What people think Pinterest strategy is…

Published 4 months ago • 1 min read

Hey Reader,

Let’s talk about something I see all the time:

People say they’re “doing Pinterest.”
​
But what they really mean is this:

  • They post blog graphics with the same title and text overlay every time
  • They skip keyword research because “it looks fine”
  • They pin a few things here and there—no board strategy, no rhythm, just vibes

​
But here’s the thing:

That’s not a Pinterest strategy. That’s posting and hoping.

Real Pinterest strategy looks different.

It includes things like:
✅ SEO for Pinterest (yes, it matters)
✅ A creative strategy for Pins—not just branding, but conversion
✅ Boards built with purpose: tied to your offers, search intent, and user journey
✅ A consistent pinning rhythm—no more all-at-once bursts followed by weeks of silence

I had a student named Leslie who was stuck in that first category—she was pinning when she remembered to, and nothing was really landing. No keyword plan. No structure. No results.

Once she joined my program, everything changed.

Leslie went from haphazard pinning to:
➡️ Growing impressions
➡️ Steady clicks to her website
➡️ And 5–10 new email signups per week (sometimes more)

The difference?
​
She finally had a system—and a strategy.

You don’t need more templates. You need direction.
​
Inside my program, we build real Pinterest strategy like this every day—one step at a time.

Talk soon,
Heather

P.S. I'm in Paris this week and it's giving me so much to think about when it comes to beautifully designed marketing and graphics. If you're feeling stuck get out of your normal and get inspired.

Hello Reader, I want to build the kind of emails, products, and content that actually help you—not just what I think you need. And the easiest way to do that? Ask you directly. So, I put together a short survey (it’ll take about 3-5 minutes). Your answers will guide what I create next—from digital products to free content to the emails that land in your inbox. And to make it fun: 👉 Everyone who fills it out will be entered into a random drawing. 3 of winners will get free access to my...

Hey Reader, A few years ago, I walked away from “normal” work—the kind where someone tells you what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. That decision set me on a path to building a business that gives me freedom, growth, and income on my terms. Since then, I’ve supported over 800 students inside my membership.Many of them are Pinterest Managers, and over time, the same questions kept hitting my inbox from them: ➡ “Heather, how do I get more (and better) Pinterest management clients?”➡...
