183 Why and When to Hire Pinterest Management
Are you struggling to know when to hire someone to manage your Pinterest account? In this episode I’m breaking down some of the top questions we get in our discovery calls to help you make the decision before booking a call. I once heard someone on a podcast say, I believe it was Dan Miller, that when you get a question more than 3 times you create a product. I took that concept here and thought, instead of a product, let’s just share the answers in a podcast. For the last six years I’ve been working as a service provider in the Pinterest management industry. I have learned countless lessons on how to work with people, when to work with people, and especially how to help people evaluate if it’s time to hire someone. At simple pin we are very picky about who we work with. We want to take in the whole picture of their business, how often they create content, images, business plans, goals, etc. This is not a place where you roll up and we take you. No way. I care too much about your business to think of it that way. All the Pinterest stars have to align for us to move forward in a contract. I’m giving you a sneak peek behind the scenes as to the top questions we get in our discovery calls and how we answer them. I hope this episode will help you determine why, when and who you should hire to manage your Pinterest account.
