Why and when should I hire Pinterest account manager?

This is a question we hear quite often in our discovery calls. In fact, it is probably the #1 question we hear. People just aren’t sure why they would want to hire out their Pinterest management. Even if they want to, they aren’t sure when is the right time. 

I once heard someone say that when you get the same question more than three times, you should create a product. Instead of creating a product, I’m going to share the answers here with you.

Is a Pinterest Account Manager Right for Your Business?

The How, When, and Who 

I have been working as a service provider in the Pinterest management industry for the last six years and I have learned countless lessons. I hope to be able to continue to share those lessons on the podcast, but some of the main lessons I’ve learned are: 

• How to work with people 


• When to work with people 


• Who we should be working with. 


At Simple Pin Media, we are very picky about who we work with. 

We consider the whole picture of our clients’ business — how often they create content and images, what their business plans are, what their business goals are, etc. Our Pinterest management agency is not a place where we just take on anyone who shows up. 

I care way too much about other people’s businesses, (probably sometimes too much!) to think of my job that lightly. All the Pinterest stars have to align for us to move forward to sign an agreement to work together.

Creating Magic through Teamwork 

Why do I feel this way? 

I don’t want to waste OUR time and I don’t want to waste YOUR time. 


If we can come together in a great way, and both our businesses are able to work fluidly together, magic will happen. 

Our decision to be selective regarding who we take on as clients leads to greater retention rates, and better results that take the form of:

* traffic growth

* product sales

* email subscriptions.

That is what we want to see. 

Why Should I Hire Someone to Manage My Pinterest Account? 

Why SHOULD I hire a Pinterest account manager?

Great question. There are three reasons why people hire someone to manage a service for them: 

• to save time 


• they don’t know what they’re doing 


• the person you are hiring can take things to the next level for you.

I am not a micromanager. I believe that micromanaging kills all creativity. When you try to tell someone who is skilled how to do their job, they will either fire you or they will stop performing at their best. 

I have a house cleaner. I can clean my own house but I hire someone to clean my house because I don’t want to. I hate cleaning. I work full-time and hiring someone allows me to focus on what I need to be focused on. 

My house cleaner comes every two weeks and I want to sing her praises every time she comes. Some of you might feel this way about Pinterest. 

What Will They Do For Me? 

What can you do that I can’t do for myself? 

If you’re using Pinterest, you love it, you’ve taken all the Pinterest courses, and you’re working on it 5-7 hours a week,
