📌 SAVE THIS FOR TIPS ON ANALYZING YOUR PINTERES 📌 SAVE THIS FOR TIPS ON ANALYZING YOUR PINTEREST STATS⠀⠀
⠀⠀
I get a lot of questions about what entrepreneurs should be focusing on when marketing their business on Pinterest.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
These are some of my favorite tips:⠀⠀
⠀⠀
1️⃣ FOCUS ON CLICKS⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Yes, clicks are one of the most important things to measure. Traffic is the priority here... not impressions or monthly viewers because these are the people *actually* going to your website!⠀
⠀⠀
2️⃣ ZOOM OUT⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Before freaking out about traffic dips or changes in your account, try and zoom out your analytics and look at the bigger picture. Check your traffic over the last 6 months and year over year. You might be surprised at what you find!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
3️⃣ USE GOOGLE ANALYTICS⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Google Analytics is the most accurate way to measure your growth on Pinterest. It’s more accurate than the analytics inside Pinterest itself!⠀⠀
⠀⠀
One of my favorite tools for tracking Pinterest growth within Google Analytics is the Pinterest Dashboard add-on by @heykristiehill ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
👉🏼 It gives you access to so much information all in one place like:⠀⠀
⠀⠀
✅ Pinterest traffic (and compared to other traffic sources)⠀⠀
✅ Tailwind Tribes traffic⠀⠀
✅ Tailwind Smart Loop traffic⠀⠀
✅ Promoted Pins information⠀⠀
⠀⠀
...and more!⠀⠀

Your content marketing strategy is effective when Your content marketing strategy is effective when you're creating with PURPOSE. ⚡⁠

𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙖 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣 𝙗𝙚𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙞𝙩.⁠
⁠
Are you trying to get people to follow you? Join your email list? Buy from you? Hire you? What are your goals? 💭⁠
⁠
Because let's face it. Without a goal or purpose, you're just wasting your time.⁠
⁠
Focus on serving your audience, WOW them, answer their questions, and provide massive value!⁠
⁠
Make sure your content fits the vision of your business.⁠
⁠
Now let's get to writing! ✍🏻
Let's talk about shiny object syndrome. What is it Let's talk about shiny object syndrome. What is it exactly? ✨⁠
⁠
Maybe you:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ Have a million business ideas but nothing really gets done⁠
2️⃣ You've enrolled hundreds of online courses just for them to collect dust on your computer⁠
3️⃣ You keep investing in fancy tools and software you think will get you to where you want to be⁠
⁠
This might sound familiar. ⁠
⁠
I'm not ashamed to admit I still struggle with this as a multi-passionate entrepreneur. I think we all do at some point.⁠
⁠
But when it starts affecting you and leaving you feeling stuck about your next move, 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘺.⁠
⁠
So remember:⁠
⁠
💡 Tune out the noise⁠
💡 New ISN'T always better⁠
💡 Ask yourself "does this fit the bigger picture?"⁠
💡 Sleep on it before making big decisions and taking action⁠
⁠
Everything we do should be centered around our big goals and our WHY. You don't have to keep up with all the latest trends.⁠
⁠
Agreed?⁠

What's up with trying to be perfect? 🙅🏻‍♀️⁠
⁠
I think progress and just getting things DONE is way better than trying to be perfect all the time.⁠
⁠
Taking messy action and getting out there is an achievement in itself.⁠
⁠
I'm a recovering perfectionist, that's for sure.⁠
⁠
I had an idea for my business in the back of my mind for a year before I even acted on it... because I THOUGHT it needed to be absolutely perfect. 🤦🏻‍♀️⁠
⁠
That's a year wasted on just thinking! Instead of putting myself out there and just doing it no matter how scared or nervous I was about the outcome.⁠
⁠
You don't need to be perfect. Nothing in this world is perfect. 🚫⁠
⁠
Is there something you're holding back on because the perfectionist in you is standing in your way? 💭⁠

⁠
We're celebrating this week because I've officially been working full-time in my business for TWO YEARS.⁠ 🎉⁠
⁠
Time flies so freakin' fast... how did this happen so quickly?!⁠
⁠
I seriously cannot believe that something that started out as a hobby back in college has been able to FUND MY LIFE for the last two years.⁠
⁠
I'm so thankful. so grateful. ⁠
⁠
Just soaking it all in 💖⁠

If you're an entrepreneur too, tell me: Are you full-time or a side-hustler? And how long? ⬇️

⁠
There are so many things that go into this but a lot of viral content has a few of the same things in common.⁠
⁠
Make sure your content:⁠
⁠
💖 Evokes emotion — that's content that is funny, inspirational, heartwarming, etc.⁠
⁠
💖 Is shareable — something that would make people want to instantly share across their platforms or with their inner circle.⁠
⁠
💖 Is relatable — content that makes your audience go "wow, that is literally ME."⁠
⁠
Creating GOOD content that's valuable AND your audience can relate to is key. 🗝️⁠
