Starter live selling kit

Everything you need to run clean, professional live selling streams from your phone. The Starter kit fixes the three things that matter most on day one — steady framing, flattering light and clear sound — and it fits on a desk.

From [PRICE]

What's in the kit

  • Phone tripod with clamp — keeps framing steady and frees both hands for products.
  • LED key light, daylight-balanced — makes your face and products look true to color.
  • Wireless clip-on microphone — clear voice even when you turn away to show an item.

Who it's for

Solo sellers starting on Whatnot, TikTok, Instagram or a Shopify store; anyone moving from handheld streaming to a fixed setup.

How to set it up

  1. Put the phone on the tripod at eye level, rear camera facing you.
  2. Place the key light about 45 degrees to one side and slightly above eye level.
  3. Clip the mic about a hand's width below your chin and pair it with the phone.
  4. Turn on Do Not Disturb, plug the phone into power and run a 30-second test recording.

When to upgrade

Add a second light when shadows look harsh, and move to the Boutique kit when you sell apparel or stream from a store.

Can I use this kit with any phone?
