Today With Cathy Heflin: Hi, welcome to a Well-Designed Business. We all know that Pinterest is a valuable tool for designers. But how you use it matters. It’s about so much more than just tossing up pretty pictures like on Instagram—in fact, in many ways, it seems like it’s more of a search engine than another social media platform. We have so many marketing tools that we can add to our toolbox. Today, my guest, Cathy Heflin, is here to teach more about how Pinterest can help businesses grow, and how to put it to work for your business.

LuAnn Nigara and Cathy Heflin's Ah-Ha Moments “We have to view Pinterest as a search engine like Google and YouTube, which automatically puts it into way more valuable real estate for our brains, our energy, our money, and our advertising or marketing dollars.” -LuAnn “Done is better than perfect. Get that content up so that you can start to have something to pin to and have places to send your clients.” -Cathy More About Cathy Heflin Cathy Heflin is a Pinterest Marketing Consultant and Strategist.
