Power Tips to Become a Pinterest Pro

After recently completing “The Art of Social Media” there were many points that stuck out to me. I am excited to share with you one of my favorites. If you use Pinterest frequently here are a few tips to help make your boards stand out and a lot easier to navigate.
 
Rotate Pinning on Your Pinterest Boards
It is very important to rotate throughout your various boards when pinning on Pinterest. This keeps your content exciting and relevant to your followers. Also, be sure to have no fewer than 10 pins are your boards are not going to be effective.

Use Secret Boards
You can use secret boards as a holding place for your favorite pins. Secret boards are also handy when you want to save images for a project or on a topic you don’t want the whole world to see. For example, various promotional techniques or planning preparations. I personally love saving gift ideas and party ideas on my secret boards.

Collaborate with Others
You can create a board and allow contributors to pin to it as well. To do so, edit your board and invite collaborators. This strategy is also very useful when completing a group project or brainstorming ideas with others. Joining a group board has also been known to significantly boost traffic, since you are pooling your reach with others.

Don’t Pin your Personal Photos
It is all right to post your own content on Pinterest if it pertains to your personal business or company. Do not post personal images that do not promote or sell your product/service. Use your best judgement on what is appropriate and not when pinning.
 
I hope these tips help you to become a Pinterest pro. I would love to hear your Pinterest tips or favorite uses. Best of luck and happy pinning!

    Pinterest is my favorite social platform. These tips will come in handy, finding that I tend to spend hours of my life searching for new things. I find myself searching for anything and everything all the time. Pinterest becomes extremely handy for me when I am working on projects in my design classes. There are just so many ideas that follow a certain topic and I love how with Pinterest you can search for one concept and get a variety of ideas that then can be recreated into something else. I also tend to search for different foods, because who doesn't like to eat? Thank you for sharing these tips!

    Pinterest is hands down the best social media platform. I will use these tips for sure the next time that I am on and pinning. I typically use Pinterest for new clothing styles and for food recipes when I need something quick to cook up. I know many guys don't use this form of social media but it really does come in handy for several different reasons. I was thinking of doing a blog about that exact thing actually. Thanks for Posting!

Joys of Being Home

Image
Like many of you, I have been soaking in the sun and enjoying this great spring weather we have been having recently in Ohio. Coming from a small town, country background one of my favorite things to do is ride four-wheelers when the weather is nice. While spending this past weekend at home I was able to enjoy some much-needed time with family and friends. On Sunday I went with various friends back to the woods and creek. It was so great enjoying the fresh air and spending time with my friends that I hadn’t seen for a couple of weeks while being at school. I took for granted the relaxing atmosphere of my hometown while being at school. After being home I am so excited for spring to come and stay for good. Here are some pictures from the weekend! There are so many great things about being home. What are your favorite things to do when you visit home? I would love to hear what you do in your hometown.  I am a firm believer in where we come from sha...

Spring Has Sprung!

Image
I don’t know about you, but I am absolutely LOVING this spring weather! I enjoy being able to open the window in my dorm to let in fresh air, go for walks around the green monster and of course being able to wear all my spring clothes that have been in the back of my closet for too long. Well the time is here! I decided I would share one of my favorite things to wear during the spring! Birkenstocks! Yes, I know they aren’t the most attractive pair of shoes, but they are actually VERY comfortable. Also, Birkenstock will repair your shoes if something is to happen to your beloved Birks or you have simply just worn-out certain parts of them. They are close to $100, but I think you can justify that price when you see all the great features and benefits that come with them. So, why wouldn’t you want a pair of sandals that are awesome for your feet versus your typical Old Navy black rubber flip flops? What is your favorite thing to wear in the spring? I wo...

Vera Bradley Annual Outlet Sale

Image
Last Thursday I honestly thought I had died and gone to heaven. Not really, but I was on very overjoyed and excited! I went to the annual Vera Bradley outlet sale in Fort Wayne,Indiana with my mom. For those of you that don’t know the Vera Bradley sale is held each year with large amounts of their products on sale. My mom had gone for the past several years and I was always so jealous and wanted to go but I couldn’t miss school because of softball. However, this year was finally my turn to go and experience the craze I had heard so much about. We arrived for our 11 a.m. session at 9:30 a.m. We wanted to make sure we had a decent spot in line to avoid a lot of the madness that was going to follow behind. Also by arriving early we could beat a lot of the long lines at checkout. While waiting in line Vera Bradley had various staff members encouraging us to use their hashtag and post pictures. Of course, my mom and I followed their instructions. There were prizes up for grabs! They al...
