1. Create a Business Account 

Pinterest happens to make this process super simple, and you have the option to easily convert by clicking “Upgrade to Business Account” under your drop-down menu. If you plan on using Pinterest for your business or to sell your products, this is a step you simply CAN’T SKIP. 

Having a Pinterest Business Account is ESSENTIAL for promotion and analytics! Not only that, but having a Pinterest Business Account makes your website visible to the millions of people using the platform! 

2. Create Captivating Pins

Pinterest is all about visuals, and creating EYE-CATCHING pins is important for getting people to click on your content. With a Pinterest Business Account, you are able to create Rich Pins, which are proven to get the most clicks on the site.

Words also play a HUGE part in connecting to our emotions and using captivating headlines to draw in your audience is essential. Make sure you are not only creating a visual but writing a message on the Pin that directly leads your audience to your content. 

 I like to use Canva to create my Pins, as it is a simple platform to use to test out your creativity!
