When you first start an online business people tell you to hit social media with all you got. So you use Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Blogs, and the list goes on and on. The problem is, you need followers for those, and that is hard to get sometimes. Pinterest on the other hand requires that you just share good content and then that little share has the potential to be shared forever. What confuses most folks is what to pin ( or share) as it is called now. Think of Pinterest as a search engine, people are looking for something and you are going to give it to them. Your boards should be 80% OPS ( other people's stuff), and 20% your content, otherwise you just look spammy. ![]()
This little guy has 26,675 views in 30 days. All natural, no crazy stuff on my part. Now, what kind of board could this go on? I have a beach decor board, a funny home decor board, a board with my business name, and 2 group boards. I have plans to add more boards that this could fit in, like gifts for beach lover, or funny gifts. The more boards, the more the chance of being found, and the more pins ( or saves) you will get.
So that is the why you want to use Pinterest, I will be posting more on business accounts vs personal accounts and all that fun stuff. Happy pinning! ( or saving )
