12. Use video and the Pinterest app when you create Idea pins:
Your audience wants to see you, wants to connect with you, and short-form video is what they are looking for. Mix it up! Do some idea pins that are all text, images, and some animations (if you want) created in Canva, save them to your phone, and upload them to Pinterest using the app. There are lots more features in the app, like music, stickers, and brand mentions. Then do another one with video only using the app with eye-catching text overlays on the video, and finally do one with both video slides and text overlay slides. You can do this by creating the text overlay slides in Canva and the video slides in the app. Save the text overlay slides to your phone and upload them to the app, rearranging the video and text overlay slides if needed. See which ones your audience resonates best with by comparing the impressions with the clicks and saves to other idea pins you created. Pinterest users are not looking for you to do a dance or be goofy like we see on TikTok and in reels. If that’s you, go for it! If not, that’s totally ok too. Your audience wants real which is what makes it so easy to build and grow your business authentically using Pinterest.
