Hey Guys!

I am using my Pinterest account to help bring more traffic to the Etsy shop that I have. Does anyone have any tips or advice for me? I am just starting out! I've been on Pinterest for years, but never with a business account.

Thank you!

Hey folks,

@PinterestGabby thanks for tagging.

Here are my tips for you Sara, @stilwell_sara

Your pins related to your listed products will drive the most relevant traffic to your shop.

Pins like these appeal to the audience. Seeing your product on someone gives them an idea of it in use.
If possible, try to tell a story through your pins. Storytelling pins are easy to relate to and capture people’s imagination.
Pin regularly. You need to be present in the mind of your audience, and pinning periodically is the key. Make sure to at least pin twice a day. However, don’t overdo with pinning. It may backfire, and your followers may spam you.
Use catchy captions for your pins and always keep your keyword game on point.

Hi @stilwell_sara

Jumping right in here! I'm also curious to learn some tips on using Pinterest to drive traffic to Etsy. I have set up my shop a few months back, and it's my understanding that many shop owners use Pinterest to bring traffic to their stores. However, I wonder if they enlist any specific strategies, use ads, or a combination of both.

@stilwell_sara and @kidpressroom -- I'm curious [from a community perspective] do we need to have some more content in the PBC about Pinterest x Etsy? I wonder if sharing more best practices or creating more threads about it would be helpful for the community!
