Branding is a word that is easily thrown around. We often reference it when we talk about creating pins. “Make sure you’re pins are branded”.

So much has happened in 2024 with the massive Google Shift, AI pulling content from creators and so much more. Jillian Leslie and I are chatting on her podcast about Pinterest, blogging, and our current online economy. It was such a good episode that I’ve decided to share it here with you.
Before we dive into this episode let’s talk about 2025. If you’re looking to hand off any part of your Pinterest marketing, whether ads or organic, let’s get you set up now so you’re ready to go in 2021.
Just recently, we worked with one of our clients to leverage trending topics on Pinterest. Within two months, that new pin had 23K saves and is in her top 3 for driving traffic.

Let’s talk about pivots. With all the changes this year I wanted to talk with someone who had pivoted their business and started to focus on a new audience. What was their experience and when did they know it was time to pivot?

Collages have been a feature on Pinterest for a while but it’s primarily been for users, until now. In the latest Pinterest Presents they talked about how collages can be leveraged for product sales. In this podcast I’ll dive into our experience with collages and where we think they will go in the future. Also a backdoor into creating them and linking your products.
If you’re an e-commerce brand that is struggling to figure out how to get a plan for your Pinterest marketing, our team can help. Two options – you can hire our management team to take over all aspects of pinning, creating images, etc. We can also run your ads. OR if you’re the type that needs to wrap your brain around a plan then you can hire us for a one-hour eCommerce consult call.
The collage pin that started it all.

There used to be some tension with Etsy and Pinterest but more and more these days we see Etsy pins showing up when you search a particular product. A sign the two are on good terms. So if you’re an etsy seller what do you need to do to make sure you’re listing is attractive and you’re getting in front of the right people?

Ads make me a little nervous sometimes. I have a strong fear I’m going to set it up wrong. But while watching Pinterest presents I got super excited about their new AI Pinterest Ad tool – Performance Plus. Here are my thoughts, review, and what I learned from just setting up an ad.
https://business.pinterest.com/pinterest-performance-plus/
As you’ll hear in this episode one of our recommendations is if you dive into Performance Plus ads you should have someone to consult while you run ads. Book your consult call with our Pinterest Ads team to get started.

It’s been quite a wild ride for creators. With the google change last fall, algorithms changing, and people seeing less traffic to their websites, it’s been a tough year. It’s important to share good stories but it’s also important to acknowledge these tough spots so we can start to begin to think about the changes we can make going forward. Today I want to share with you a special friend I met recently and have her share her story with you. What she experienced and how she is going to refocus going forward.
Intro - Call to Action:
Pinterest is different than all the other platforms you use to market your business. If you have listened to the podcast or watched any of our videos you may have already heard me say that.
But if you haven’t, Pinterest is different. People over there are cold meaning they don’t know you, they are interested in their own world, they don’t doom scroll and they are ready to buy or engage once they know you have something amazing.
If you’re ready to dive into Pinterest marketing for your business, all of it or just part of it, book a call with our team to figure out how we can serve you – whether it’s monthly management, a deep clean of your account, creating images or getting your Pinterest account started, we’re ready for you. simplepinemedia.com/services.
If you’re interested in consults, you don’t need to book a call with us. Simply scroll down below in the app or here on YouTube and you can grab your time and pay for your consult all at once.

We love questions at Simple Pin Media. We know that each person is entering into their Pinterest marketing journey at different times and in different businesses. But one thing we have figured out is that if one industry has the question, they all do. So to save you the time I’m answering some of our most frequently asked questions on our lives and teachings.
Intro - Call to Action: Before diving in I’m going to take a stab at something. You’re a business owner. You are either already diving deep into Pinterest marketing or you’re doing a dance around the edge. You’re wondering if a course is right for you, probably because you’ve heard about some really popular ones out there. But you don’t know.
Do you have the time? Do you have the money?
If a course is not for you and you’re looking for more hands-on help, our team can provide that whether it’s a one-time consult for ads or non-paid marketing or full management. We can help ease the confusion and provide a clear roadmap to success.
If you’re looking to outsource or get help book a call with our team. Go to simplepinmedia.com/services.

For years I’ve wanted something that could track and rank keywords on Pinterest. I’ve seen some people try and then it falls flat. There’s another new tool on the scene that sounds promising. Because of that hopeful feeling I have I figured I would interview the founder, Tony Hill, and dig deep on the idea for creating it and if the tool functions as we would hope.
Intro - Call to Action:
If you’re new to the podcast or you’ve been listening for a while, Simple Pin Media is first and foremost an agency.

In our last Pinterest training I mentioned at the end that we are always open to topics and ideas you would like us to cover in the podcast. A reader sent in this great question about how to use Pinterest to build a content calendar. I’m going to walk through some examples of how I would set it up and hopefully that gets your wheels turning.

We often talk about creating a connection from the pin to your website for the pinner. Why? Because this tells them they clicked on the right pin and they are in the right place. That’s important because it increases the chances of them reading more, looking around, signing up, or buying. Today we’re going to talk with Madison from Grace and Vine Studios about creating a website that has beautiful branding and a cohesive message.

I met a guy at a conference where we were a sponsor and his company was a sponsor. We got to talking about his business, centered on accounting and taxes for creators, and it hit me. This is not your parents' CPA. Nate Coughran talks with us today about what you need to look for when you hire a CPA and it can’t be just because your parents know a “guy”.
Today’s episode is sponsored by Cookie Finance. You’ll hear more about Cookie Finance throughout this episode. At SPM we choose sponsors because we believe they have great tools for our audience. Accounting and tax services are essential for small businesses and choosing the right one can mean you sleep better at night and know that once you hit tax season you’re confident all the i’s are dotted and the t’s are crossed. Thank you to Cookie Finance for sponsoring this episode.
