The problem it solves

Creating Pinterest pins one at a time is slow, and it is easy to lose track of which ones you already posted. Copying titles, descriptions, links, and images by hand also invites mistakes, especially when you are publishing in batches.

Who it fits

A content marketer or small business posting a steady stream of pins to Pinterest.

How it works

  1. Starts when you run it against your Google Sheet of planned pins
  2. Skips any rows already marked as published
  3. Checks that each row has the title, description, link, and image it needs
  4. Downloads the image and submits the pin to Pinterest for publishing
  5. Writes the result back into the sheet so you know what went out
What you get

Pins published straight from your spreadsheet

Your planned pins get published to Pinterest straight from your spreadsheet, with the results logged for you.

What you get

Published Pinterest pins and an updated spreadsheet showing which ones went live.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, a Pinterest account, and a Pinterest publishing service subscription, such as PinBridge.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
