Pinterest is HOT | Are You Using Pinterest for your Direct Sales or Network Marketing Business?
Everywhere you look these days you're seeing talk about Pinterest! Why? Over the past four months, this eye catching social network has grown incredibly fast. In fact, it is one of the fastest growing social networks when you use the measure of how quickly it rose to over 10 million unique views in a given month. The concept is simple and truly follows the trend that we're also seeing on Facebook. Over 250 MILLION photos a day are uploaded onto Facebook. Not to mention the countless photos shared with the share feature.
Pinterest was born about two years ago as an online "pinboard." A place to add your favorite photos, aka "pins," to the boards you create. Your boards can reflect just about anything under the sun. Some of the trends include beautiful vacation spots, dream homes, favorite recipes, kids stuff, crafts, do-it-yourself tips, and great reads. One of things that makes it so popular is that it's a reflection of the life we dream, a perfect life. And for that reason, I've chosen to specifically add a board to my Pinterest account that reflects my dreams and vision.
So clearly as an Attraction Marketer, the first question I asked myself when I joined was, "How can I make this work for my business?" We know that the KEY to Pinterest is the viral nature of social network. So watch this video I created to show the basics on how it's done!
Leave your questions and comments below. Let's hear how you're using Pinterest for business!

Hi Dani,
I am beginning to see the power in Pinterest too. I was just thinking yesterday about make a “vision board” on there for myself.
Thanks for the great post.

Dani- GREAT vid! Isn’t it crazy how technology refuses to work when we are on camera!?
Great tips, my favorite one is the one about not spamming. Having been an early adopter on Pinterest I can tell you in no uncertain terms that the site is riddled with self promotion these days.
BRAVO!

Awesome vid, Dani!
Really helps me a lot to use pinterest at its best. Love your suggestion about capturing fans to my FB page. – And wanna know WHAT? I nearly never checked the “popular” section of pinterest so far. – Will have a look at it now that I watched your vid
