The best way I found to do this was through watching popular authors.<\/p><p><strong>I\u2019d first make a board for the book using none of your own pins, only grabbing pins you find on Pinterest<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p><p>Especially if they&#8217;re popular and have a lot of views, your board will start to show up in some searches when people are also looking for similar things.<\/p><p>Making boards showcasing your visions and descriptions is just an added bonus to connect your readers to your thought process and help build hype for your book.<\/p><p>Once you&#8217;ve saved pins that are currently on Pinterest posted by someone else and have some traction, it&#8217;s time to make your own!<\/p><p>When it comes to pinning, you need to be creating content somewhere else for it to be most useful.<\/p><p>For example, if you have <a href=\"https:\/\/booklinker.com\/blog\/lead-magnets-and-nurture-sequences\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"11\">lead magnets<\/a>, design a pin that is an ad for your lead magnet.\u00a0<\/p><p>That way when someone clicks on your pin they can be led straight to it and you just gained another <a href=\"https:\/\/booklinker.com\/blog\/email-marketing-for-authors\/\">email<\/a>.<\/p><p>Think of your pins as a search engine billboard. You can have your pins lead straight to your listing on Amazon to gain sales, your social media accounts if you&#8217;re trying to gain followers, and if you write a blog, design a pin to lead the reader to your website.\u00a0<\/p><p>Make a pin for anything you\u2019d like to lead your readers
