Pinterest! Help boost exposure

[Former_Member]

Yes I know views aren't sales... but they do help generate them especially on pinterest. If you arent on pinterest, join. It's relatively easy and fun to click.
Post the item urls you want pinned here
Also feel free to post a pinterest link to follow
This has helped my other shop, lets get pinning!

I've now pinned everything onto my Pinterest account...phew, marketing is tiring! I'm pretty sure there should be people to do such things for me.

I'm on a phone right now but I will definitely pin you guys' stuff if I see something I like!

[Former_Member]

I will get on a pin them too! How is everyone categorizing the items? According to the pinterest category of the owner or a new etsy team category?

Right now I'm pinning the stuff from Etsy that I like under "My Style" but I'm going to have to break it down soon or it will be over flowing, lol.

Hi all so much to learn here, nice to know that we are not alone!! One question I do have is how can we get added to groups circles or is this just something that will happen over time.

Best wishes

I've just added people to my circle and many have added me back.

I find that a lot of people that originally followed me on twitter add me to their circle. It helps make sure you get to your right target market too. For example, I follow a lot of indie dyers and knit designers on twitter.

One trick I found with pinterest was that if you start a comment with a dollar sign ($) your item will have a small banner on it with the cost so that others can see the price right away. I love pinterest, and have found I get a lot of views from there.

I am going to start pinning too! It would be helpful if everyone sent a link they would like us to put up on our pinterest. Here is one of mine:

I've pinned some items to Pinterest, but I haven't seen any search results from Pinterest in my shop stats. But hey, they're out there, and hopefully I'll see some results!

I wanted to let you all know that I'm having a contest, if any of you are interested in winning a felted owl. If you would like to enter, check out my blog for instructions: http://showerofsunflowers.blogspot.com/2012/02/its-contest-time.html. Thanks!
