Frequently Asked Questions
Why use Pinterest for marketing?
Pinterest has over 320 million monthly active users, of which, over 80% have made a purchase based on something they saw on Pinterest. Eighty-five percent of Pinners say visuals are key when shipping for apparel and furniture and more than 56 million pinners actively engage with home content. (Can you tell I’m a sucker for analytics?) More than 200 billion pins have been saved on Pinterest. How many of them are your content?
Pinterest vs Instagram… Which is better?
Both platforms are great for their particular uses but since I’m a Pinterest strategist, I’ll start there. Pinterest is a visual search engine. This means that if a Pinner searches for a particular keyword or phrase, your visual content could come up in the search results for years to come. Pinterest allows you to be seen potentially forever by your ideal client, Instagram lets you be seen immediately by your followers. Comparatively, the average life span for an Instagram post is 48 hours while the average lifespan of a Pinterest pin is 3 months. You do the math 🙂
Pinterest Strategist vs. Pinterest Virtual Assistant?
I am a Pinterest strategist because I work alongside you to craft a strategy that incorporates Pinterest along with your other marketing strategies (instagram, ads, facebook, email funnels, etc) to make one cohesive plan. Additionally, I stay abreast of Pinterest and Design best practices to provide the best insight for you and your design business as we work together to meet your goals. A pinterest VA manages pinterest tasks without the strategy input.
How do you become successful on Pinterest?
As a search engine, it takes 2-6 months to become indexed on Pinterest. Think of Google SEO rankings: you don’t post one blog and expect to be listed on the first page of a Google search. Pinterest is the same. It takes a strategic and consistent pinning strategy to begin to rank well on the visual search engine. This is why some of my packages have contract timelines, so you don’t get discouraged by month one and we can ensure we reap the fruits of our working relationship.
Once we work together, how does my account information remain secure?
Your Pinterest and Tailwind account information is shared with me via LastPass, a secure password management system that allows you to easily send encrypted passwords to someone else. I take client security very seriously and will not share your information outside of Pin by Design. However, with LastPass, you can revoke your shared account information with anyone at any time.
