How To Monetize Pinterest

Ready to make money on Pinterest?

Pinterest is a social media platform that is highly visual and allows users to share images, videos and other content. It is a great platform for businesses to showcase their products and services, and reach a larger audience. Here are some ways in which you can monetize your Pinterest account:

1. Affiliate Marketing: Affiliate marketing is a process where you promote someone else's products and earn a commission on the sales made through your unique affiliate link. You can join affiliate programs of brands that align with your niche and promote their products on your Pinterest account.
2. Sponsored Content: Brands are always looking for influencers to promote their products. If you have a large following on Pinterest, you can collaborate with brands, and create sponsored content for them. This can include creating pins, boards, and even sponsored content on your blog.
3. Sell Products: If you have a business or an online store, then you can use Pinterest to showcase your products and drive traffic to your website. You can create product pins that link directly to your website, and use Pinterest to drive sales.
4. Pinterest Ads: You can also use Pinterest's advertising platform to promote your products or services. Pinterest has a variety of ad formats that you can use, including promoted pins, promoted carousels, and promoted video pins. These ads can help you drive more traffic to your website and increase sales.

Here’s a 3 step plan of action:

1. plan the strategy - let’s strategically plan a 90 day action plan for your business on Pinterest.
2. optimize - all your content needs to be optimized with seo.
3. drive - implement that plan by driving traffic to your business using Pins.

Rinse and Repeat!

Do this for 90 days and see the difference.

There is a disclaimer - Pinterest is not a “get rich over night” scheme. It takes consistent time and looks for results in 90 days. The upside of this is that your Pins last for years, compared to other social media platforms where posts only last 24-48 hours. 

So, Pinterest can be a great tool for monetizing your content and reaching a larger audience. By using these strategies, you can turn your Pinterest account into a lucrative source of income.
