Wow Malik's message got me so emotional! This is why I love creating on Pinterest.

@mycancerchic Malik's message was so inspiring! “Creators needed something…. different.” Definitely one of my favorite Pinterest Presents moments. ✨

I'm so excited about checkout! I remember "buyable Pins" and I think it'll be huge for selling on Pinterest.

I'm unclear about the catalog API. How is that different from what we have already?  And are Idea Pins available for promoting, or do you need a special "partnership" still?

I always come for the announcements and am rarely disappointed!

@PinterestJazmin @mycancerchic I couldn’t agree more. Lisa

@PinterestJazmin I really enjoyed - I am asking some of the same questions as @alisammeredith especially re Idea Pins.

I liked the Sage owner's comment that businesses need to change and adapt quickly. I think it's the death of a brand for the creator to not adjust to the times. We don't have to change who we are and what we stand for but just integrate.

Don't know about that apple/walnut/date cake for a puppy. 😄 Seems like it would have problems chewing nuts!

I think all of these features mentioned can be very useful:

• catalogue upload
• shopping ads
• collection ads
• check-out on Pinterest.

Malik's comment that today creators need something different also resonated with me. My fav creator that was highlighted is (I tried to use the dopa word here but it was removed by Community Guidelines?) -dressing designer. Colors rock!

Overall, I enjoyed the presentation.

This event was by far the best I've attended virtually.  It was engaging, informative and I even got emotional like Anna @mycancerchic mentioned above.  Mr. Malik really made me stop and think about all the good Pinterest has done and how much more it is going to do.  I LOVED IT ALL!!

Thanks @PinterestJazmin for starting this thread.

I was inspired in large part by the mission and starting to really see the vision so felt all presenters made the story stick. 

For years my favorite Pinterest feature has been my own predictability from my own data. I used to think Pinterest largest mistake was not screaming what is now Pinterest Predicts from the mountaintops. It´s Gold!

My advertising strategy was very specific and ROAS ridiculously low here as a result of how I tested. I would advertise here but also elsewhere based on Pinterest trends (sorry! :))I honestly think advertisers like me are driving the changes. We are going to have to approach differently and I could not be more excited!

My excitement and learning is about channel management. When I figure out how to engage Creators here, create that strategy and budget all inclusively with people and a platform that share our values here at Idea Chíc, it could become our top channel to deliver part of our purpose, profitably.   David

Thanks for this thread @PinterestJazmin !

I’m a huge fan of Pinterest Presents and have been following all of them since the very first online event. 

I love how recharged and inspired each and every event makes me feel. 

Today’s event was filled with gold. The very first thing was when Ben Silbermann talked about ROI as return on inspiration. It’s hard to explain the ROI of Pinterest and not everyone understands the power of inspiration. But it makes so much sense!

I enjoyed watching Visha Kudhail talking about the concept of brand safety and Pinterest being and oasis of positivity. 

All speakers were brilliant and how could I not love Tan France?!

I’m excited to see the new features being rolled out!
