This Week's Podcast

First, Pinterest has removed Idea Pins from some accounts.

And some accounts that had the new version of Pin formats are now seeing the old formats. I have no idea what is happening but we're still going to press ahead talking about video on Pinterest this week.

Why?

Because you need to create awesome video content for Pinterest.

Yes, it can be repurposed but you have to think about the user to make it really work. To get the tips listen to this week's pod.

Pinterest Marketing Tip

Let's talk Pinterest changes.

Right now I have Idea Pins back as an option on my account. I haven't had that for 9 months. Our other clients have lost the option.

I also have collages on my accounts. It's super fun to play around with but not useful yet as a marketing tool.

That being said, we're seeing some glitches happening on the platform. One of my team members couldn't even log in last week and I got a blank page.

The dust will settle, just keep pinning.
