of their needs, problems, interests, etc.

STEP THREE:

Find out what

your

competitors

are doing

- How are they interacting with their

audiences or potential customers?

- What can you do differently, newer,

better, faster…?

STEP FOUR:

Brand your images.

- Use your company logo so you’re more easily

recognized.

- Be careful with copyright laws.

- Size matters on Pinterest. Make sure your

pins are at least 800×1200 pixels.

- Humanize your content by showing how your

customers are using your products and

services.

STEP FIVE:

tell them why they should follow you.

linking to each network on your website, in your

email signatures, and in all your marketing

materials.
