Welcome back! I have a treat for you today. I have decided to share the Tailwind tribes that have taken my Pinterest account from nothing – to around 500,000 viewers each and every month!
To be honest, it wasn’t hard. Now, it takes time and focused effort – but not hard at all!
Hard is going to a job you HATE every day! Hard is working for a boss who doesn’t appreciate you and won’t acknowledge your effort. Hard is dropping your kids off at daycare when you’d rather be a stay at home mom. Hard is leaving during the summer to go to work when your kids are home by themselves.
So, hard is relative and honestly, I would rather do the work of blogging than any of the other “hard” stuff I mentioned.
Now – if you haven’t started your blog yet you need to check out this post…

Next, you’ll need to have a Pinterest account set up before Tailwind can actually pin for you. Serious bloggers need to set up a Pinterest Business Account (no worries, it’s free!) and then set it up for “rich pins.”
Both of these elements will set you up for great success on this platform! Rich pins provide more content because they show more information directly on the pin itself! In short – you need a business account with Pinterest and rich pins! Click the links above in order to set each up. These are not affiliate links – but I truly believe in this platform and how it will help you build your online business.
Okay, let get moving…
First off, if you aren’t using Tailwind – what on earth are you waiting for? Speaking truthfully, Pinterest and Tailwind have generated more traffic to my site than ANYTHING else! Click here to get started with Tailwind and to pin your first 100 pins for FREE!
Second off, Tailwind makes your life SO much easier. You can pre-schedule all of your pins to publish to Pinterest whenever you choose – saving you gobs of time. It’s like having a personal assistant who works morning, noon and night!
If you haven’t taken the plunge with Tailwind just yet – you can do that here. With this link you’ll get your first 100 pins scheduled for FREE!
Now, let’s get to the tribes that I like the most! I am a part of 22 tribes and plan to expand that in the next few weeks by about double.
Some tribes are open and allow you to join automatically. With others, you’ll need to ask to join. Both types will be listed below and I have included links for joining each.
Here are my top 10 favorites! Keep in mind – these tribes have taken my Pinterest account from ZERO to almost 600,000 monthly viewers at the date this post was written. My followers are still lower than I’d like but I am actively working on that with several other options that I think will bring that number up. Take a look below at my monthly viewers! Not bad for about 6 months!
Here are the tribes you’ll want to check out…

Let’s close things out –
Please keep in mind that Tailwind only works IF you use the scheduler and actually fill those slots up with pins that you want to be seen on your boards.
Blogging has truly been a fun way to create income from home! If you are a newbie blogger and you are looking to expand your reach, I highly recommend Pinterest as a way of advertising your posts and content.
Next, I strongly suggest using Tailwind as a way to automatically keep your Pinterest boards active. It works as a virtual assistant in the background adding content whenever you want it added. AND Pinterest rewards you when you are active on the platform by putting your content and pins up higher in the feeds!
Don’t delay! Start your Pinterest business account and then go here to get your FREE TRIAL with the amazing app Tailwind!
Comment below with any tips you might have OR with questions about getting started. I am still learning every single day but am LOVING what my new life looks like!
Always in your corner,
Tammy
