How to Make The Switch From Board Booster To Tailwind?
First, let’s make this easy on you.
Imagine getting to Pin ALL the content you dream of without having to leave your browser, save photos and not have to re-upload them to get them on Pinterest.
Dreamy, right?
Tailwind created a Chrome Browser Extension to that make sharing content so simple. You can just click a button that automatically pops up when you hover your mouse over an image, and just like that, the right content is in your queue. If you use Safari or Firefox browsers, Tailwind has an extension for that too!
If it sounds like a lot. I promise it’s super simple. Just click this button to add the extension to your browser and then follow the steps.
Once you have signed up for Tailwind, follow along:
1. Click the “Drafts” Tab
2. Then Click “Chrome Extension” and add it to your browser.
3. Start pinning drafts to your queue and Tribes with ease. Whenever you’re reading a blog post that you want to pin a graphic from, you can just click the ‘Schedule With Tailwind’ button that will pop up when you hover over an image.
So.good.

If You Used Campaigns…Now Do This:
If you were like me, and liked to use campaigns when you were doing a launch to help get content relevant to your launch, and your lead magnets in front of more eyes, then I have the answer for you.
Board Lists Are Your New Bestie.
With board lists, you can collect all your relevant board easily by category. That way when you want to do a push for a certain post, to a bunch of board with a similar topic, you can easily do that.
To get started, head to the sidebar in Tailwind and click ‘Board Lists’
From there, click on the grey box to create your new List. This will be a list of boards that all have similar kinds of content.
Need more boards to get added to? Request to be added to my boards if they’re the right boards for you, and follow the instructions at the top of the board to be added.

The most successful companies are data driven. If you want to know HOW to improve your strategies than you need to know where to improve- and advanced analytics help you clearly see where you’re making an impact, on Pinterest.
Using the analytics tool, you can see your top performing pins, boards, and even how other pinners’ pins are performing since it is no longer visible within the native Pinterest app.
Tribes
