How Pinterest Might Help Small Businesses
by Simon Wilkinson
Pinterest gives it members the option to pin photos from just about any internet site they're reading onto a virtual pin board. Users can make as many pin boards as they would like and add to every board any number of images and also their own detailed description of the picture they are attaching. All other users of Pinterest can do a search within the web site for pictures that are useful to them, provide feedback on them, subscribe to a specific pin board of interest plus re-pin an image to their personal account.
So how does this help a small business?
Part of the programming built into this site is that when a user pins a picture from a site to a pin board, the website address from where the image came is listed clearly and concisely and there is no option with which to hide to this information.
Let's imagine Jane Doe is organizing her wedding ceremony. She is able to make pin boards for a gown, wedding cake, footwear, jewelry and the like. While she browses internet sites for guidance and finds images of such items that she loves she can pin them on to the particular boards she has built so that she can browse them in the future. Every last image will note the web site from where they came so there's no need while surfing around for Jane Doe to need to recall an address or pen long lists.
Close friends, family members as well as other users of Pinterest are able to see the pin board Jane Doe has built and they're able to add feed-back like their thoughts on the thing that they're taking a look at or they can re-pin the image should it be of interest to them to a board that belongs to them. The website from where Jane Doe first got the image will by default be visible on this new board.
Not only can a business quickly have its products visually displayed to a large number of potential customers accompanied by its website url but they will also be able to get suggestions about their goods through the comments that users of Pinterest leave.
Pinterest keeps growing in use everyday to gather information for many reasons from organizing a wedding day to re-decorating a property and is available via the widely used social network websites Twitter and facebook. That means if a small business is employing the visual aspect of advertising itself and its products or services on its internet site, there is the opportunity to raise awareness with many different prospective leads because consumers are searching pin boards within Pinterest and re-posting images for their own fans, family and friends.
These days Pinterest is not really limiting how an individual subscribes, so both private individuals and companies can create a free account assuming they already have a legitimate current email address. Unfortunately it is worth remembering that you can not just post a pic to a pin board from your computer or laptop files. Just those pictures already made available online can be included, which is why if you want to create an account for your company it is important to make sure you have a web page and that any pictures you want to include on a pin board are available on your web site as well.
