VERY IMPORTANT! Have you noticed your affiliate revenue going down? There's a reason for that... We've identified a leakage to Skool Network from personal user profiles. Thanks Fire Games!! an invite only community - so here you all go a personal invite We've dubbed this a "Gremlin Tax" as when someone clicks to join a community from your profile, this is attributed to the Skool Network, not to US or any other affiliate. If you have Growth Boost turned ON, this could mean you lose 30-70% of ALL the income from group members attributed to the Skool Network this way. This is a LIFE TIME TAX as once the attribution is set, it cannot be reset for that Skool container. This is why @Des Dreckett recommended that we NOT tag someone and then Tag their community - because if you go to their profile then click on their community - you don't get credit for them joining - this has been going on for a VERY long time. To mitigate against this leak, we're asking all new friends to TURN OFF visibility for our group from your profile on entry. (I've turned it off for all of the communities I'm part of) I'll put a link in the classroom for all of the communities and my affiliate link to them - but if you've already joined a community because of skool's policies it won't matter if you use my link or not - they will get the credit ON TOP OF YOU PAYING THEM FOR YOUR COMMUNITY & THE MONEY FOR PROCESSING We appreciate your co-operation as it allows us to ensure all members introduced to help grow our community are correctly attributed & reimbursed fairly for the contribution! Here is how to do that: go to your profile (the picture in the upper right hand corner) next choose profile, then click on the membership visibility and then turn them ALL off - Feel free to invite people to this community - use your affiliate link I pay 40%

Good morning Jill. I have a question. Does re-pinning other peoples pins to your boards help you become more visible on Pinterest

I started a brand-new Pinterest account using the exact method I teach here 👀 I wanted to test this from scratch. No established account. No big following. No years of Pinterest history. Just a brand-new Hobo Homesteading account set up the way I encourage you to set yours up inside The Intentional Pin. ✨ 7 very intentional boards ✨ No random topics ✨ Every single pin created using the Intentional Pin Creation Tool ✨ Every pin built around content I had already created That last part is the whole point. Most Pinterest strategies start with: 👉 “What should I create for Pinterest?” I start with: 👉 “What have I already created that deserves to be found?” Then we find the searches that fit it and create pins around that. And here’s something I really want newer Pinterest users to know… When you open a brand-new account, it is VERY normal to see a whole lot of: 0 0 0 0 0 😅 That doesn’t automatically mean you’re doing anything wrong. Pinterest is still figuring out: 📌 What your account is about 📌 What your boards are about 📌 What your pins are about 📌 Who should be seeing them That’s why the setup matters so much. Instead of throwing random pins onto random boards and hoping something works, I wanted to give Pinterest really clear signals from day one. And already, this little account is starting to move. It’s generated 972 impressions so far, with some days over 100 impressions on a very new account. No follow-for-follow. No giant pinning schedule. No creating endless content just for Pinterest. Just: 🌱 Create something worth finding 🔎 Find how people are searching for it 📌 Create the right pin 🗂️ Put it on the right board 🔁 Repeat Hobo Homesteading is basically my little Pinterest laboratory right now 😂 And I’ll keep sharing what happens as it grows. Pinterest, a new way. Start with the content you already have. Then help the right people find it. 💜

This is the Intentional Pin Sharing space for Pins related to home, DIY projects, homesteading and creating a home and life you love. This might include home décor, organization, cleaning, DIY projects, home improvement, simple living, homesteading, self-sufficiency, food preservation, raising animals, farmhouse living, household projects, decorating, crafts for the home or similar topics. Share Your Pin Add your Pin to the comments on the sharing post. Include: Pin title: Pinterest link: What it's about: One sentence is plenty. You can also add the Pin image to your comment so people can see it at a glance, but that's completely optional. Keep it simple. You don't need to write a whole new post about your Pin. Browse Intentionally If Home, DIY & Homesteading overlaps with your own content and Pinterest boards, take a look through the Pins other members have shared. When you find something that's genuinely relevant to your audience and would naturally belong on one of your boards, click through to Pinterest and save it. There is no required reciprocity. You don't need to save someone's Pin because they saved yours, and you don't need to save something simply because another community member created it. Never save a Pin just to help the creator. Save it because it helps your audience. That's what keeps this useful for everyone—and keeps the content you're saving relevant to the Pinterest presence you're building. Share intentionally. Save intentionally. Pin smarter. 📌

You do not need to create an entirely separate content strategy for Pinterest. Your best pin ideas may already be hiding inside the articles, podcast episodes, videos, products, and resources you’ve created. In this new video, I walk you through the complete process of using the Intentional Pin Creation Tool to turn one Substack article into multiple strategic pin opportunities. You’ll learn how to: - Add your existing content and Pinterest boards to the tool - Find searches that connect with what your audience is already looking for - Generate pin headlines, titles, descriptions, and visual directions - Create polished, Canva-style images with ChatGPT - Use Pinterest’s bubble-search method for additional keyword ideas - Name and upload your pins so Pinterest understands them - Choose the most relevant board and related topics - Download your plan and stagger your pins throughout the week I also show you the early results from my brand-new Hobo Homesteading Pinterest account - all created using this same process. The goal isn’t to pin more random things and hope something works. It’s to intentionally connect content you’ve already created with people who are actively searching for it. 🌿 Watch the new training, then tell me in the comments: What piece of content would you like to turn into Pinterest pins first?
