How Can You Market Your Business on Pinterest?

31 Flares 31 Flares ×

Are you wondering how you can promote your business on Pinterest without violating their terms or coming across spammy?

The same general rules apply as on any other social network or in life!

We don’t go out there and scream, “Come buy my stuff!” or “Hire me now!” to every single person we walk by on the street or connect with on Facebook.  So don’t do that on Pinterest, either.

Share things, like things, comment on things that aren’t your products or services.  Interact with the community.

Make what you share at least 80% about others.

With that in mind, here are some ways to share your business on Pinterest:

      Love these suggestions. The platform changes but the same rule applies:more about others and less about me..

      Thank you!

      Good information to have in case I ever decide to get hooked on Pinterest. So many friends are trying to get me to join, but I don’t know if it’s for me.

      Good suggestions, thank you. Think it comes down to just acting normal an use the site as intended – as a regular user and not just promoting whatever you have and do nothing else. It does look like a good resourse.

      I hesitated with pinterest but once I got on I can see advantages of sharing and am beginning to understand how to use to drive traffic to a site. But seems to take a lot of work to really integrate infographics into a post that would be pinnable. I’m sure it will become more natural with time. However, in the meantime there sure are some great finds and fun stuff to repin.

      Thanks for sharing another great infographic. We need clear explanations of each new thing that appears on the cyber landscape not only to understand it but to see how we fit in.

      Thank you for the article and for adding the Pinterest share button! I find lots of articles on Pinterest and then spend alot of time contacting the writers to ask if I can “pin it”. :-)
