Rich Pins: What They Are and How They Benefit Your Business

Image
Building boards and pins will take time. But it can be fun and creative and allow you to use color and text that you cannot use in regular posts. When you are ready you can take your pins to the next level. Rich Pins are enhanced versions of regular pins on Pinterest that automatically pull extra information from your website to the pin itself. This added data updates in real-time, providing users with more context and making the pin more interactive. Remember, unlike browsers like Google and Edge that focus on search and information retrieval, Pinterest is a visual discovery platform designed to help users find inspiration and ideas through images and curated content, often driving creative projects and product exploration.

Image
Each morning a friend and I send a meme or image to each other. Usually, it is about the day of the week or something about coffee. I like Pinterest because there are fun, creative images to use.  As a visual-leaning person, I enjoy looking at images and have created multiple boards, highlighting the guests on my former podcasts, writing prompts, and more. But I have not used it much further than pretty pics representing activities in which I am engaged.  A recent episode of The Copywriter Club podcast discussed how to market your business on Pinterest.
