# Livestream Abroad

{% hint style="info" %}
**Summary:**  

1. Offer an [exclusive local gift](#exclusive-free-gifts) if customer purchase during your trip
2. Notify your customers using [Messenger Marketing](#messenger-marketing-notifications) of your livestreams abroad 
3. Create [limited time coupons](#limited-time-coupons) that can only be used during your trip
   {% endhint %}

Hosting a livestream in another country is exciting. You can find more unique products, get better prices, and go to more exotic locations.

But it's also a lot more costly in time, energy, and money. You need to coordinate your travel schedule, manage order logistics, and spend more just to get there. 

So how do you get the most out of it?

One answer is ads. Buy ads from Meta to reach more people. 

Another answer is to use 1send loyalty points.  

{% hint style="success" %}
You can use both Meta ads & 1send loyalty points at the same time.

## Use 1send to Get More from Live Selling Abroad

### Exclusive Free Gifts

A key benefit of livestreaming in another country is access to unique products. Create an exclusive [Free Gift](/points/redeem-awards/free-gift.md) redeem award with a local product. Tell your customer the free gift can only be added to their cart if they make the purchase before your trip ends. 

For example, if you're traveling to China you can include a local Chinese snack that is difficult to find or expensive in your home country.

Since customers use points for the `Free gift` redeem award, it motivates them to engage more with your livestreams during your trip.

### Messenger Marketing Notifications

In the week leading up to your travels, make sure your customers know about it. Post about your trip AND for them to [Subscribe to FB Messages](/points/earn-actions/subscribe-to-fb-messages.md). Then when you do go live both during your trip and afterwards, they get automatically notified.

The worst possible situation is an interested customer that does not know your livestream is happening.

If you haven't already, set up your `Subscribe to FB Messages` earn action. Then tell your customers to subscribe.

### Limited Time Coupons

Create a new limited time [Amount Discount](/points/redeem-awards/amount-discount.md) or [Percent Discount](/points/redeem-awards/percent-discount.md) redeem award specifically for your trip. Set the expiry date to the last day of your trip. This way your customers that redeem this award will use it during your trip.

Set the awards value to be very attractive for your customer. An easy way is to use comparisons. For example:

* If you already have an `Amount discount` redeem award that is **$5 for 500 points**
* You can create limited time `Amount discount` redeem award that is **$5 for 100 points**. Set the expiry date to the last day of your trip in your ecommerce checkout tool and the 1send dashboard
* After the trip, disable the new limited time  `Amount discount` redeem award
