Hey, everyone! In this episode, I’m joined by Kristin Larsen: Pinterest expert, course creator, and founder of Believe In a Budget. Blogging wasn’t an easy journey for Kristin until she discovered the power of Pinterest as a search engine to drive traffic to her websites. Check out this episode to hear Kristin’s journey from blogger to VA to course creator, and how you can use her strategies to skyrocket your own traffic. Pinterest virtual assistance turned into this new opportunity which I never thought -- in a million years -- would be a thing. Episode Quotes "Pinterest was my favorite thing, I love looking at Pins." "I want to be able to give my clients something instead of saying, 'No, I can't help you.'" "The main challenge was conveying my message in the easiest way possible." "It's important to always update and let your audience know. The more you communicate the better." "It just feels so good knowing that I am helping other people through the stories I shared."
