Who this is for

When Pinterest advertising deserves a place in your plan

  • Buyers plan without seeing you

    Your customers collect ideas for a kitchen, a wedding or a wardrobe long before choosing who to buy from, and Pinterest is one place they do it. If your products are missing there, a rival's products fill the space.

  • Saves reported as the result

    Your Pins collect saves, and the monthly report stops there. A save shows someone planning; the purchase may come months later or never, and only tracking that follows the click to your checkout or CRM shows which.

  • Seasonal demand met too late

    Your trade peaks at Christmas, in wedding season or when garden projects start, but your ads go live as orders arrive. People search Pinterest for those moments months ahead, while they plan.

  • Aimed at profiles, not plans

    Your Pinterest campaigns reuse the audience settings from your other social ads, so they reach people by who they are. The keywords your buyers type into Pinterest while planning what you sell go untargeted.

What we do

  • How Pinterest matches ads to what people plan

    Pinterest is closer to a visual search engine than to a social feed. People type what they are planning, from a bathroom makeover to a summer menu, and save the ideas worth returning to. Ads appear as Pins among those results, so we design them to belong there.

    Alongside interests, a campaign can target the keywords people search and the ideas they save, reaching someone by what they plan rather than only who they are. Seasonal searches begin months before the purchase, so timing matters as much as keywords.

What our Pinterest ads management covers

Pinterest ads management has five parts; your goal decides which comes first.

  1. Keyword and interest targeting

    Keyword sets built from what your buyers search for and save on Pinterest, with interest targeting alongside, grouped by what people are planning.

  2. Pins made for the platform

    Standard, video and carousel Pins built to sit naturally among the ideas people browse, designed in-house or drawn from your product photography and brand imagery.

  3. Shopping ads from your catalogue

    Your product catalogue turned into shoppable Pins, shown to people searching for ideas and judged on the sales they bring, not saves.

  4. A seasonal calendar

    Campaigns timed to when your buyers start searching for each season or occasion, often months ahead, so Pins are live before demand peaks.

  5. Following up saves

    People who saved or clicked your Pins without buying see further ads while they are still planning.

  • How our Pinterest advertising agency judges results

    Saves, outbound clicks and cost per result are Pinterest's own measures, which we read as diagnostics. The verdict comes from your analytics and CRM, where server-side tracking and tagged links reveal the enquiries, bookings and sales each campaign produced. Your dashboard sets Pinterest spend against the leads, cost per lead and revenue it returns, and each month we review it with you and agree what changes. If Pinterest is not working for you, we tell you plainly and move its budget elsewhere.

  • Where Pinterest sits in our paid media

    People gather ideas on Pinterest, often before looking for a business to buy from, and turn to search once ready to choose. We run Pinterest within PPC Management, beside your search ads and SEO, so the two are planned together around the same buyer.

    Whether Pinterest advertising suits you is settled in Paid Social, which starts from who buys from you. It fits buyers who research at length before a considered purchase: home improvement, interiors, weddings, fashion, food and travel. We also run it for Shopify stores and Etsy sellers. For B2B, LinkedIn usually fits better, and we recommend one or two platforms to begin with.

How it works

How we build and run a Pinterest campaign

  • Step 1 of 4: Map searches and seasons

    We research what your buyers search for on Pinterest and when each season's planning starts, review any existing ad account and send written findings before anything changes.

  • Step 2 of 4: Build Pins ahead of demand

    Before your buyers start planning, Pins are designed for each keyword theme, tracking is tested and a Shopify catalogue is linked through the Pinterest app for Shopify. The Pinterest ad account, opened by us or taken over, is in your name and yours to keep when the work ends.

  • Step 3 of 4: Reach planners, then savers

    Prospecting on keywords and interests goes live first. As people save and click, retargeting follows up, and budget shifts towards the Pins that bring enquiries and sales.

  • Step 4 of 4: Test, then plan next season

    We test Pin designs, copy and formats throughout, pausing weaker ones. Monthly reviews with you cover sales and enquiries and include planning the next seasonal campaign, well before its window opens.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

A business pays for Pins that Pinterest places in search results and among the ideas people browse. Campaigns are aimed through keywords, interests and saved ideas, and Pinterest shows each Pin to people whose searches and saves fit.

Yes, and its ads meet people differently from most social ads. Pinterest behaves less like a feed and more like a visual search engine, so ads reach people looking for ideas rather than scrolling past posts. Formats include standard, video and carousel Pins, plus shopping ads.

Start from the searches your buyers make, then build targeting, Pins and tracking around them. If you hire a Pinterest ads agency, ask who makes those decisions. Ours are made by media buyers with 8+ years' experience, who use AI tools to analyse trends and audience data but make every creative and targeting decision themselves.

With Pins that lead to your Etsy listings, aimed at the keywords buyers search while planning, from a wedding to a Christmas present. We run Pinterest ads for Etsy sellers, building Pins from your listing photos, timing campaigns to the season and judging them on sales rather than saves.

Through shopping ads built from your store's catalogue, which we connect using the Pinterest app for Shopify so your products appear as shoppable Pins. Conversion tracking runs from the first day, and the sales and revenue those ads bring are reconciled against your analytics, with saves and clicks read as diagnostics.

As long as your buyers take to plan, which on Pinterest can mean months before a season or occasion. Saves and outbound clicks give an early sign that a Pin appeals; sales, the real test, come as plans turn into purchases. Nobody controls that timing, so we promise neither a date nor a result.
