How can you post engaging pins? Can we let you in on a secret? It’s all about planning! Are you ready to learn the secret to effortlessly posting on Pinterest? It is a lot simpler than you think. 

How To Effortlessly Post On Pinterest

Yes, what happens behind the scenes determines how well your content does when you post on social platforms. Of course, no one can predict what will be a viral hit. With that said, planning allows you to create consistent content. This is where the effort comes in. The work you do before it’s time to post on Pinterest will make posting feel like a breeze. 

The first strategy, plan and schedule. 

  • Creating content is the fun part. Brainstorm creative ways to engage with your audience. Put together a storyboard. Write down a list of content you would like to share. Don’t forget to exist content already on your website or blog that’s evergreen.
  • Be sure, to include your goals for each month. Would you like to boost sales or increase audience engagement and growth? Also, include what you would like your pinboard to look like, is there a theme? Would you like a consistent colour palette? A consistent theme helps with brand recognition.
  • Once you have a plan set in motion, it’s important to stay consistent. When you use a pin scheduler you can upload videos and photos to your Tailwind account. In addition, you can maintain overall brand consistency when preset your fronts, colour, and logo.

The Second Strategy, stay organized.

  • Label pins and images to help you plan pins for the week stress-free! This will ensure that your brand messaging is consistent and cohesive. You can add, remove and rearrange your content when you are ready. Another great tool on Tailwind is that you can create pins directly on the platform since you have access to great templates, layouts, and stock images.
  • Write your captions and add the URL to each pin. Ask your audience a question or tell them why what you are posting would be of interest to them. Your caption and URL will be saved on Tailwind. Pre-planning captions/titles/descriptions and having the URL ready to go will save you time when you would like to post. You can brainstorm during the pre-planning stages when you put together your storyboard. 

The Last Strategy, post and engage.

Since you have done the planning, strategizing, and organizing. Posting will be easy. It kind of makes you feel like a social media pro!

  • When it’s time to post your pre-scheduled pin, Tailwind’s SmartSchedule will help you by picking the times when your audience will be most engaged. Make sure evergreen content stays green forever by taking of SmartLoop, a feature that allows you to re-circulate pins.
  • Forever Evergreen: reshare seasonal content. Don’t forget that all content is good content from your website. Don’t forget about it after you have posted it and pinned it once. It should be shared continuously in a creative way. With Tailwinds seasonal loops you can circulate relevant pins during the best time of year. This allows you to share and circulate your best content on Pinterest. Pretty effortless, right?! Don’t forget to engage with your audience. Comment, pin, and follow other creators.

Now that you know a few secrets that will help you post on Pinterest with ease, you can spend more time connecting with your audience.
