<13:22> “Pinterest really is totally different. It's not a social platform. I mentioned earlier, it's for introverts.”

<16:22> “You don't just want to start pinning content that leads to your homepage or landing pages because they don't do as well. So make sure that you're continuing and thinking about ways that you can provide content that educates your audience and provides value.”

<22:06> “A really important strategy that you can have to increase the clicks to your website is creating many graphics for blog posts.”
