Marketing Plan for Pinterest

by |Published

It’s been a while since I last wrote here.

I have been really busy with online work and life. During those times, I was thinking of ways to help aspiring virtual freelancers so I put up different social media marketing plans. This article is a marketing plan for Pinterest for you to be able to generate more followers and in return get more clients for the services you offer. I’ve created a 1, 3 and 6 month plan for you to get an idea on how it differs. If you have any questions, you can email me at rjbuarao[at]theperfectarmy.com.
