Using Pinterest Collages for Product Sales Nov 12, 2024

Show notes

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.
