Secondly, the Pin Planner opens you up to a wide range of engagement metrics to help you fine-tune your Pinterest for business marketing strategy. 

Key Metrics

• Impressions: Impressions show the events for all Pins with the same image and link to your claimed domain. (Analyzing your impressions will allow you to see which Pins are performing better than others.)
• Saves: This metric allows for you to see the number of times a specific Pin has been ‘saved’ by others as well as when a user on the platform “re-shares” or “re-Pins” content that has been created.
• Link Clicks: With link clicks, you can view the total number of times people on Pinterest have clicked through to the URL on your Pins.

The Pin Planner is extremely easy to use. It’s designed as a helpful tool that makes planning, scheduling, and marketing on Pinterest a breeze.

The Pin Planner can help you plan days, weeks, or even months of engaging and thoughtful Pinterest content. You’ll also be able to keep track of how your Pins are performing. Analytics play a huge role in understanding your Pinterest following and how to effectively communicate with them. And with a Pinterest Business Account, you’ll be able to dissect even more in-depth analytics to grow your business.

By upgrading to a Pinterest business account, you’ll have access to additional metric insights. Along with the metrics mentioned above, a business account grants you access to the Your Audience, Detailed Content Data, and Board Overview features.

Campaigns for Pin Planner

Our ‘Campaigns’ feature allows you to create a series of campaigns that will help you map out a dedicated schedule of images that are related to the same Pin description. 

With ‘Campaigns,’ you’ll be able to create as many Pins as you want using the same title, description, and URL. The very first uploaded image will always be the first to be published with the option to also SHUFFLE images in order to redistribute your content across your boards. You’ll also be able to pause, delete, or complete a ‘Campaign.’ Learn more about creating ‘Campaigns’ here.

Review Insights 

Reviewing your analytics on the Pin Planner will allow you to view user trends within Pinterest. It’s not always easy to know what your customers are looking for or inspired by. But with Pin Planner insights, you can find out exactly which of your boards are getting the most engagement and detailed data and which of your Pins are performing best. 

Saves/Clicks

Reviewing saves and clicks with the Pin Planner can help you understand what type of content to prioritize on Pinterest. Content on Pinterest is always discoverable. So a great way to approach the marketing benefits of the Pin Planner is by reviewing your saves both immediately and over time. Trends on Pinterest typically begin to take shape months in advance. You can trend forecast with your own Pins and Boards!
