Leveraging Pinterest for Your Business - Interview with Emily Parsons

Wait, what?  🤔 We’re talking about Pinterest today? You got that right! We know we know, we’re Instagram for Business, but we came across the lovely Emily Parsons from @letsgetsocialagency and we knew we wanted to talk to the expert! To start, Pinterest is not the same platform you may be used to… what do we mean by that? Well, Pinterest isn’t just the place to find that amazing key lime pie recipe or home decor inspo. If you’re a business owner that sells products and or digital offerings, Pinterest, in addition to Instagram, is the place to be!Emily is the Founder and CEO of Let’s Get Social Agency. She and her business partner, Bri are passionate about helping e-commerce businesses scale with paid and organic Pinterest Marketing. We are thrilled to share this interview with you because we truly felt like the students in this episode. Here are a few things we dive into with Emily:What is the starting point for a businesses getting started with Pinterest?Is Pinterest a platform for all businesses?Is there a connection point between Pinterest and Instagram? Do they help grow each others following on each platform? If yes, how?How can we utilize Pinterest with a strategy?What are your Top 3 Tips that most people don’t know about to use Pinterest to grow your business?We have to say, Emily delivered! Some of the biggest takeaways we found were:Pinterest is not a social platform. It is a search engine.Creating fresh unique content to share will serve you better in your business rather than pinning others inspirational content.There’s such a thing as Pinterest Mindset - you’re either in the “I want to be inspired mode” or when your business hat is on, you should be in the “how can I inspire others?” mode. Consistency is key. And lastly, Pinterest is a SHOPPING platform. Say. No. More. To connect with Emily, check out @letsgetsocialagency on Instagram or online at www.letsgetsocialagency.com And BONUS: Access three months of group coaching when you join The Pin Method!JOIN HEREYou will receive access to 3 months of bi-monthly coaching and lifetime access to their private Facebook group. Check us out on Instagram @thesocial.focus @angela.s.doyon and @natcaronphoto JOIN INSTAGRAM FOR BUSINESS NOW! (the online course and community where you learn to scroll less and sell more!)We love and use Buzzsprout to host Instagram for Business Podcast and they have made it easy and seamless (plus their customer service is by far one of the best!)This site contains affiliate links to products.
