Two Weeks of Using Tailwind for Pinterest Automation
Hi everybody,
A couple of weeks ago I asked the community about Social media automation. I was recomended Tailwind and decided to give it a try. They have a 30 day free trail and after a few days I upgraded becuase I saw the potential.
How it works...
Its really good and have seen huge improvements just after two weeks. I spent the first couple of days setting it up, setting a posting schedule, addind tribes and getting a month ahead on posts (15 pins per day).
It analyses when your posts get the most activity and creates a scedule. You can adapt this to you wants and needs.
Each day is easy...
It took me a couple of days to set it up, adding tribes and getting ahead on scheduling, but now its a pice of cake.
Now that it is set up there isnt much I do apart from log in and check the tribes. Tribes works by sharing eachothers posts. A bit like the comment swap here at WA, except they may gat shared by people that have big communities.
I log in every morning and look at who has shared my pins and return the favor. I also have it for instagram and am seeing great imporvements here too.
Here are some of my Pinterest stats...
I have only shared 6 of my pins but to many different tribes. As you can see... In a week or so I have reached nearly 150,000 people!! And I really only log into it for about half an hour in the morning and have not been doing this consistently.
For a couple of weeks this is imprssive. I also spent a week not logging into it. But the past couple of days I have been logging in consistently in the morning.
There are different price plans...
I went for the combined unlimited one which is the most exspensive but it was also the best deal. Mine was 600 for the year but there are much cheaper options.
Check it out! And if you have questions, just drop them below.
UPDATE FROM ROUGHLY 24 HOURS LATER:
My reach has grown from about 150k to 500+k... IN 24 HOURS!!!!! My monthly views jumed up about 4k last night. Cant wait to see todays jump!

Awesomely impressive Ecocatherine, way to go, and keep up the great work you are doing. Success is really here to stay. Keep on doing the right thing. All the best for the future.
Best Regards,

Nice work Catherine!
The next metric worth monitoring is the amount of traffic you get from this in Google Search Console. Jay covered this in a Live event training on this in his recent series.
Well done! John
Thank you John, yeah I saw that. I'm excited! I haven't been posting any reviews so I better get to work because the next step will be watching how the traffic converts.
Exciting times for you Catherine
The key is getting the traffic and it sounds like you have it coming from multiple channels - Bing, Google, Pinterest & your Instagram is very good! too.
I think we all enjoy reading of your success :-)
Thank you, I hope so. My traffic is currently pretty low. But I am focussing mainly on sharing other people oins for now to build up my Pinterest traffic. I am adding my pins slowly so hopefully this will bring traffic to my site over time.
Do you thing I should be looking at how to convert traffic from social media instead? Do you have any recommendations on where to start with this?
Thank you John!

Thanks for sharing Catherine. I have just started to use Pinterest and Tailwind and this was very informative about the combination of the two tools- I have pinned some 3 or 4 pins to Pinterest just to get started. I have not tried tribes yet. Will do so during the weekend.

I would recomend joing as many tribes as your subscription permit. There are limits unless you have the unlimited option, so choose wisely.
Then you can schedule your own pins as drafts and to tribes
Ok, I will follow your advice. Thank you😊
You can also unjoin tribes if they are not successful and sigh up to more successful ones
Yes, taht is a very good advice. Seek out the tribes that work out the best. :-)
