With the Lightcast Media Cloud, you can intuitively build your own streaming business, reach new viewers and customers, run ads, sell subscriptions and PPV events—far beyond the possibilities of social media. Feel free to continue using social media and video websites. But also invest in your own business, your own brand, your own audience—with your own website, and your own mobile and TV apps.
