Have you tried advertising on Pinterest, but found that you weren’t successful? Maybe you’ve written the platform off as not being relevant to your industry…or maybe you didn’t even know you could advertise on Pinterest!

Pinterest’s ads are called Promoted Pins, which are shown to users based on their interests and past Pinterest activity. In fact, as of Q1 of 2022, Pinterest had 431 million monthly active users worldwide!

Pinterest is a unique social media platform that combines the visual elements of Instagram with search engine-like features, allowing users to discover and share ideas.
