Topic tags: marketing, pinterest
  • I see a few Pinterest topic discussions on the forum and I know a lot of us (as marketers) have questions on how to best utilize the site. I subscribe to and read a lot of blogs and I just read over this post on Copyblogger the other day – I think you’ll find the tips covered in the article VERY useful. Enjoy!

  • @ferrisstith et al,

    Although sharing links is great, maybe you could couch it in a post where you talk about 2 or 3 of your favorite ideas, so we keep the conversation lively here.

    Thanks!

  • Awesome information!  Thanks from this pinterest newbee.

  • Good idea @richbrooks…

    I love the “gifts” idea – this is great for all those small jewelry biz owners on Etsy. They would just need to make sure to include the pricing and info that links back to their Esty store. Personally I’ve found a couple of new designers that I love just from browsing the Pinterest gifts sections.

    Since we are a B2B marketing services company and we don’t have physical products, I’m going to try implementing this idea with our CEO’s book.

    Pinterest is based on aesthetic images, so I see companies who have blogs with beautiful images within their posts doing really well on this platform.

  • Funny – after I posted this comment above, I read this on another blog (jeffbullas.com, also a top 10 blogger awardee from SME)… definitely going to implement this and see how it goes:

    Not every business sells products. Pinterest is still a useful marketing tool for these businesses. If you provide a service, you can create a kind of visual resume with Pinterest. For example, if you design Web sites, you can pin a screenshot of a home page. If you are a graphic designer, you can pin samples of your work. If you offer other services, such as consulting or writing work, you can use Pinterest to share photos that inspire or that share a message about your work. For example, financial consultants could pin to photos that represent client goals, such as financial independence or financing education. Non-profit groups can share photos of the clients they are helping.
