New video: affiliate Pins that don’t feel like ads


Hi Reader,

I’m not sure about you, but I’m really sick of advertising.

And honestly? That’s part of why so many affiliate Pins on Pinterest feel off.

➡️ They look like ads.
➡️ They read like ads.
➡️ And people can feel that immediately.

So in today’s new YouTube video, I’m breaking down how to make affiliate Pins that feel more natural to Pinterest without making them look flat, awkward, or overly salesy.

Inside the video, I’m walking through:

  • why some product Pins feel like a hard sell right away
  • how to choose a stronger angle for the Pin
  • what your title, image, and text overlay should actually do
  • how to make an affiliate product feel like a useful idea instead of just… a product ad

I also use real examples like keyboards, mics, tripods, and desk setup products so you can actually see what I mean.

If you’re using affiliate links on Pinterest or want to, this one will help you make Pins people are a lot more likely to actually engage with.

Talk soon,

P.S. If you watch it, hit reply and tell me which kind of affiliate product you want to make Pins for next. I’m curious. Maybe I can give feedback.

Hi Reader, I think one of the biggest reasons affiliate Pins underperform on Pinterest is because they feel like ads too fast. And people can feel that immediately. They can feel when a Pin was made to push a product instead of helping them find something useful, inspiring, or relevant to what they’re already looking for. That’s usually where things go wrong. A lot of affiliate Pins lead with: the product name the product image the fact that it’s linked But not the actual reason someone would...

Hi Reader, I dropped a new video today, and if you’ve ever felt like using ChatGPT is somehow helpful and annoying at the same time, this one is for you. Because here’s what I see a lot: People keep opening a fresh chat, pasting in the same giant block of instructions, and basically re-onboarding the bot every single time. And sure, that can work but it also gets clunky fast. So in this new video, I’m walking through the system I use instead. Not one magical prompt. Not some massive...

Hi Reader, Here’s what I see all the time: People are trying to make Pinterest work by collecting more tips, testing random advice, and tweaking pieces of their strategy without ever getting a clear picture of what actually matters most. That gets exhausting. Because the problem usually is not that you need more Pinterest information. It’s that you need a strategy you can actually follow. One that helps you know: what to focus on first what matters most for visibility how your content works...
