We are past the point where brands need “presence” on every new social network. Successful marketing has always been based on picking a few focused areas to

invest time and money, and social should be no different. Pinterest is for women who are interested in: Food, Fashion, Fitness, Beauty, Décor, Crafts, Babies, Kids,

Pets and Travel.
