guide To Streaming

I had been splitting time between Twitch and Trovo for about a month and a half, and decided to give Trovo my full focus for the month of June. I lasted about half the month before deciding to make what could be the best decision of my streaming career!

Follow4Follow. Support4Support. Supporting too many people. These are some of the mistakes I've made over my 2+ years of streaming. Mistakes that I want each of YOU to avoid!

These next few weeks I am going to be doing a series on my tips for new streamers and those who feel stuck in the low viewer (3-5) range. This week we talk about getting started and what you need to know and have before and when you start. 

The stream disconnected right at the end so I ended the episode (I was almost done anyway), hence the abrupt cutoff.  This week is a special episode: it was recorded during my two year streaming anniversary so I wanted to talk about everything that I've learned so far as a streamer! Also, I will be doing my last Twitch stream for a month today (May 31st) because I want to dedicate a month to Trovo and see what the growth is like for me.

(Note: These are all my recommendations, not a rulebook. Some Discords allow things that I say you shouldn't do, and vice-versa.)  I believe Discord is a big tool for streamers, however some may not know how to use it or the proper etiquette (if there really is any) of it. This week I take a dive into it and give you some recommendations!  twitch.tv/podzilla_ for LIVE recordings + Fortnite and Bloodhunt streams

Through my two years of streaming I've picked up some things about networking, what has and hasn't worked for me and what I've seen work for others. It's time I tell you about these things I've picked up that have helped me find success, and I hope you can figure out how to make them work best for you!

NOTE: I HIGHLY recommend you watch this episode on either Spotify or YouTube versus only listening to it. I show different things on both the Twitch and Trovo sites so just listening won't give you the same information. This week we dive more into why I love Trovo and why I think it could be a top platform in a few years. There are some rough spots, but it's similarities with Twitch (and much better discoverability) make it a good destination to move to or test out.

Having now streamed on all four big platforms (Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and Trovo), I decided it would be best if I gave my thoughts on each of them in case someone is looking to try another platform. We get my takes as well as chat's takes, and MikeWhob and I just can't seem to stop singing Trovo's praises...

We don't always think about the effect our words have on other people, especially innocent people who hear what we say. This episode is all about the Twitter drama regarding Twitch streamers, and how words affect not only people involved in the drama but also people who may end up getting dragged into something they wanted no part of.

This week we wrap up our GoMiCo series with our third key: Confidence! We discuss how some streamers are naturally confident, how some need that little extra boost from achieving their goals, and how the other two keys tie in with this one to create my philosophy.

Last week we covered the first of my three keys to success, Goals. This week let's take a look at the second key, Mindset. Mindset will cause everything to snowball, the issue is it can snowball in a positive AND a negative way. All depends on how you think.

Taking a page from my own (published) book, we're working our way through my GoMiCo philosophy these next few weeks! This week we're looking at goals and how to set them to be as achievable as possible.
