Be a Smart Pinner on Pinterest Make Smarter Profits





1. Make your product a hero- offer the product promise-
Don’t beat around the bush in visuals and content- talk straight about your company and product is the hero.

2. Be different, yet relevant- that’s creative-
Make the entire presentation a breath of fresh air, different from the predictable, expected.

3. More visuals, apt content- One picture is worth a thousand words and more attracting, effective that to tell in text. However, the text is important to take the visual ahead. 

4. know of the PIN APPEAL- The pin has to appeal psychologically, neuro-linguistically to the viewer’s senses- further telling the benefit of the product.

5. Let the content tell a story- Storytelling is heard, read by anyone in the age of 6 to 60- and the message is driven home- no matter what is the product.

6.Pin at a regular frequency- Don’t keep the pin unchanged for a longer time. Change it, let the viewer get addicted to looking forward to the new pin.

7. Plan the whole year’s pins- View the year in advance with the product marketing objectives. Keep the seasonality of the product in mind, specific offer days like valentine’s day, a new year, Xmas, anniversary day, e.g. Amazon anniversary sale- and devise pins accordingly.

8. Make value addition offers financial every quarter- Every company looks at growth as per the financial year, The fin. Year is in 4 quarters. Each quarter preview the possibilities of increasing the sales and devise offers accordingly they can be on multiple or single purchases, a sale for a span, or connecting to a specific event.

9. Devise a strategy to attract eyeballs- The strategy is to attract- create desire- tell benefit, evoke action. Every pin should have the power to stop, pull and make the viewer go for the product – or recall.

10. Don’t forget PIN SEO- Optimisation is needed for pins also like any other digital vehicle- hence key words are center stage for every pin.

11. Simplify- simplify- simplify- The entire pin has to tell the story in one go - do not puzzle the viewer, make it lucid yet intriguing.

12. Filter your audience and target in the pin- There is no point in making a generalized pin that attracts all- what’s the use if it is not relevant to 80% of the viewers who don’t need it- e.g. an aftershave lotion is needed by adult males- why attract women, children who are not buyers. Let the pin in the first go to reach the guys who want it- and tell them the benefit.

13. Pl makes it a pleasant experience- Let them not be serious and gloomy like some art films or festival films. Here we are selling dreams- a make-believe world. Pins are like TVCS or FM ads – they don’t have to depress you- after all, it is the new-age form of advertising- it has to raise your aspirations for a better, happier life. 

14. Finally make it easy to shop- After you have won the heart of the viewer, he/she may want to buy the product. Make the link to purchase easy to reach.
