Pinterest Launches E-Learning Platform: Pinterest Academy
Everyday thousands of people hop on Pinterest looking for inspiration on everything from new projects, to their personal style, to food recipes, and more. That inspiration often leads them to their next purchase. Because of this, having a successful social media presence on Pinterest can make a big difference to the success of independent sellers.
So, selling on Pinterest sounds great, but where do you start? Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been on Pinterest for years, the nuances of the algorithm can be quite the mystery. Failing to use that algorithm to your advantage can easily choke out a new business. Thankfully, you can get many of these questions answered with the newly launched Pinterest Academy.
Pinterest Academy is a free e-learning platform that teaches entrepreneurs how to better optimize their ad campaigns on the site to gain more followers and make a bigger impact. All you need to enroll in these free, asynchronous courses is a Pinterest Business Account.
