Since you’re already a badass entrepreneur, I probably don’t need to tell you that you should NOT mix your personal expenses and your business expenses. Right?
Well marketing on Pinterest is the same way. You don’t want to mix your personal account with your business or things will get messy! And badass entrepreneurs like us don’t do messy when it comes to our businesses. 🙅🏾♀️
So if you are on Pinterest as a business owner, you need to:
☝️ hide your personal boards to make them secret boards and convert your personal account to a business account, or
✌️ create a separate profile for your business, separate from your personal profile.
Personal vs. Business Pinterest Accounts
You need to use your personal profile and your business profile differently. On your business account, you do not pin what you pin for your personal profile.
So if you are not a vegan blogger, you should not be pinning vegan recipes if you are a business coach for people who are not vegan recipe people. That wouldn’t make sense.
If it does not align with your business, then you need to hide those boards or create a business account specifically for your business and only pin your content relevant to your business.
That means I should never see these boards on your business Pinterest profile if it does not align with your business:
🚫 recipes you want to try
🚫 wedding ideas
🚫 your dream home stuff
🚫 workouts you want to try
🚫 anything else not relevant to your business!
Why Do I Need a Pinterest Business Account?
Whether you decide to create a separate profile for your business or to convert your personal account to a business account (and hide those personal boards), you NEED to have a business account.
If you don’t, you’ll be missing out on all the amazing features you’ll get with a business account such as:
🌻 Analytics – Because who doesn’t want to see what content is doing thee best!
🌻 Rich Pins – this gives the user more info about pins pulled from your website
🌻 Promoted Pins – Pinterest is a visual search engine. Promoting pins can be golden!
🌻 Link / Claim your website – this will help tons with your rankings
🌻 Keywords – this helps pinners find you and your content because again… search engine⠀
So I need you to go right now, see what boards you need to hide as secret boards and convert your personal account to a business account, OR just create a whole new business account. So go run now and convert your personal profile over to the not so dark side 😈!
With Pinterest, despite how things may be with your personal account, when it comes to using it for your business you have to put in the work to set it up for greatness. If you don’t, Pinterest won’t be the GOAT 🐐 for you. And you don’t wanna miss out on this greatness like everyone else?
Nope! You want to be a badass at Pinterest. 🙌🏾
