#SeptemberScopers Challenge

Perfect your Periscope skills!

This week I posted about my current Periscope obsession and I had a huge reaction from you guys! So many people commented saying that they really want to try Periscope or use it more, but they feel intimidated and nervous. My friend Julie (who blogs at Girl on the Move) and I were talking about this and we decided the best way to get over our own fears and help other new scopers to conquer theirs was to start a scope a day challenge! I am SO SO EXCITED about this and I would love for you to join in!!

 
Here’s how it will work. The goal is to do at least one scope a day for the month of September. I have provided a list of prompts to help you out, but you can scope about whatever you want if you don’t like the prompt for that day.

Use the hashtag #SeptemberScopers in the title of every scope! (and be sure you share your scopes on Twitter) THIS IS SO IMPORTANT! This way, all the bloggers that are taking part in the challenge will be able to search for other scopers. We are all here to support each other and grow our Periscope followers.

 

So if you see the #SeptemberScopers hashtag:
  • Follow the person
  • If you catch the periscope while it is live then share it with your followers and on twitter, interact and give TONS of hearts by tapping on the screen!
  • If you catch the replay then give lots of hearts and tweet out the replay to help them find more followers.
Hopefully, after this month we will all have new, quality followers and get some practice on Periscope. This live, video streaming app is still in the early stages, and big changes and updates are in the works to make it even MORE popular. (being able to share directly to Facebook, the ability to rewind & fast forward, and the ability to search hashtags) Right now, you can’t search a hashtag directly on Periscope, so you have to be sure to share to twitter so we can find each other.
This is a great opportunity if you have been thinking about trying to Periscope more since we are all going to try to watch, share and support each other.
I have teamed up with some amazing women for this challenge:
Julie at Girl on the Move Periscope: @jmdenouden
Lisa at Goofball Mommy Periscope:@goofballmommy
Laci at Sequins in the South Periscope: @SequinsintheSouth
Phyllis at Verified Mom Periscope: @verifiedmom
Jeannine at At Home with the O’Neils Periscope:@jeannine_oneil
Bev at Linkouture Periscope: @linkouture
Denise at STL Motherhood Periscope: @STLMotherhood
Jill at Ripped Jeans & Bifocals Periscope: @JillinIL
Amee at Inspired Housewife Periscope: @InspiredHseWife
and don’t forget about ME!
Periscope: @WorkingMomMagic

This is all for fun! If you miss a few days, no biggie! Don’t like the prompt for the day? Instead scope about something you want to talk about, just include the #SeptemberScopers hashtag in the title of your scope. This isn’t sponsored, we are not getting paid or sent free stuff to do this. It is just an idea we all thought would be fun to try. I am looking forward to watching all of your scopes and I hope to see you in the #SeptemberScopers challenge!

    Great idea! Do we have to stick to this list? Can it be other topics??

      Nope, you can do whatever you'd like.. and you will get the same support as long as you use the hashtag somewhere in the title. We just thought the prompts could help people who have been nervous to go on because they dont know what to talk about, etc. 🙂

    Great challenge. I'd love to do this eventually, but first I need to figure out what Periscope is. Haha! I feel like you are my cool friend that "knows" cool things. Thanks for teaching me! Haha

      haha I am cracking up since I always feel like I am the LAST to know about things! But you should at least create an account and you can spy on all of our scopes to see what it is about! Then you could scope your Zumba classes and I can take them from home!

    I LOVE this idea. But I am partially scared, too. I'm missing a few teeth due to medications I've taken, so I'm SO nervous to put myself on camera.

    Thank you for the inspiration. I uploaded my periscope to YouTube tonight and thought I'd share the link: https://youtu.be/SV9R5G2L2dU I found out how to make a background for YouTube through this video by @MandyJeanChic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VteyT3CvQhc
