SCRIPT
“Pinterest is about the future. It is the only platform whose vision is forward facing. It is not about sharing the past or reading about the present. It is about writing your own, personal narrative - where you want to take yourself. Influenced by those with similar goals, interests & needs.”
SCRIPT:
“Pinning is a prelude, showing us how Pinners are planning and organizing their lives. Every Pin is intentional, but more importantly, every Pin is a signal. From getting ready for a newborn to saving for a new smartphone, Pinners are raising their hands -- letting us know what they care about, what they will be doing, and what they will be buying.”
SCRIPT:
“As you can see, our pinners futures are broad & distinct. From marriage to a weekend movie. From buying a car to buying a new shampoo. From getting ready for retirement to saving for the next smartphone. Pinners are planning EVERY aspect of their future.”
NOTE: Can be customized by client based on your vertical.
SCRIPT:
“For marketers, all this future planning sets Pinterest apart from other platforms. No where else are consumers as emphatically and authentically declaring their commercial intent. No where else are marketers as integral and organic to the experience.”
SCRIPT:
“Not only is your brand welcome, but it’s essential. 2/3 of all content on Pinterest is Pinned from brand sites. Without brands - without your brand - there is no Pinterest.”
SCRIPT:
“By promoting your brand you can tap into this mindset, reaching the right audience, with the right message at the right time.”
NOTE: You can customize the Pin screen by client. Show the Pin in a feed view on mobile.
SCRIPT:
“Our pinners’ future orientation also allows you to learn more about your brand from them.”
NOTE: You can customize the Pin screen and boards by client. The phone screen should be the Pin close-up view from the previous feed view. Show a variety of use cases when showing the boards.
SCRIPT:
“Taking advantage of what is in effect the world’s largest, most actionable focus group. Pinners are telling you the best way to message your brand - if it’s loved, enjoyed, relevant. They are showing you how to organize your products and services into their lives. They are planning how to use your product and if there is demand for you to bring them something new.”
NOTE: Use the same boards used in the previous slide. Show a variety of use cases when showing the boards.
