It’s almost time for #OctoberScopers and I am so excited! When Julie and I came up with #SeptemberScopers we had NO IDEA what a huge hit it would become! It has been so much fun meeting new people through Periscope… and I also feel an even closer connection to bloggers I have been following forever! It is really amazing how much you get to know a person while watching their scopes!
If you didn’t take part in #SeptemberScopers, here’s the lowdown. #OctoberScopers is a scope a day challenge, with suggested prompts. The goal is to get more comfortable with Periscope, while having the support of others who are also taking part in the challenge. It worked so well in September, that many people asked Julie and I to continue on for October. So if you have been thinking about trying Periscope… this is your chance, you won’t regret it! (Here’s a few more tips & tricks if you are new to Periscope)
This time around, we tried to create a more diverse selection of topics. We wanted to include a few healthy eating, fitness type prompts for our fitness buffs! We also thought people did well with tutorials & crafts, so we have a bunch of those.
Just a few reminders:
- Don’t forget to include the #OctoberScopers hashtag in your title and share to twitter. That is how we will find your scopes!
- You don’t have to follow the exact prompts. Just include the #OctoberScopers hashtag and we will find you!
- Don’t feel bad if you can’t get to everyone, there is A LOT of participants, so just do your best. Catch replays when you can and if you can hop into a live scope… even better!
- Give LOTS of hearts! (because, who doesn’t like hearts?)
To connect with everyone taking part in the challenge, we have created a Facebook group called Scoper Support. The group is set to private, but anyone can join! My Periscope handle is @WorkingMomMagic. I look forward to watching your scopes!
Yay! I'm so excited! ๐
Woo! #OctoberScopers I am having way too much fun getting to know you all.
Can't wait!! Would love to join the FB group!
I was just reading about this on Tarynn's page. I am definitely going to check out your scopes this month. I think it may be too much for me to join in with the baby due next week, but maybe I'll start if you do it again for November.
I love this idea! I have a Periscope account but haven't done it yet. There is something about being on live video that intimidates me. But I love watching oters, so I really need to take the plunge.
Awesome! I love watching these.. Still not down for doing them myself though lol!
This is such an amazing idea. I am going to be trying this come October as I will be starting maternity leave!!!
I'm going to do it! Thanks for organizing it for another month ๐
What a great idea! If I ever get the courage up…and my hair done…I'm in!
i LOVE the topic ideas, I wasn't sure if I could hack it since I TOTALLY failed September Scopers but you are really inspiring me!
I don't use Periscope, but this is also a great idea for blogging ๐
