I'm going to walk you through step by step in this process of getting it set up, finding a niche, finding products to promote, creating the content so you can potentially make thousands of dollars per month on this platform with affiliate marketing.

The truth is that you can learn everything for free on the internet like watching this video. Okay, so let's go ahead and get started with it. There's over 500 million monthly active users on Pinterest, and I think this is one of the most underserved platforms. There's so many users, but there's really not that many people making content on it, especially with the goal of affiliate marketing. So I think it's really underserved, and I think it's one of the best opportunities for 2025 and 2026. So let's go ahead, get into this video. I will leave links down below in the description if you want to follow along with some resources, and you can also skip around with the timestamps as well.

If you would like to, I do recommend following along with this tutorial. Whether you're watching this on your phone, you can open this on your browser or just write down some notes. It's going to help you because I promise you there's going to be a couple of gold nuggets in here that I'm going to share with you that could potentially 2x or 3x your affiliate marketing revenue just from the things that I've learned over the past decade. So let's go ahead and get started with it. So I've already explained why Pinterest is one of the best platforms. Let's actually first get into understanding which niche we should create content on on Pinterest. Now the first thing I want you to do is make sure you have a Pinterest account. So go over to Pinterest, sign up, and just kind of browse around a little bit because this is going to be helping you to find a niche to promote products in. For this example, what I'm going to do is I'm going to choose a niche of supplements. You know, Pinterest is a really high intent platform, so a lot of people go to Pinterest for inspiration or they're looking to purchase something. They're looking to maybe they want to make some different vegetables, and they want to can vegetables, or they want to furnish their apartment, and they're looking for some inspiration. So it's very high intent. There's a lot of search volume on Pinterest, and that's why it's great for affiliate marketing. So what I want you to do is go over and just create an account on Pinterest. I assume most of you probably already have accounts here, and then you're just going to explore, and you're going to look around at some different topics and categories to try to find something that you could angle to create a product in. Now it's really important here for choosing a niche that you really do focus on one like area or category. I really would not recommend trying to just do every type of affiliate product that you're promoting. You want to have a category so when people come to your Pinterest page, they know what it's about. It's not like one post is about, you know, selling carrots and the next post is about cutting hair, and the one after that is about, you know, Mustang vehicles or something. You want it to be very aligned so that it creates some type of aesthetic that people can follow. Okay, we have all these different options for different Pinterest niches that we can choose. The one that I'm actually going to do is going to be supplements, specifically for women.

if you would like to I do recommend following along with this tutorial whether you're watching this on your phone you can open this on your browser or just write down some notes it's going to help you cuz I promise you there's going to be a couple of gold nuggets in here that I'm going to share share with you that could potentially 2x or 3x your affiliate marketing Revenue just from the things that I've learned over the past decade so let's go ahead and get started with it so I've already
01:40
Speaker A
Now that's because the majority of people on Pinterest, I believe it's something around 80% of Pinterest users are women. In fact, honestly, I don't know any of my guy friends who have ever used Pinterest, which is crazy because it's a pretty great platform. I'm going to go for products for women and maybe specifically we're going to start with supplements for hair growth and for just helping with overall health of someone's hair and scalp. All right, so now when you're thinking about which niche to choose, I really would recommend finding a niche that you already know some things about. And this is going to be helpful because you'll probably be a little bit more passionate about it. I'm just using women's hair products as an example for this video. I don't think I would personally do it because I don't really know a whole lot about women's hair products. I also don't really care as much about it, and because I don't care about it as much, it's going to be harder to actually go and post a lot of content all the time because it's just not really inspiring for me. So if there's something that you're really passionate about, maybe this is like candle making or it could be soap making or it could be fashion and clothing, right? Find something that you genuinely like to do, and you could do this almost for fun because the truth is that you're not going to make a million dollars in your first month doing affiliate marketing on Pinterest. And you know from previous videos I've had people reach out and say, "Nate, I've been doing this. I've been using your strategy for the past three weeks, and I haven't made any money yet." And the truth is that this takes a long time. Sometimes this can take multiple months to see your first $1 or $100. And so this is a long game that you're playing here. Just keep that in mind. And so it's really important to find a niche that you genuinely feel inspired by, and you can just post content almost viewing it like a hobby until it starts to take off and you get a lot of impressions and views on your pins. And I'll show you those exact strategies on how to do that later in the video. Okay, so in this section, I'm going to show you how to find products to promote once you've chosen your niche. Then I'm going to show you how to build your media brand based off of that. You're going to make a website, you're going to build out your Pinterest page, and then I'm going to show you how to do some different settings inside of your Pinterest account. It's going to be very important making sure you're set up properly, that it's a business account. You're going to want to follow those steps very carefully. And then later in the video, I'm going to show you how to optimize your affiliate link and then how to get content out, how to create that content, and how to optimize the entire system so that you can automate this as much as possible. Okay, so like I said, in this section, we're looking at finding products to promote. So I chose some type of hair care supplements is going to be the thing that I'm going to look for. So what I'm going to do is I'm not going to try to reinvent the wheel. I'm just going to go onto Pinterest, and I'm going to look up supplements for hair and see and get some inspiration from other pins, from other Pinterest accounts to see what they are doing and to see what works. Okay, so I'm scrolling through, and let's say that rosemary hair growth oil is something that maybe I'm interested in. Now we can see from this it has 197 likes and 63 comments. Now when we go through this, we can read about their rosemary hair growth oil, and then what's going to end up happening is we're going to go and visit their site. So I think this is a great idea. I know this is a popular product, and people are looking for it. And so we're going to create a model around this. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to find products like rosemary hair growth oil that I can promote. And so one of the best ways to do this is on Amazon Associates. So let me take you over to that. Basically, the understanding o
02:04
Speaker A
really high intent platform so a lot of people go to Pinterest for inspiration or they're looking to purchase something they're looking to maybe they want to um make some different uh vegetables and and they want to can vegetables or they want to furnish their apartment and they're looking for some inspiration so it's very high intent there's a lot of search volume on Pinterest and that's why it's great for affiliate marketing so what I want you to do is go over and
02:27
Speaker A
just create an account on Pinterest I assume most of you probably already have accounts here and then you're just going to explore and you're going to look around at some different topics and categories to try to find something that you could angle to create a product in now it's really important here for choosing a niche that you really do focus on one like area or category I really would not recommend trying to just do every type of affiliate product that you're promoting you want to have a
02:52
Speaker A
category so when people come to your Pinterest page they know what it's about it's not like one post is about you know selling carrots and the next post is about cutting hair and the one after that is about uh you know Mustang vehicles or something you want it to be very aligned so that it creates some type of aesthetic that people can follow okay we have all these different options for different Pinterest niches that we can choose the one that I'm actually going to do is going to be supplements
03:18
Speaker A
specifically for women now that's because the majority of people on Pinterest I believe it's something around 80% of Pinterest users are women in fact honestly I don't know any of my guy friends who have ever used Pinterest which is crazy cuz it's a pretty great platform I'm going to go for products for women and maybe specifically we're going to start with supplements for hair growth and for just helping with overall health of someone's hair and scalp all right so now when you're thinking about
03:45
Speaker A
which Niche to choose I really would recommend finding a niche that you already know some things about um and this is going to be helpful because you'll probably be a little bit more passionate about it I'm just using women's hair products as an example for this video I don't think I would personally do it because I don't really know a whole lot about women's hair products I also don't really care as much about it and because I don't care about it as much it's going to be harder
04:07
Speaker A
to actually go and post a lot of content all the time cuz it's just not really inspiring for me so if there's something that you're really passionate about maybe this is like candle making or it could be soap making or it could be fashion and clothing right uh find something that you genuinely like to do and you could do this almost for fun because the truth is is that you're not going to make a million dollar in your first month doing affiliate marketing on Pinterest and you know from previous
04:35
Speaker A
videos I've had people reach out and say Nate i' I've been doing this I've been using your strategy for the past 3 weeks and I haven't made any money yet and the truth is that this takes a long time sometimes this can take multiple months to see your first1 or $100 and so this is a long game that you're playing here just keep that in mind and so it's really important to find a niche that you genuinely feel inspired by and you can just post content almost viewing it
05:00
Speaker A
like a hobby until it starts to take off and you get a lot of Impressions and views on your pins and I'll show you those exact strategies on how to do that later in the video okay so in this section I'm going to show you how to find products to promote once you've chosen your Niche then I'm going to show you how to build your media brand based off of that you're going to make a website you're going to build out your Pinterest page and then I'm going to show you how to do some different
05:21
Speaker A
settings with inside of your Pinterest account going to be very important making sure you're set up properly that it's a business account you're going to want to follow those steps very carefully and then later in the video I'm going to show you how to optimize your affiliate link and then how to get content out how to create that content and how to optimize the entire system so that you can automate this as much as possible okay so like I said in this section we're looking at finding
05:42
Speaker A
products to promote so I chose some type of um Hair Care supplements is going to be the thing that I'm going to look for so what I'm going to do is I'm not going to try to reinvent the wheel I'm just going to go onto Pinterest and I'm going to look up supplements for hair and see and get some inspiration from other pins from other Pinterest accounts to see what they are doing and to see what works okay so I'm scrolling through and let's say that rosemary hair growth oil
06:07
Speaker A
is something that maybe I'm interested in now we can see from this it has 197 likes and 63 comments now when we go through this we can read about their rosemary hair growth oil and then what's going to end up happening is we're going to go and visit their site so I think this is a great idea um I know this is a popular product and people are looking for it and so we're going to create a model around this so what I'm going to do is I'm going to find products like
06:31
Speaker A
rosemary hair growth oil that I can promote and so one of the best ways to do this is on Amazon Associates so let me take you over to that basically the the understanding of this and I'll try to keep it as as simple as possible is that you can become an affiliate marketer partner with Amazon so you can promote any product that's listed on Amazon and you will get a commission every time someone clicks on your link and buy something on Amazon within the next 24 hours so let's say for example
06:58
Speaker A
that you make a pin like this and you send them over to Amazon through your special custom affiliate link that Amazon gives you now when someone purchases something like this hair growth oil or actually anything in the next 24 hours you are going to get a commission you're going to get a percentage of the sale usually this is anywhere between 1 and 10% of Revenue of the sale that you've driven so if we go over to Amazon and we look up rosemary oil for hair growth what we're going to
07:27
Speaker A
do is we're going to find a popular product we want some something that's a little bit high cost so that we can make more money with it and let's say that we really think that this one it looks like a pretty good BET right here okay so this one has great reviews and so what we're going to do is we're going to go over and we're going to create an Amazon Associates account and then we're going to link to this product and every time someone purchases it we're going to get
07:48
Speaker A
a percentage of the revenue from this sale now we're not the ones actually selling the rosemary oil we're just promoting it and getting people to click on the link and purchase the product through Amazon okay so Amazon Associates is probably the best option because it has pretty much every product you could think about that you want to promote so I definitely recommend signing up for that now on top of that there are other platforms or affiliate networks that you
08:12
Speaker A
can use there is a network called impact so impact.com I would recommend signing up for this there's a lot of different affiliate programs in here things like Adidas or Nike I think they have affiliate programs inside of here there's at least a few thousand brands that run their affiliate program through impact.com so I would recommend checking that out as well I'll leave a link to them down below if you want to sign up for it and there's other ones as well
08:35
Speaker A
things like partner stack and so partner stack is generally more like software so if you're promoting any types of like software products then you could find some really good ones on here but you can even look at you know the different companies that are already on the platform you can see it's like a lot of software ones but it still could be relevant for you depending on the niche that you choose to create content in and to Pro promote products in okay so this
08:58
Speaker A
is how you're going to find products promote let me show you how to sign up for Amazon Associates okay so to sign up for Amazon Associates you can go to affiliate-program amazon.com I will also leave a link to that down below where you can apply to join their affiliate program now they're actually a little bit like uh difficult to get accepted into I'd say most people get accepted but the key here if you want to get accepted to Amazon Associates is that you want to have a
09:23
Speaker A
reputable brand and one of the best ways to do this is to create a website uh alongside your Pinterest account so that you can look very legitimate like I said earlier you want to build a media brand you don't want to just be a Creator throwing stuff out there you want to be something think of like favorite media Brands whether this is something like um you know New York Times or bar stool sports or like all these different media companies like Business Insider or
09:49
Speaker A
morning Brew you want to be a media brand okay and so I'm going to show you how to make a website because I would recommend doing that before you actually apply to the Amazon Associates program okay but I will leave a link to that down below and you can just sign up for Amazon Associates and go through the whole flow of creating that account so that you can start promoting products they'll give you custom links for whatever products you want to promote and then you can put them into your pins
10:12
Speaker A
so right now what we're going to actually have to do is we're going to make a website and then we're going to apply to the associates program so let's go back here and we're going to go to sandal media.com hostinger okay so like I said building a website is super important in this process of making money as a Pinterest affiliate marketer if you want to take it seriously and the beauty of this is that making a website is so much easier today than it was even just a few years ago
10:39
Speaker A
thanks to Ai and so the one that we recommend using is called hostinger you can go to hostinger.com sandrell and you'll get a special discount when you use that link and so what you'll get is you'll be able to build a website for about $3 a month $299 a month plus you get 3 months free plus we got a discount code sandal 10 that you can use to save some extra money this is by far the best place to build a website they'll use AI to build the website for you and then
11:03
Speaker A
you just have to fill in some more information and you can add some different articles in there and then you can apply to Amazon Associates okay so what we're going to do here is I'm going to just Breeze through and show you how to make a quick site um we have a full hour long tutorial if you want to make like every special detail on your hostinger site but we're going to click on claim deal here um and we're going to just build this super quickly you can probably make this realistically in
11:26
Speaker A
about uh 15 or 20 minutes it's probably worth your time okay so we have different options we have the premium the business the cloud startup or the cloud professional plan with all of these you're going to get over a 100 websites so if you want to start different Pinterest accounts with different brands uh and make a website for each one of those it's all included here in that $99 per month you know by the way these prices do change I don't know how long this is going to last so
11:50
Speaker A
if you click on this you know video 6 months from now or a year from now the pricing might change a little bit but it's still going to be by far the best option we used to use Squarespace to make our sites but it just got way too expensive now you'll also get a free domain for the first year when you use this and that's going to be really great so when we create our supplement uh uh brand that we're going to post on Pinterest we can have a special domain that it links to and we're going to be
12:14
Speaker A
sending them over to blog articles right so let me make this here um we have the option to have a 48 month plan you can do a 12mth plan I would suggest lucking in it for longer just cuz you'll get that for you know four years essentially um for $143 Plus I'll put in the code here and that's going to save me even more money there all right so $129 for 4 years is a pretty great deal but maybe let's say you just want to do 12 months it's still not bad $32 uh when it's all
12:42
Speaker A
said and done and we get a domain so let's just click on continue here all right so now we're just making an account here it's pretty easy and straightforward and I'm just filling out some information to go through with the purchase all right so when we're signing up for hostinger we have the option to create a new website or migrate from a previous website if you already have one but let's make a new one we're going to click on next and then we can use WordPress or we can use the hostinger
13:02
Speaker A
website builder I would definitely recommend using the hostinger website builder because they use AI to make this website for you in just a couple of minutes uh WordPress it's more customizable but it's pretty complicated and um you know we have tutorials on that but it can take you at least a couple of hours um so use the website builder if you want something that's easy now let's find a name for our company okay so this is our media brand that we're building okay so Wyoming naturals.com
13:29
Speaker A
this looks like a great one I'm going to also create my Pinterest account um and name it Wyoming Naturals this way we don't have to just stick with hair we can Branch out and promote other products but it's still going to be around like those types of skincare hair care products uh that we're going to be promoting so Wyoming naturals.com I really would recommend using aom domain name if you can uh that's just because it is seen as the most trustworthy um if you get a domain like Wyoming Naturals
13:58
Speaker A
XYZ one two 3 four five das4 or something doino or Biz or something weird people are gonna think it's malware and they're gonna be scared to click on the link so you want it to look very reputable doc.net is also still pretty reputable so try to find one of those so now hosting you're going to make this website for us um we just have to enter in our brand name so Wyoming Naturals and then enter a description this is going what they're going to base it off of in order to make this site for you so
14:25
Speaker A
you can either type this in um or you can even go over to chat GPT and just it make a little description for you cuz if you're lazy uh let's just go to GPT and have it make it for us okay so I just pasted it in there with some descriptions of what I'm looking for the types of products that we're going to be reviewing and then I'm going to click on create website so this could take a couple minutes it's a great time to get up and stretch a little bit and uh it's
14:46
Speaker A
going to make it for us in about 2 to 3 minutes okay so it just made it for us we can uh scroll through here and see how we like it both on desktop and most importantly on mobile to make sure that it looks good and if we like it this looks pretty clean for for you know not taking any time uh for myself and we can choose a different color palette as well if we like it we can click continue if we don't like it we can just have it remake it until we like it okay so here
15:11
Speaker A
we are here is our website so editing this site is super easy to do you can just click on things you can change the wording here right it's very easy and straightforward you can change the buttons you can link these buttons to different web addresses to your blog to other parts of the site um so it's very easy to do this if you want to add a section you can do that right here and say you want to put in like a products categories thing you can put that right there boom you can fill it out you can
15:36
Speaker A
upload photos or you can can even generate images using AI for this so I won't spend too much time showing you how to actually make this site because a lot of it straight forward but also you're here to learn about Pinterest but this is important to build out your site so that we can get onto Amazon Associates and we can get into that program so uh once you have your site built out what you're going to do is you're going to to click on go live okay and so now our website is live um just a
16:04
Speaker A
quick note here if you if it doesn't go live and there's problems make sure you check your email cuz sometimes you have to verify your email in order to get the domain and everything but once you have it live and there's some content on there spend a little bit of time maybe have ai write a couple of uh reviews for you or blog articles for you then we're going to go over to Amazon Associates to create that account so let's go do that now so now we're going through the
16:26
Speaker A
process of creating our Amazon Associates account if you look up at the top here we have four sections we have to fill out our account information then we have to add our website which we just created that blog you see why this is important and mobile app list so basically where you are planning on promoting Amazon products you're going to have to give them a list of it a little description as well and select some boxes which are important to navigate properly then we're going to
16:49
Speaker A
set up our profile and then we can start using Amazon Associates and get access to those custom links that we can start posting on Pinterest okay so let's fill this information out here and I'm going to click on the next step all right so now we are adding our website to this uh selection here so I'm going to paste in Wyoming naturals.com click on ADD now make sure that you uh read these instructions here because uh this is only valid for the United States um
17:15
Speaker A
there are special Amazon Associates like links for other countries so you can just do a quick Google search to find out the proper one for yourself so once we have this in here we can click on next and um we don't have traffic directed towards people under 13 uh just click on confirm and then we're going to create um an ID here so Wyoming Naturals um and tell them about the content that we create so a media brand for Women's Health and maybe fill it out a little
17:42
Speaker A
bit more a couple more sentences there but for the purpose of this as a just a tutorial um I'm going to leave it at that and then which of the following best describes your content so this is going to be a Blog is what we're going to use for that and then how do we hear about it you can just say you know from whatever from a blog post or from word of mouth or something and then we're just going to fill out these all right and then we're going to click on finish
18:06
Speaker A
all right and so we've just applied for it um here is our unique ID for it and so we can enter our tax information later we have our special ID and now we are essentially in the the program they're still going to review it um and you can get kicked out of it so you want to make sure that you're doing things properly you're not doing anything sketchy so now what we can do is let's go over to Amazon and now let's look up uh rosemary oil right and then we're going to go and find the product that we
18:31
Speaker A
wanted to promote which was this one and now we have this uh site stripe up here which Amazon provides it's like it's like a plugin essentially and so we can get the link for this we're going to get a 3% commission every time someone purchases through our link when they purchase this product so we can just go up here and click on get link it's going to make the special link for us we can just copy it so command Z I'm going to copy that link right there and now I'm
18:55
Speaker A
going to be able to use this in my content so uh now we can start talking about making the Pinterest account and making the pins now that we are monetized we're ready to go and we have a reason to start making content okay so you can take these links and you can embed them into your information into your blog articles into your pins and so what we're going to do is we're going to copy that and then let's actually go back to our blog and I would recommend making this is really important make a
19:22

save that but I also am going to want to change my photo here so uh for all of the graphics and for all of the pins that we're going to be making I would suggest using two different platforms one of them is canva and the other one is video gen now canva is going to be really useful for making things like logos and making your initial pins for your Pinterest okay so go over to canva and we're just going to create a logo for our new Media company so we can type
21:30
Speaker A
in logo and canva is also free I think I have the paid version uh because it's it's worth it I make a lot of different affiliate Media company so it's worth whatever it costs $15 a month so I'm going to make a quick logo here though and you it this is free for like the basic stuff so don't worry about having to spend money here um and let's just make a quick brand design for Wyoming Naturals maybe we like something like something like this right and so I can change this to Wyoming maybe put
21:57
Speaker A
Naturals down here so maybe we want something like that and you know I'm just making this for the purpose of this tutorial I I would definitely spend more time on this if I was making this as a legitimate brand um but I want to save you some time here so once you have your logo created you're just going to go up to the right hand corner click on download you're going to download that logo and you're going to go back to Pinterest now you can also do all of this on your phone you can use the
22:21
Speaker A
Pinterest app you can have Pinterest on your phone I'm just showing you how to do it on my laptop here for the purpose of this tutorial but we're going to upload upload our logo here and it can take just a second and then we're going to click on Save now I do recommend also going through all of these different tabs here to check up on different things for profile visibility you want to make sure it's at to uh public profile uh you don't need search privacy
22:44
Speaker A
you can create bulk pins on here as well if you want to upload a CSV file so we have all these different things that we can do but let's go back to our home feed all right so now what we're going to do is we're going to start off by making about 20 to 30 different pins all around a product that we're looking to promote so let's start off with that rosemary oil we already got the special link for it from Amazon we're getting a 3% Commission on the sale for that so
23:07
Speaker A
we're going to go over and we're going to start to create pins so if you're on your desktop you can just click up here and you can click on create pin and now what you're going to do is you're going to be able to drop in the pin that you made you can make this on your phone on canva app or there's other platforms and apps you can use to make content but basically we're going to make a really basic photo here with a kind of like a title and then we're going to be sending
23:30
Speaker A
them off to a Blog article or to our website where they can end up buying the rosemary oil or reading more about the rosemary oil that they can then go and purchase okay so we can drop a file in here let's just go make one in canva real quick so on canva you can select Pinterest pin and it's going to be the right format the right size for it um and let's say that we want something like this one looks good and we can just modify that so we can add um let's see
23:57
Speaker A
if we can do rose if we have any good photos of Rosemary and this one looks pretty good right here you know what let's actually let's use this one here I like this one and then we can just make it larger and then we can crop it very easily here and now we can change this we can add some other things in here all right so I just made a really quick one and you can definitely make these look even better I just made this in about 30 seconds here and once you are satisfied
24:25
Speaker A
with it you can just once again go up to the upper right corner click on download and then go back to Pinterest and upload it now this could be the most important part of the video here you want to make sure that you're properly making your pins and so like I said you're going to want to do about 20 to 30 pins that you can post over the course of this first week and then you want to be careful you don't post too many like don't post a 100 pieces of content per day on your
24:50
Speaker A
Pinterest account because it's going to trip some flags for Pinterest and they're going to say this is probably spam or you might be like a bot trying to just put out content they want to make sure a real person so don't overdo it but put out about 20 to 30 pieces of content in your first week if you can to build that Baseline now when you're making the title and description um you want to remember that this is a very high intent platform where a lot of people are searching for things so you
25:15
Speaker A
want to do some keyword stuffing in here so what I'm doing for the description is I can fill this out myself or I can just use trusty chat GPT and have them make us a little description here for us for our pin and we can paste that in there on how to use rosemary oil and then also we have tap to learn more tips for luscious locks good on chat GPT cuz our whole goal here is to get them to our website now you can either post your Amazon affiliate link directly on here
25:47
Speaker A
or I would recommend sending them to your website this is once again why it's important to have a website here if you're spamming an Amazon link or an affiliate link right here I don't think I'd really recommend doing that Pinterest doesn't really like that cuz the link looks kind of weird and you're just sending them directly to a product you're better off sending them to your website where you have a full blog article outlining all the benefits of the product and then in that blog
26:12
Speaker A
article you're going to make buttons and you're going to use hyperlinks to basically put your Amazon affiliate Link in there so when they're reading the blog article and they click on buy now it takes them to Amazon okay so let's just take them to uh Wyoming naturals.com for now but you can make a custom blog article on your website and then we can choose a board to put it on we can create a new board we we can call this hair care create that and then do some tag topics as well Hair Care
26:40
Speaker A
natural hair care and we can do something like rosemary oil or herbs is a good one as well so you can put a few tags in there and then we can click on publish now I like Pinterest a lot because you can also publish this at a later date so you can schedule all of your pins I would recommend just sitting down and just doing all 20 or 30 right now um and schedule them so that you're releasing one or two per day every single day and you know this is going to take time to get this going but I'm
27:10
Speaker A
going to click on publish here and your first pin you might not get that many views right your first dozen pins you might not get that many views but it's really just a Content game where you want to put out as much content as possible over the course of a year or two years and you're going to see it start to pick up and snowball and once Pinterest sees that you are a real creat and you're putting out quality content that people are reading they're reading your blog articles they're learning
27:33
Speaker A
things Pinterest is going to promote you even more they're going to show you towards the top of people's boards and the top of people's uh search results when they're looking for something okay so there's other things you can do as well for Pins you don't have to just use static content you can also make videos so um if you want to make videos explainer videos say like for rosemary oil for example uh we can go to something called videoen so it's videoen doio
27:59
Speaker A
um I will leave a link to it down below in the description as well that actually is an affiliate link so uh we get a very small commission when you use this platform to make videos but this will make short form videos for you super easy and it's really low cost so you can just get started on that I will link to a tutorial showing you how to make it but it's super cool it'll make short form videos you can say make me a video about Rosary oil for hair growth and
28:24
Speaker A
it'll do that for you and it's it's a really great tool so let me just show you how how easy it is to use you can create a video gen account and then click on generate a video and we can customize things we can have the accent we can give it lots of pointers we can even link to things like our website and then just enter in the prompt there so I said make a video about how rosemary oil is is good for your hair okay so it just made a script for us there we can edit
28:48
Speaker A
that script if we like it uh we can then click on generate video okay so it just made the video for us we can have this in portrait mode and we can just play it here real quick I want to play it for you cuz you'll see how it is rosemary oil is a Powerhouse when it comes to promoting hair health and its benefits are truly remarkable first and foremost this essential oil so yeah this looks like a video that could have taken a person a few hours to make and it just made that
29:14
Speaker A
for us in a few seconds we can change the uh voice on here if we don't like Matilda we can say we want maybe like um Adam or someone else welcome to the future of video right so um it's super cool to do that and then once we have the video created and we can change like all these things we can customize the caption style maybe we want to be like big words like this right we can just have it like that is a Powerhouse that's the basics of it you can use video and images on
29:42
Speaker A
your Pinterest account and be posting those every single day sending them over to your website where you have embedded affiliate links and you're going to do this for a long period of time stick this out for at least a couple of months most people who watch this video you know I made this video last last year most people who watch it they'll watch it they'll maybe make a website they might make a Pinterest account they'll put out a couple of pins and then they'll forget about it there's
30:07
Speaker A
something called shiny object syndrome where people move on to the next business idea the next topic and by next week they forget about it if you stick with this and you make tons of content over the next year there is a decent chance of succeeding a lot of people will fail at it it doesn't work for everyone but if you focus on what's working you study the pins that are getting a lot of traffic and you understand why they're getting a lot of traffic this is something that you can
30:30
Speaker A
genuinely I believe grow into a business that could potentially make you thousands of dollars per month so I hope this video was valuable for you thanks for watching I really appreciate all the support and subscribing to the channel so you don't miss more videos like this one so thank you if you have any questions um or issues feel free to reach out to me on Instagram I will respond to as many people as possible if you just send me a quick DM I'll see if I can help you out I can't make promises
