Your Pinterest Fairy Godmother Is Here!

Here to remind you that taking a little extra time to pin your Instagram posts the right way is worth it. ⁠Pinterest can get you followers, but it’s less likely if you let it automatically publish from IG to Pinterest.⁠ Yes, that’s definitely easier and if you have 0 time, it’s better than nothing, but if you want to really optimize the content you already worked hard on you should do the following.⁠ Here’s how to add an IG post to your Tailwind Queue to make your life easier:

Pin This For Later:

Here’s Your Guide:

1. Go to the URL of the IG post you want to share (don’t pin from your main profile page).⁠
⁠
2. Use the @tailwindapp chrome extension which will pop up with the post + options to select boards and change text > will add to your queue for you. ⁠
⁠
3. Change the title and description so rather than auto-populating with whatever your caption is, it has keywords that describe the photo itself and any info one might learn from the post.

Bonus Tip:

If you want to be cRAZy, I’d even take it one step further and make sure all images are vertical in Canva first > manually add the IG link and keywords (or have my team take care of it for you ha).
⁠
If you want to save time, I’d have a a few keywords that you always use that describe your IG profile/content as a whole that you can add after a few keywords that are new and describe the photo. ⁠
