create posts quickly and schedules easily
I do not dislike anything about this software
Create posts quickly and schedule them in advance.
I love that I can easily schedule all my week on Pinterest in one sitting. Tailwind has a lot of great tools to take your Pinterest marketing to the next level. One of my favorite tools is the pin design!!
One thing that I don't like about Tailwind is that is hard to find a good group in the communities. Almost all communities I joined are really low engagement and full of spam.
First of all, I can save a lot of time not only on designing my pins but also on posting. Before I used to post manually all the pins every day. With Tailwind I can make this more fast and easy. I can schedule all week in one hour.
I love that Tailwind automatically creates beautiful pins automatically for my shop items and can schedule them in just a few clicks. I don't have to sit for hours and hours hand making all the graphics in photoshop.
I dislike how slow and clunky the Tailwind site can load when you are automating pin creation. I know it requires a lot of the app to make these graphics but it can freeze up and be slow at times.
I am using Tailwind to quickly automatically create pins to promote my product. It has saved me hours and hours of time, not having to create all these graphics myself.
Writing classes instead of CSS - I thought it's bad until I tried it. Now I cant do styling without tailwindcss, and I use it everyday and on every project. Approach works great and tailwindcss keeps getting better.
Has a little learning curve, but not a big issue though.
Writing less css and it never ship more then its needed.
The autoposting feature is definitely my favorite part. Being able to a plan and schedule my posts in advance has been a game changer for my business.
I don't like that you can't select a "cover" for videos when auto posting. This sometimes leads to a "blank" appearing post on the feeds.
I have solved the problem of time management with Tailwind. I have also been able to curate content in a way that gives my pages a more professional look. I have been able to put that time into creating relevant content and plan posts in advance for important days.
Tailwind is a great tool. I use it for Pinterest and in only in the first month, my engagement went 50% up! The best part is that I take around 30 minutes per week to set some pins and Tailwind does the rest. Of course, you need to organize and optimize your boards yourself first. But that's the thing: once your business Pinterest account is set up, Tailwind takes it to another level! There are also the Tailwind Tribes. There you look for your niche and you enter the so-called tribes. Once you are part of them, you can post some of your content there for other members to "repin". And, of course, you do the same: you repin the content from other users! There's a counter which shows how many pins you have repinned and how many pins you have submitted, so it's pretty easy to control the tribes you are in, if you're being fair to the other users and etc. The insights are also great, we can check the best-performing pins and repin them easily. Now, what really surprised me is the team. They send some really helpful emails, free templates and incredible tips for making better and better pins!
Sometimes the drafts page gets too slow. I don't know if it's my connection or if I upload too many images at the same time. But, this is not compared to the results Tailwind delivers.
Subscribing to Tailwind PLUS is like hiring a person to do the job on Pinterest, but better. Tailwind is certified by Pinterest, so they know how things work. Once I create my pins, write my description and set the links, Tailwind does the scheduling and it spreads the content throughout the week/month. There's an option to set a minimum interval, which is great too! My engagement and traffic are boosting in a very fast way since I started using Tailwind 3 months ago. The best benefit, apart from the engagement and reach, is that I don't have to worry about posting pins anymore. I used to set reminders on my cellphone, 3 times per day, to go to Pinterest and pin something (yes...). Now I can use this time to focus on other things. Another good thing is that the pins can be reposted to Twitter. So I'm automatically feeding my twitter at the same time!
Tailwind is most helpful with pinning my pins from Pinterest at the best and most likely time for my audience to see. As much as I love to pin post myself I can't spend all day going back and forth to Pinterest but Tailwind takes away the stress by pinning for me! Plus the tailwind extension really helps it's just a click and BAM! My pins are added to the Queue. I love the new feature of being able to edit my Pins through Tailwind now. Sometimes I may forget or may want to add something to my pin to make it even better and now Tailwind has made that possible. I also use the Smart Loop feature which allows you to post specific topics to particular boards consistently. You can choose to have those topics posts yearly or seasonal so that way old pins can be reused as new ever so often! Tailwind is a huge help in growing my business :).
My only downside is that I wished I used it sooner for my business because most of my traffic comes from Pinterest because of Tailwind.
I noticed that using the Tailwind Tribes have been very beneficial because now an even wider range of people can view my site and posts. At first I wasn't sure how it would help but so many people post their that if you spend time actually using it your audience will grow.
Super easy, efficient and improves stats
I have nothing bad to say or any dislikes
It has increased my followers and is starting to help increase my engagement by allowing me to post regularly without having to be glued to the website or Pinterest app. I like that it shows me which pins are doing well and which aren't and allows me to filter through the ones that cam specifically from my website. I love having the tribes as well. It helps me get my content out a little faster and adds to my views then converts them into an engagement.
The ability to batch my work, I can spend one day a month to schedule my whole month. It chooses the best schedule to post your pins based on their "smart schedule" analytics. Just by being consistent on the tool, you are guaranteed growth.
I wish I could toggle between Tailwind accounts (kind of like toggling on Instagram between accounts) because I have multiple clients and they each have their own account. You CAN toggle between Pinterest accounts if they are all on one Tailwind account but you cannot toggle between Tailwind accounts.
Tailwind has helped me build dozens of accounts quickly. I've hit over 1 Million monthly views with all my accounts by being consistent on Tailwind. You can't get that many impressions on Facebook or Instagram now without ads.
Tailwind is one of the only products I have used since creating this business with my friend that has GREAT tutorials. Anything we wanted to know about the product - there was a tutorial. We have seen so much success in our Pinterest viewers reaching out to our website since we starting utilizing Tailwind.
The navigation between pages is a bit complicated, but once you get the hang of it, you are fine!
We were finding it hard to find time between publishing our own information and trying to focus on our website that we couldn't find time to check our Pinterest repeatedly.
Tailwind has streamlined my workflow thru automation way beyond my expectations. My Pinterest grew by 8000% within a few months.
I have not found anything I dislike about Tailwind. Completely satisfied.
It has helped me with implementing workflow strategy into my Pinterest account.
Tailwind is the perfect social media scheduling tool to use. Both Pinterest and Instagram are worth the price.
The tailwind app could be a bit more user friendly. The desktop version is definitely my favorite.
Tailwind makes social media scheduling a breeze. I didn't realize how much time I could save using Tailwing.
Using Tailwind for my Pinterest pinning has saved me so much time. I can schedule my pins for an entire month in a couple of hours, instead of spending hours a day pinning to my boards.
It's a little confusing to learn and I still don't have a handle on all the features, but I'm getting there.
Saved me tons of time.
I love that I can engage with Tailwind and in a matter of minutes I've pinned to all my favorite boards and can now get back to creating content. That new content I'll post in Pinterest so that others can pin it and benefit from it. Tailwind allows me to spend my time creating content because it saves me time pinning to Pinterest. It finds me the kinds of posts that I want to pin to my boards. It allows me to connect with others through their Tribes component. That gets my content out to even more people to benefit from.
I'm not sure that I can use Tailwind to schedule videos. I think not. But double-check me on that because it may be possible. I'll keep checking as well. The other thing is I wish they offered my industry category which is spirtuality or spiritual wellness or spiritual growth. Any of these would do. It's not really Health, Wellness, and Fitness which is what I have to choose. And, it's definitely not religious institutions.
Time-management challenges are definitely solved with the Tailwind app.
I love how easy it is to post in social media, and to re-queue a post from my library. Saves me so much time. Also great that I can see comments without going to the post.
It is difficult to scroll down on the drafts so that I can select pinterest and Facebook. Sometimes I can see a scroll bar but not often. Also, just loaded a site update for Photographypla.net and the Tailwind logo for easy posting is missing. What's up with that? I can still right click and post.
Build visibility in social media and manage Pinterest account of 27,000 followers.
It saves me a lot of time posting on Pinterest and it gets me loads of traffic.
Hard to say yet as I have not been able to get my head around all the great features, but so far nothing negative to declare.
Saves me a lot of time and is getting me more traffic than I could have without it.
Of all the blogging tools that I've bought or subscribe to, Tailwind is the only one I use every single day. It lets me schedule a month's worth of pins in under an hour and helps me connect with other Pinners in my niche. Customer support is outstanding, and they're always adding new ways to make my life easier.
Not a thing. I can think of little features that I'd like them to add, but I am hard pressed to find something that I don't like. Maybe the price of the add-ons. They are a bit high. Especially the new auto-loop. Other than that, there isn't much to dislike.
I use it to find and schedule great pins to Pinterest, as well as promote my own posts. As far as benefits go, I've seen an increase in my Pinterest monthly views, engagement, and followers.
The ability to schedule pins and evaluate the success of my pinning strategy
I have not found a single thing I don't like. Only some areas where even greater awesomeness is possible! :)
It has been both a time-saver and a big boost to my web traffic
It saves me time. I especially like the interval spacer which lets me post the same pin, with all its keywords etc., on to different relevant boards without having it show up over and over again all at once. It feels a lot like free exposure.
I have not figured out the ad campaign strategy on pinterest and a lot of the information everywhere, including tailwind, seems directed to bloggers, who just want to drive up their numbers to attract advertising revenue. I want to get customers to my store and am working on attracting our best purchasing audience, not just visitor.
I wanted to pin regularly without spending too much time and tailwind has been perfect for that.
Tribes is by far the best part of Tailwind, but the pin scheduling tool is a close second. Having trusted and engaged people that make up the community on Tailwind means that my pins get the type of engagement and sharing that I need to increase my website traffic.
Tailwind can be kind of complicated to set up in the beginning, and this is due to the plethora of options. And how you want to use the tool. Once you find your rhythm, keeping up with scheduling takes 30 minutes once a week for me.
I am getting my blog posts shared with many more people than just my usual website visitors. This helps me understand what kind of content I should be creating more of. As well, it is a huge time saver!
