Video used to be about telling stories, but some smart app companies are combining live streaming with gifting and other perks to develop new, cool and incredibly lucrative sources of revenue.

Catherine candidly shares her learnings about live streaming, including how to (and not to) build a platform to support the media, cultivate “super streamers” and encourage users to spend more time and money.
