Whether you are a full-time blogger, a business owner, a side hustle, or something you fit around everything else in life, there’s a lot to do to grow your blog. Researching and writing the blog posts, creating graphics, and taking or sourcing photos and then there’s all the promotion and marketing strategies. We all know that Pinterest is key to helping drive traffic to our blogs but sometimes there just isn’t enough time.
That’s why you might want to consider working with a Pinterest manager (like me!!)
Here are a few ideas why you might want to hire a Pinterest manager and what kind of things they can do for you.
Saves you time
Let’s face it, who doesn’t need more time in their life? As an online business owner, it would be great to add an extra six hours onto the twenty-four but being that we can’t and self-duplication isn’t possible, then we need to make the most of the time we have. For bloggers, that can mean outsourcing some of the tasks involved with building and growing the business, and top of the list is Pinterest.
Pinterest is one of those sites that can quietly steal a bit of your time. It isn’t quite the time suck that Facebook is by the time you catch up with your friends, see your sister’s latest baby photos and chuckle at the almost-statutory funny cat video that always seems to appear in your feed. But it can still drain your time, especially if you start admiring the latest storage ideas for the bedroom or checking out the latest recipes for your favourite kitchen gadget (that’s the Instant Pot for me).
Our brains naturally want to wander around and see what’s going on and no matter how dedicated you are, sometimes concentration takes a short vacation and we don’t get as much done as we want. Enter the Pinterest Manager who can take on the task of Pinterest, get stuff done, and save you from planning another bedroom makeover and an argument with your partner.
Maximises your efforts
One of the things about Pinterest is that it is like SEO – there are no quick fixes and it takes time to start and see results. With changing algorithms, it is something of a chess match, making a move and then another to get where you want to go. This can be time-consuming, figuring it out and putting it all into practice.
Pinterest Managers are a bit obsessed with Pinterest, even if they don’t realise it. They are fascinated by the changes, love to spot trends in Pin design or read about the latest big change (such as the introduction of hashtags after years of being a no-no). This means you get maximum return on your Pinterest account without having to learn all of this yourself meaning you can focus on the areas of the business that you really love.
Overcome Pinterest overwhelm
When I was chatting with bloggers in setting up this service, one thing was simple – lots of people find Pinterest overwhelming. There are a lot of moving parts and they often change, there are a ton of things to remember and because it is a long game, it can sometimes seem like a lot of work for nothing. I mean, all the other social media networks have horizontal images but Pinterest needs vertical ones – yet another job. And what do you put in your Pin?
I get it. I’m like that when it comes to coding – all that HTML and CSS stuff makes my eyes cross with confusion. But Pinterest I get and that means you can concentrate on building your website and I can handle the Pinterest stuff for you. A winning partnership. You can focus on your digital marketing efforts and having a strong online presence for your social media marketing – and I can handle Pinterest!
What can a Pinterest manager do?
The great thing about Pinterest management is that there are lots of tasks we can do for people that allow them to work within their budget and get the services they need. Examples of services include:
- Setting up a new account
- Creating a keyword rich profile
- Getting your site verified
- Getting Rich Pins for your site
- Setting up important boards including a blog board or Best of board
- Pinning to boards
- Finding and applying to group boards
- Setting up Tailwind to schedule pins
- Run Tailwind Tribes & Smart Loop
- Find new pins to add to your boards on a daily basis
- Tidy up existing boards
- Make sure your board descriptions have the right keywords in them
- Create effective pin titles and a pin description for each new pin
- Help show you what analytics to check on the platform and with Google Analytics to see if your Pinterest efforts are working (often with a monthly report)
See what I mean? These are some of the main services you can choose from when you hire a Pinterest manager and if you want something specific, then we can always chat!
So, if you find Pinterest a time suck, don’t get the site or just don’t have the time to dedicate to it to get the results you need, then consider hiring a Pinterest manager. Then you can focus your attention where you want and you can start to see the benefits of Pinterest at the same time.
