How to Become a Pinterest Virtual Assistant With No Experience
/Starting our Pinterest agency completely changed my life.
I went from working in a corporate job that I could not stand to building a business that truly lights me up.
After having people slide into my DMs for two years straight asking how to start a Pinterest agency, in 2022 we rolled out The Pinterest VA School. The Pinterest VA School is the exact roadmap to building a Pinterest virtual assistant business that brings in $4,000 - $10,000 a month.
In this post, I’m hoping to share with you how you can get started as a Pinterest virtual assistant with little to no experience.
First things first, what is a Pinterest Virtual Assistant?
Now that we know what a Pinterest virtual assistant is, let’s break down what you need to know to get started in the space.
Step 1: Understand Pinterest
To become a Pinterest virtual assistant, you must first become proficient in using Pinterest. Familiarize yourself with the platform, its features, and its audience. Create your Pinterest account, pin regularly, and gain a deep understanding of how pins, boards, and group boards work.
This is the main reason WHY The Pinterest VA School exists, so you can have the complete roadmap to Pinterest + building a business.
Step 2: Develop Relevant Skills
To excel as a Pinterest virtual assistant, you need a specific skill set. These skills include:
Graphic Design: Creating eye-catching pins is crucial. Familiarize yourself with graphic design tools like Canva to craft appealing pins.
Content Creation: Write engaging pin descriptions and create content that resonates with your client's target audience.
Analytics: Understand Pinterest analytics to measure the effectiveness of your efforts and make data-driven decisions.
SEO: Learn about Pinterest SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to optimize pin descriptions and keywords for better visibility.
Step 3: Define Your Packages + Offer Your Services
Market yourself as a Pinterest virtual assistant. You can create a website or use freelancing platforms like Upwork, Fiverr, or Freelancer to advertise your services. Clearly outline what services you offer, your pricing structure, and your portfolio on these platforms.
Step 4: Continuous Learning
Pinterest is constantly evolving, so it's essential to stay updated with the latest changes and trends. Join Pinterest-related forums, read blogs, and consider taking online courses to sharpen your skills.
