Episode Details

If you've been wondering whether Pinterest is still worth your time and money in 2026, this episode is for you (my answer will surprise you).

I run a Pinterest marketing agency — it's one of the main services I sell — and I am telling more business owners to WAIT on Pinterest than I ever have. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly why, what needs to be in place before Pinterest can actually work for your business, and how to know when you're ready.

This isn't about scaring you off the platform. Pinterest is still one of the best long-game visibility tools out there for the right business. But it's not the missing piece for everyone — and I'd rather be honest with you upfront than take your money and leave you frustrated.

🎙️ In This Episode:

• The reason Pinterest traffic doesn't always turn into clients
• What six to twelve months actually feels like (and why most people quit too soon)
• The foundation piece most business owners are missing
• Why I'll probably tell you to do something else first
• Pricing, ROI, and the question I get asked most
• The real answer to "should I be on Pinterest right now?"
