πŸ“ŒπŸ“Œ Pinterest Made Simple: Good news from Pinterest! 😊


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 matter for you and your Pinterest marketing? If you're investing your marketing dollars into a company to get more exposure for your brand or products, you want to know that it's healthy financially and making strides to continue to be appealing to investors. We look for user growth to increase (now 630 million!) and their investments in the product to be something that appeals to end users.

You don't have to keep up with, I'll keep up with it here for you.

I'm thankful for the routine after a very odd summer. A few things I want to tell you: I'm playing around with...
