đź“Ś Here's What You Might Be Doing Wrong on Pinterest
|
When I first started using Pinterest for my blog, I had no idea what to pin. I was posting random images and link them back to my posts and hoping something would stick. Spoiler alert: It didn’t. But after some time, I finally wrapped my head around the core concept that I had completely missed. Pinterest isn’t just a platform for pretty pictures. It’s a search engine. Yes, you may have already heard this, but something you might be doing wrong is not pinning what Pinterest users really want to see. If you’re not creating pins with your core audience in mind, you’re missing out on a massive opportunity to drive traffic and boost sales. 👉 The core concept of Pinterest is visual discovery. In other words, Pinterest helps people explore new ideas and organize visual content they find inspiring or helpful. It’s not just about browsing; it’s about discovering what’s next and saving it for later. And when it comes to who uses Pinterest the most, 70% of its core audience is made up of women, while Gen Z is the fastest-growing demographic, accounting for 42% of the global user base. Well, now here’s where it gets interesting: what should you pin to reach them? The short answer I can give you now is, it depends on your audience, niche, and goals. Your strategy should be personalized. And it’s not about quantity, it’s about making sure your pins hit the mark, and that made me reach my goal of getting around 3M monthly views. With all these things in mind, I’ve gathered 10 pin ideas that will help you make your Pinterest strategy feel more strategic, effective, and aligned with what your audience wants to see. ​Check out the full list of pin ideas here. I have a good feeling these ideas will make it clearer how to use Pinterest. Cheers, Minosh. |

An influencer named Alix Earle just did something most influencer brands can’t really do. She launched a skincare line in March. Made $1 million in just five minutes. Everything sold out in 10 hours. And no, it wasn’t because she has 14 million followers. It’s because she did the one thing most people are too scared to do when launching a product. She turned her biggest weakness into the conversation. Here’s the thing about influencer brands. Most of them don’t work out, and it’s not because...
Okay, you probably saw this already, right? That $3.99 lavender tote bag from Trader Joe’s went viral on TikTok and turned into a whole thing. People were lining up, stores had to set limits, and next thing you know, resale listings were popping up everywhere, like eBay, Etsy, you name it. So yeah, it looked like just a simple product, but that was not the real story. The thing is, the bag did not blow up just because it was limited. It blew up because people already cared. That is the part...
It was 2009, and that’s when Chrome launched. Google had many things they could’ve shown: tabs, security tools, settings, and all the other stuff it had. But instead, it led with one simple idea: speed. “The Fast Browser.” And that worked. They used this line over and over in different ads. It’s strong. But stop for a second and think about why all those features were not mentioned by Google. That reminded me of something a lot of business owners do by accident. They try to make their offer...
