The Complete Idiot's Guide to Pinterest Marketing


Book Description

Pinterest is a social media site that enables users to create online pinboards of compelling images they find online by "pinning" the images and curating them into various categories. It has exploded into American consciousness with big media attention and exponential growth-most notably reaching 10 million unique monthly visitors more quickly than any social media site in history. The vast majority of early devotees have been women of higher income between the ages of 25 and 49, and the images they pin frequently fall into the categories of clothing, crafts, food, and home décor. This represents a significant opportunity for companies and brands whose products are targeted to this market; however, Pinterest has value far beyond its initial popular use.

Social Media Marketing


Book Description

What Is Social Media Engagement? It is the number of shares, likes, and comments. A big following is great, but an engaged audience is better than a big one—quality over quantity. There are certain metrics used to measure social media engagement. They include: Use of branded hashtags. Mentions. Click-throughs. Audience and followers' growth. Likes. Comments. Retweets/shares. Your followers can naturally start engaging with your content. But often, you may need to encourage them a little. Here are a few tricks to help you with that. Assess your engagement: see how many followers you have, the average number of shares and comments you get on each post and any other relevant numbers. Make sure you continue monitoring these numbers. Choose your strategy: every company has different goals and strategies are, thus, different. Your strategy will depend on your goals. This could be educating the audience, collecting feedback, changing the public perception, etc. Understand your audience: it is not easy to engage people you do not know.
