‘LinkedIn UNLOCKED’ Hits No 1; Amazon To Livestream NFL Again (Update Ep56)

Ross Brand with your Livestream Universe Update and Flash Briefing for Friday, April 27th, 2018.

Melonie Dodaro was a popular live streamer back in the early days of Blab, but she’s better known as one of the world’s top LinkedIn experts. Her new book, “LinkedIn UNLOCKED,” dropped yesterday. In it’s first day, the book hit number one on Amazon in 7 countries, including the US, UK, Canada and Brazil and 63 categories.

Speaking of Amazon, the company will retain live streaming rights to NFL Thursday Night Football games for at least two more seasons. Amazon hopes to build on last year’s 310-thousand average viewers per minute. That accounted for 2.2 percent of total viewership.

Last year, Amazon paid more than 50 million dollars for the 11-game package. That’s 5-times more than Twitter shelled out for Thursday Night Football in 2016.
