All About Pinterest
{this post may contain affiliate links, see disclosure for details}
I know when a lot of people think of Pinterest they think of crafts and DIY projects. And while it is jam packed full of crafty information, Pinterest can be a HUGE resource for your blog or business. You can really target a specific audience and essentially market and advertise for your blog/business for free. A lot of people, well most people (including myself back in the day) actually think all they need to do to be successful on Pinterest is make a cute pin and add in a few key words and BOOM! Your Pin will go viral. Sadly that is not the case, and I learned that pretty fast.
Here’s the thing
I have probably wasted (yes I said wasted) over $200+ on courses that I didn’t learn a thing from. Everything in that course I already knew. And that sucks. Especially when you are a new blogger and you really don’t have a ton of expendable income to spend on courses. Why did this happen? I really didn’t do much research!
You want to invest in a course you are going to learn from, grow from. Because the Social Media industry is constantly changing and growing, which means we need to constantly be growing and learning new information to stay up to date!
And that can be exhausting AND expensive. Just because a course is expensive doesn’t mean you are going to learn a lot from it, but it also doesn’t mean you won’t learn a lot from it. You HAVE to do your research! Look at stats, read reviews. Know that what you are purchasing is a good investment.
Do yourself a favor and invest in a Pinterest Course
I am learning new information EVERY SINGLE DAY! Which means I still have plenty of valuable information to teach and share with you! That is why when you buy Pinterest Ninja you get all future updates for FREE! Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I am opposed to making more money, but I know I will be much more successful in the long run if I can help YOU be successful! Without going broke!
So do yourself a favor and check out Pinterest Ninja, and if you don’t purchase my course, do yourself a favor and purchase some sort of course. That is how I got where I am today. It’s not like they taught me marketing your business on Pinterest in college. I had to learn on my own! If I could go back to my very first couple months of blogging I would have started investing in courses sooner! Because it shouldn’t have to take you over a year to really start making money with your blog!

PInterest still intimidates me. I think it’s high time I signed up for a course

A good Pinterest course is very helpful, particularly if it allows you ongoing access to information regarding the platform which seems to be constantly changing. Thanks for your insight and offering this course.

I’ve only just started to take Pinterest more seriously but all of the courses I’ve found so far cover the basics and not much else. I’ve found out a few lesser known Pinterest tips through podcasts but a bit more knowledge couldn’t hurt. I’ll have to make a note of your course!

Getting a handle on Pinterest (by taking a course) made a huge difference for me! I nearly tripled my traffic and I never worry about going down to zero if I need a break from writing. I just make sure to do some pinning so that I’m still getting visibility. Awesome advice!

I’ve been thinking about taking a blogging course for awhile. It’s so hard to choose with all the options out there and “great” reviews. I can totally see the benefit of investing in my blog though, I just have to make the plunge!

Pinterest is a platform I have such a hard time getting into! I’m working on it, since I know it’ll be good for my blog, but for some reason it’s not something I’m naturally drawn to.

I’ve been considering taking some courses for a while now. But as you say, you can waste so much money and not learn anything! Definitely will check out yours! Time to start investing in more knowledge to add to the blog!

I agree with your post 100% ! I was initially put off from pinterest but after taking a couple of good courses the medium is working soooo well for me ! Its about building authority with the Pinterest algo and getting that first momentum!

I could really need some help with Pinterest. It’s like I’m spending hours and hours each week, pin hundreds of pins but the traffic is still not even close where I’d like it to have… Will definitely check out the course, thanks!
