What sells on a live stream for kids?

Things with a decision in them. An item somebody is uncertain about — fit, size, quality, how it behaves — sells on a stream, because the stream answers the uncertainty in real time.

What sells, and what does not

What does not sell is the commodity line the buyer can price-compare in ten seconds. Putting it on a stream turns an hour of attention into a comparison shopping session.

Live selling works where the product has to be seen moving, worn or demonstrated, and does little where it does not. For a kids and baby store in the UAE, the answer turns on one thing in particular: The customer ages out of every product they buy, so the catalogue has to follow the child or the customer leaves.

Delivery expectations in the UAE are set by same-day services, so five-day shipping reads as slow whatever the price.

Card payment is the norm in the UAE, with cash on delivery still expected by a meaningful minority.

The work is not the video. It is buying inside the video, because a link to a product page loses most of the audience.

Where a mobile app comes into it

Knowing when somebody bought 6-month clothing tells you what they need in six months, and an app is where that is acted on.
