Creating engaging Pins!
As you know social media networks changes constantly and Pinterest is no exception.
This year, Pinterest has updated its algorithm to favor new, original and relevant content.

That’s why I’m so excited to introduce you to Tailwind Create, a brand new Pin design tool by Tailwind.
By the end of this piece, you’ll know exactly how to make designer-quality pins (fast and easy) , streamline and schedule your Pinterest with minimal effort.
What’s more, you can also use Tailwind Create to create Facebook posts, Instagram Feed posts and Instagram Stories.

Let’s see how it can help you.
What is Tailwind Create?
Tailwind is the best Pinterest marketing tool that allows you to bulk schedule pins for days, weeks and even months in advance. Till recently, Tailwind released a new workflow-changing tool called Tailwind Create.
Tailwind Create is the easiest and fastest way to create social posts for Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest that will actually get you results!
This tool takes the guesswork out of design and allows you to turn your existing content into gorgeous, branded posts in just a few clicks.
It’s a real time-saver.
But, why Tailwind Create?
While there are tons of image editing tools like Canva which you can use to create beautiful Pinterest Pins, most of them comes with limited templates for Pinterest.
Not only that, you have to manually create each Pin, one-by-one.
Generally, they cater for everyone, allowing you to create everything from social media posts to book covers, ads, infographics, and all types of graphic you can think of.
But Tailwind Create is different.
It’s built specifically for Pinterest, Instagram and Facebook. And it’s meant to be used by social media marketers, freelancers and bloggers.
If I were to describe Tailwind Create in One Word, it’s: Speed.
With other tools, you’re looking at a few hours just to complete multiple Pinterest Pins.
But, with Tailwind Create, you can have personalized, unique and creative graphics for Pinterest in a couple of minutes.
For bloggers with little time on their hands, this can be a real blessing.
For instance, it usually takes me 1 hour to create 10-15 new pins on Canva.
With this handy tool, I can easily get the work done faster and better in just 10 minutes!
What’s great, I can then schedule the pins, plan my content ahead of time and publish it automatically on Pinterest, directly from my Tailwind account.
