Welcome to the latest platform to make headlines, the wonderful world of Pinterest! It seems like everyone’s talking about it, and it seems as though everyone is pinning. It’s the latest and greatest social media tool, and this virtual pinboard social site is absolutely stunning.
But wait a sec… hit snooze on the hype button for just a moment. Do you have to join Pinterest for your business?
Oh my gosh look how fast it’s growing. I better get to pinning or I’ll get left behind.
When do I have time to pin? I can hardly keep up with my other social media sites.
