464: Kate Ahl – Actionable Pinterest tactics for photographers in business

Premium Members, click here to access this interview in the premium area. Kate Ahl of www.simplepinmedia.com is a Pinterest expert and strategist — in this interview, she shares actionable Pinterest tactics for photographers in business. Over the years of recording interviews, Pinterest gets mentioned only once or twice each year and seems to fall off the radar for photographers quickly. You might be using Pinterest for yourself — for inspiration, to catalogue looks, poses and styles you love and might like to emulate. What about utilising the platform to attract and connect with potential clients? I was hoping Kate would help provide some answers around the platform and convince us one way or the other if we should or shouldn't be investing our time and effort into Pinterest. The great news is Kate is a Pinterest master! She is the owner and founder of Simple Pin Media, a Pinterest management and marketing company. Through her company's work with over 700 different Pinterest accounts, they take a data-driven approach to designing Pinterest strategies to help their clients and students find their perfect clients with Pinterest. She teaches simple, actionable Pinterest marketing strategies to help business owners through her website and podcast, which she delivered in this interview.  Here's some more of what we covered in the interview: What’s on Offer for Premium Members If you’re a premium member, you should have received an email with links to your version of this interview – the full length and more revealing version where you hear the absolute best tips and advice from every guest.
