The Most Common Reason for
NOT Investing in Pinterest…
“I can’t justify the
ROI vs. Facebook or Twitter
where we have more followers.”
33. @PinLeague #AAF 954-505-8008
The Marginal Cost of Growth on
Pinterest is Lower then Facebook
$0.01 – 0.40 $0.50 – 2.50
So, the issue must be critical mass

Editor's Notes
Synopsis Pinterest is the fastest growing social network of all time, and possibly the single largest untapped opportunity for internet marketers today. While some have dived into the Pinterest ecosystem, many are taking a "wait and see" approach. In this session, Daniel Maloney, CEO & Co-Founder of PinLeague.com, will explain why he and his clients have dived into Pinterest- and why you might regret it if you don't do so soon. Topics covered will include: Why Pinterest is great for brands (beyond the obvious) Fundamental differences between Pinterest and other prominent social networks A sure fire recipe to get 1,000 targeted followers in 30 Days, and Advanced tactics used by GetPinterestFollowers.com to reach 500k followers in just 10 weeks
