Okay…. Who loves Pinterest?🖐Hands go up! What an awesome platform! All the helpful information that we can receive and share on Pinterest is really amazing! Even if you’re brand new to Pinterest, you can still implement The Perfect Pinterest Strategy! It’s so simple and it’s going to Make Pinterest Work For You!

📌How Exactly Can Pinterest Help My Business?

Pinterest can help your business simply by driving traffic to your website. Pinterest has over 335 million monthly active users! That is huge… and according to a Pew Research study, the majority of Pinterest users earn more than $75,000 a year. That means more often than not, people who use Pinterest have a disposable income and that my friend, is awesome for your business!

📌What Is The Perfect Pinterest Strategy?

First of all make sure you’re using the best keywords. You’ll find the best keywords just by searching on Pinterest, I show you how in my post: 5 Pinterest Tips To Get Results Fast! You can also Use the New Pinterest Keyword Tool, Pinterest Trends! You’ll be able to enter a search term at the top and it’ll show you the number of searches over time (from 1-100) and it also shows when, by the week, these search terms are at their highest! Very awesome!

Make sure to use keywords in your pin title, pin description, board name, board description and on the image itself.

Now… What is The Perfect Pinterest Strategy!? It is making and pinning fresh, high quality content! Fresh content is new images! Whether it’s on your pins or video pins that haven’t been seen before, I can’t stress this enough. This is more important now, more than ever. Do Not keep using the same pins over and over again. Make sure to also switch up the titles, keywords, descriptions and hashtags on your pins.

Make fresh pins (always use a 2:3 ratio) for your new content, as well as your existing posts. Fresh pins are key🗝 to The Perfect Pinterest Strategy and really have been for a while now BUT they’re really stressing this again! Trust me this is working, before this I was never any higher than 50,000. My Pinterest monthly viewers have been increasing like crazy, especially since I’ve been making new pins (usually 2 or 3) every day. I’m not kidding, take a peek below!

📌Why Is It So Simple And How Do I Implement It?

This strategy is so simple because you can make your Pinterest pins so easily with Canva, absolutely FREE! You definitely don’t have to be a graphic designer to use Canva, it’s super user friendly!

There is also a paid version which is Canva Pro. With that you’ll get more content, better organization and simpler creation. This is amazing for only $10 a month, saving you so much time on your designs! Plus if you’d like to try Canva Pro, you’ll get a 30 day FREE trial! See the side by side comparison of Canva and Canva Pro below:

There’s a reason why Canva has over 18 million users and that number grows every day. It really is super easy to use and you can do so much with it! Now with that being said, you can absolutely use the free version of Canva. I used it for over a year and loved it before I decided to try Canva Pro. Now that I have Canva Pro… I love it even more.😜

How do I implement The Perfect Pinterest Strategy? Use both manual pinning and scheduled pinning. Yes, make sure to do both! I believe the manual pinning is just as important as the scheduled pinning and doing both really helps your results!

The scheduled pinning with Tailwind is a breeze. Tailwind is a Pinterest scheduling tool and an official Pinterest partner. They work closely with Pinterest to make sure they’re following the best practices. Tailwind’s SmartGuide and SpamGuard features, help you implement the new best practices by monitoring your pinning and alerting you to any issues. You’ll never have to worry about pinning too much or pinning the same content too often because Tailwind recognizes that and they’ll let you know! #sosmart😉

Accelerate Pinterest growth with Power-Ups. The Tailwind Tribes gets you in front of like-minded people that want to see your content! You can save a lot of time by batch scheduling your pins with Tailwind to publish at the best time for the most amount of engagement. The SmartLoop recirculates your pins for you indefinitely, which is totally awesome!

Tailwind will also help to keep you consistent on Pinterest, which is extremely important! Remember… Pinterest l💗ves to see you every day, not just once in a while… #CONSISTENCY!

📌How Much Should I Pin?

The amount to pin varies depending upon what you’re doing, BUT pin anywhere between 5 to 30 pins per day (not more than 50) and make sure to space them out, throughout the day. Make sure to pin others’ pins as well, not just your own. Don’t worry, you’ll figure out what works best for you.😉

When you’re pinning, make sure to pin your “fresh content” to the most relevant board first and then schedule it to a few more relevant boards. Don’t over do it. Tailwind is saying to not schedule it to more than 10 boards but I try keep it to 5 to 8 myself. You can then share and schedule your other images in the same way. Again, spreading them out and seeing what works best for you.

Oh, one last thing but certainly not least… pin your content at least 45 days in advance of any upcoming holidays or special events. That means if you want something up by Christmas, make sure to pin it by the second week of November.

📌Conclusion

Thank you for taking the time to read The Perfect Pinterest Strategy. Pinterest is a great platform to get your business the traffic it needs! Follow this strategy and I’m sure you’ll be more than pleased with the results!
