Pinterest picking up speed

A little over a month ago, on my adventures in trying to do everything at once, I stumbled upon a course about leveraging Pinterest for sales and blogging.

I thought, "Yeah, that's probably smart", and fired up my at least 5 years old account that had been sitting practically unused since I started it. (Apparently old accounts might hold more weight, so to speak, so I thanked the lucky stars I wanted to try all social media when I was younger.)

I converted my account into a business account and was met with some nice, flat stats. I started here:

291 measly viewers and a handful of people engaging with age-old pins. I had work to do.

So I worked. I followed the guide and had it all up and running within a day. My site was verified, I had a profile picture with my little ol' face in it, I had a keyword-rich description, I rooted out all boards that were irrelevant to my niche, and I started experimenting with Tailwind and designing pins.

Along the way I also took the time to design my board covers for uniformity and branding, as well as putting in relevant descriptions of the boards so more people would discover them.

Okay, ready?

Here's the result a month later:

Woohoo!

Haven't made a single sale (I haven't even tried yet), people are bouncing out of my site left and right, but something is happening – it's so rewarding!

You're the only ones I know that get this stuff, so I had to share. I feel good about this.

This is so much fun.

Thanks for reading!
