Not your parents' accountant

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.

Pinterest Q4 Investor Report

Pinterest released their 2023 Q4 earnings report and it’s good news. Today I’ll break down the nitty gritty of what you need to know and not know for your marketing. And why this all means good news for the strength and longevity of the platform.  The Content Entrepreneur Research is out: Books are among the top 3 most profitable and most utilized tactics to monetize content. Having a book can help you land the speaking gig of your dreams,  spark a new funnel of prospective clients,  or take what you already have and create a digital product. But honestly, the book process can be daunting.  At a conference last year I came across Lulu. I had no idea who they were and struck up a conversation with one of their team members. They had examples of how content creators had taken their expertise and created books, journals, planners, and more. I instantly knew we had to turn our Simple Pin Planner into a physical copy.  Whether you already have content prepared or you’re starting from scratch, either way, getting your expertise into a printed book with Lulu has never been easier and more profitable. Their e-commerce plugins make it easy for you to publish your book and sell it directly to your fans from your own site, while they handle all of the printing and shipping on the back end. We use the Shopify integration and it’s slick! You keep 100% creative control, 100% of your customer data, and 100% of your profits.

Pinterest for Dummies. The one thing I hear from people is that they don’t “get” Pinterest. It doesn’t make sense to them so they don’t want to use it for their marketing. I totally get that.

329 Short Form Video for Pinterest

The internet is buzzing with the idea that short-form video content might not be serving our audiences anymore, but might it just be we’re sharing the short-form video content in the wrong way? We aren’t leading them anywhere. We’re playing to algorithms, which is often what we need to do in this game, but in that, we’ve forgotten our end consumer and we’re no longer creating for them. In this episode, we’re diving into our recent switch and discovering why we’re no longer creating for Instagram.  April showers bring May flowers…and April spring cleaning brings a happy person in May. I couldn’t really tighten up that statement but you get the idea. Spring is a great time to clean out all the dust on your Pinterest account and get geared up for the back half of the year. This month Simple Pin is offering 20% off our Deep Cleans and Builds. Let me tell you a bit more.

324 High Intent and Low Intent on Pinterest

I came across a thread on LinkedIn from a product manager at Pinterest. Someone tagged Barry Hott in a post and he also linked a recent YouTube video. I watched the video comparing ads across all platforms and the title was how to advertise in 2023. I got a little nosey and went down the road of internet stalking and realized I need to hear more about Barry’s story. He also said on the podcast, high intent/low intent for Pinterest advertising. This is something we’ve been saying for a while but the way he framed it up compared to all other platforms, was awesome. I shared the video on my IG and the realized, i should probably just get to know this guy.  —------- See full show notes for all episodes at Simple Pin Media .

183 Why and When to Hire Pinterest Management

Are you struggling to know when to hire someone to manage your Pinterest account? In this episode I’m breaking down some of the top questions we get in our discovery calls to help you make the decision before booking a call. I once heard someone on a podcast say, I believe it was Dan Miller, that when you get a question more than 3 times you create a product. I took that concept here and thought, instead of a product, let’s just share the answers in a podcast. For the last six years I’ve been working as a service provider in the Pinterest management industry. I have learned countless lessons on how to work with people, when to work with people, and especially how to help people evaluate if it’s time to hire someone. At simple pin we are very picky about who we work with. We want to take in the whole picture of their business, how often they create content, images, business plans, goals, etc. This is not a place where you roll up and we take you. No way. I care too much about your business to think of it that way. All the Pinterest stars have to align for us to move forward in a contract. I’m giving you a sneak peek behind the scenes as to the top questions we get in our discovery calls and how we answer them. I hope this episode will help you determine why, when and who you should hire to manage your Pinterest account.
