I am very new to Pinterest, as I just signed up for it. Therefore I took sometime to search through it, and explore its features. I really like it, it is almost like Instagram, but with a bigger platform, with all kind of things, what can catch your interest.

To share with you an attractive article, I choose one which shares with you the top things marketers use to really improve sales.

1.)Need to launch the actual Pinterest site, which knows what customers pinning about.
2.)Share Geographic Location-For example you can do that for travelers, for people who are planning a future wedding place or etc.
3.)Innovative Board Names-Just give creative names to your pictures or products
4.)Alert followers of Price Changes-customers love extra features, and they also love good prices
5.)Focus on Hobbies not products-need to have sufficient knowledge about customer preferences and hobbies

Very Important to focus on Hobbies!!!

6.)Be Transparent- people love to feel close to the company,
7.)Make it a competition- engage your customers with your products and services and reward them

To share my ideas about this article, I think has all the essential points how to market on Pinterest , however I think to be successful you need to have some unique characteristics. From all the seven points, I think the key one is the focus on hobbies and not on products.
