Practical Tips For Small Businesses – Tip #8 Use Pinterest To Advertise Your Business For Free.

Are you using Pinterest to advertise your business? – You should for several reasons.

“A picture paints a thousand words.”

Pinterest is all about pictures which is tailor-made for your business, and they don’t have to be your pictures.
Once you have set up your Pinterest account, you can pin and repin any picture you like and it’s so simple to do.
What’s more you can add your own words to the picture and a link to your website.

In just a few minutes searching Pinterest you will find pictures suitable for your business and with one click, post them on one of your own boards.
And other people will do the same, pinning your pictures on their boards.
Because it’s so simple it’s no wonder it’s the No. 3 most popular social network in the US behind Facebook and Twitter and is fast growing worldwide.

So give it a try …

Go to http://www.pinterest.com and enter your email address to request an invitation. It should take just a day or two for your invitation to arrive in your mail.

And to see how it works, take a look at the traveljunkies boards here http://www.pinterest.com/traveljunkies  then click on any of the seven pictures to see all the pictures in that board.

Remember, once you have set up your account, come back to the traveljunkies boards and click on Repin to add a picture to your board.
You’ll be amazed at how quickly other people find you and repin your pictures to their boards.

As I said at the beginning, your business is all about pictures and it’s as if Pinterest has been developed just for you.
Go on – Just do it! 

Good luck
