September 9, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. I'm sporting a sweater, my last kid is starting his junior year of high school, and I busted out the canned pumpkin yesterday. (BTW -- this bread is epic -- save the pin and come back here to keep reading!) I even made stew last week. It's almost fall! Last weekend I helped one of my best friends with her daughter's wedding. My other best friend and my mom went to town on bouquets, boutonnieres, table...

September 2, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. I'm writing this on August 31, listening to Taylor Swift's August. I can't believe it's the end of summer, but frankly, I'm ready for it. My kids are rolling back into town from being gone all summer, the backpacks dusted off, family meetings commencing, and work schedules tightened up. I'm thankful for the routine after a very odd summer. A few things I want to tell you: I'm playing around with...

August 5, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. Our team has been investing a lot of time into Amazon/Pinterest connections over the last 6 months. Working with beta clients, testing out new theories, and genuinely loving how we can unlock new income streams for clients and our community. I'm not talking about these claims that say "I make $14K a month from Pinterest in just 30 days". I think those are bogus and really good for YouTube thumbnails. When...

July 15, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. It's summer, and we want to make these emails quick and easy for you to read through, click on links, or save them for later. (Hint -- Pinterest boards make great places to save links. 😉) We're planning to start a new series for the podcast called "Pinterest Wins". We know that Pinterest traffic ebbs and flows. Algorithms change, and glitches happen. But somewhere some people are having success on Pinterest....

July 8, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. It's summer, and we want to make these emails quick and easy for you to read through, click on links, or save them for later. This is a smaller version of what we normally send out during the year...but not less impactful! Fun fact. It was 12 years ago today that I found myself sitting in a hospital room with my daughter when she was 8 years old. I had just started SPM in January of 2014 and realized I needed...

June 24, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. It's summer, and we want to make these emails quick and easy for you to read through, click on links or save them for later. (Hint -- Pinterest boards make great places to save links. 😉) Do you notice how people around North America say "Pinterest" differently? Some say "pin-ter-ist", others "pin-trest", or "pin-er-est". How do you pronounce it? This Week's Simple Pin Podcast Listen again: Pinterest Quality...

May 27, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. Last week, we discovered a weird Pinterest glitch that had happened over the weekend. Failed pins in Tailwind, weird analytics, and then suddenly, on Tuesday, it was back to normal. A user in the SPM Insiders community lost her boards completely! Feels very on brand for May. If you had some funkiness with Pinterest, then you know it wasn't your problem...it was the platform's. Let's talk about why this...

May 20, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. For those feeling like they are swimming (probably drowning) in all the things -- deadlines, kid activities, planning for summer, end-of-year parties, etc. I see you. I recorded this week's YouTube video 3 weeks ago. Totally forgot to send it to the editors. When I went to upload to YT and make sure it was ready for this week, it was nowhere to be found....except in the TRASH of my computer. Why did I do...

May 6, 2026 Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Pinterest marketing education. My husband said Tuesday morning, "Whoa! Pinterest stock jumped for the first time in months." Showing my smarts, I told him it was earnings call day, and it must be good news. Yep, growth is up, earnings are up, and the stock market likes this report. Is this NVIDIA territory? No way, but an increase is good here. Pinterest is clawing its way back after a terrible few quarters on the market. Why does this...
