YouTube Upgrades 'Product Drop' & Community 'Post Creation' Features

A couple of important announcements from YouTube about the upgrades that they’re bringing to product drops and the community posting workflow. First about the product drops, they are expanding the feature availability to more users. The announcement says that “if you are a user who has connected your first party stores or if you are participating in the YouTube affiliate program, you can set up your product drops in the live control room”, which means basically more people will get access to product drops. The next big announcement is about the community post feature. Because I know many of you nonprofits and ministries use this community post actively. YouTube recently added multiple post types like polls and quizzes and disappearing messages and many more to the community posts. And now they are saying they have streamlined the workflow, the way you create content inside the community posts, which could be a useful thing. Pass this information on to your social media or your media ministry team.
