Two Shopee Live streamers share the benefits of live streaming and how these new activities helped them create an exciting atmosphere to sell their products.

 

Rina Alinsunurin Salcedo, a 28-year old Shopee seller, shared how Shopee Live has benefited her business. She started live streaming in 2019 and discovered how effective it was in helping her gain sales and interact with her viewers more. “Through Shopee Live, we could demonstrate and explain our products effectively to our customers and answer their inquiries in real-time. It’s also through Shopee Live where we can talk about the product and assess which ones we would recommend to our viewers, making it an interactive online shopping for both parties. With our sales from Shopee Live, we were able to occupy a 3-story building office. We are very motivated to stream every day with these new Shopee Live initiatives for 6.6, and so far, it has boosted our sales. I’m excited to know what new initiatives Shopee has in store for us.” 

 

Meanwhile, Shopee livestreamer, Zedrick Lugada Arnuco, said that initiatives like the 6.6 Suki Marathon is an opportunity for him to push sales and reach his quota. “As Shopee continues to come up with fun activities, it has allowed me to grow as a content creator, challenging myself to push beyond my limits.” His experience as a live stream viewer also provided insights into what exactly his viewers are looking for during a stream.

“During competitions like the 6.6 Suki Marathon, I am very appreciative of viewers’ eagerness to help me to boost sales and engagement. I usually receive messages from them saying how much they’ve enjoyed my live stream, and they also motivate me to join more competitions. These 6.6 live stream activities provide a win-win situation, where viewers can stand to win prizes and streamers can also use the chance to achieve more engagements.”
