Let’s be real—Pinterest might still have a reputation for wedding inspo and midlife kitchen renos, but if that’s all you think it’s good for, you’re missing out on a seriously powerful marketing machine.
To help us dust off the glitter glue and turn Pinterest into a traffic-driving, lead-generating engine, I’m joined by Megan Williamson, founder of Pin Potential Inc. and Pinterest’s unofficial (but very official) queen bee. With over a decade of hands-on experience and a seal of approval from Pinterest itself, Megan has helped thousands of business owners go from pinning recipes to pinning down real revenue.
Today, we’re diving into the truth about Pinterest as a long-game strategy, why it outperforms social for discoverability, and how you can start getting results with the content you already have. If you’re a course creator, podcaster, or community builder who’s tired of shouting into the Instagram void—this one’s for you.
🎯 HERE ARE 3 JUICY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:
1️⃣ Repurpose With Purpose – Learn Megan’s easy system for turning your top-performing content into Pinterest traffic magnets (spoiler: you already have everything you need).
2️⃣ The Pinterest Snowball Effect – Discover how to start small, gain momentum, and create evergreen content that keeps working for you long after you post it.
3️⃣ Don’t Just Pin It—Convert It – Find out why your high-traffic pins might be flopping when it comes to opt-ins, and what to do differently to actually convert cold Pinterest traffic into warm leads.
