What is Pinterest advertising

Pinterest advertising is deploying paid pins to reach people actively searching for ideas, solutions and products. Because users on Pinterest are often already in an inspired or purchase-oriented mindset, your ads appear at exactly the moment someone is open to new brands or services. With advertising on Pinterest you can increase your visibility, drive more traffic to your website and encourage conversions by tapping into intent-driven search behaviour. Advertising through Pinterest works entirely data-driven: we analyse which creative variants perform, continuously optimise and make sure every euro contributes to measurable growth.

Why it's smart to advertise on Pinterest

You want to be visible at the moments your audience is actively seeking inspiration, gathering new ideas and forming concrete purchase plans. Pinterest advertising fits that perfectly. The platform is used as a visual search engine, which means your ad appears at the moment someone is already open to new solutions. By precisely analysing behavioural intent and search patterns, we show ads that match exactly what your ideal customer needs. This way Pinterest turns from an inspiration channel into a powerful engine for qualitative traffic, leads and sales.

We work entirely data-driven. We research which keywords are relevant, which visuals drive the most engagement and where in the customer journey the biggest opportunities lie. With continuous optimisation and variant testing we make sure only campaigns that demonstrably perform get scaled up. Outsourcing Pinterest advertising means choosing an approach that isn’t just about beautiful images, but about strategic growth. This way you get structurally more results from advertising on Pinterest with the same budget and build a strong conversion funnel step by step based on intent, creativity and data.

1.

Standard Pins

Standard Pins are image ads that look like regular Pins, but are shown in a targeted way to a selected audience. They work strongly in the discovery phase, because users actively use Pinterest for inspiration. This way you increase the visibility of products or ideas while tapping into search intent and visual inspiration.

2.

Video Pins

Video Pins are short or longer video ads that immediately stand out in the feed because motion grabs attention faster than a still image. They’re ideal for demonstrating a product, setting a mood or conveying a brand story. By combining strong storytelling with visual impact you increase the chance of engagement and click-throughs.

3.

Idea Pins Ads

Idea Pins Ads consist of multiple pages with images, videos and text, making them extra interactive. This ad format works well for tutorials, step-by-step guides and how-to content. You take users through a story or process, which keeps your brand top of mind longer and creates more engagement.

4.

Carousel Ads

Carousel Ads show multiple swipeable images within one Pin. This makes it easier to present variants, product features or styles side by side. Users can browse through your offer without leaving Pinterest, which greatly increases the chance of engagement and conversion.

5.

Shopping Ads

Shopping Ads link your products directly to your product catalogue, so prices, titles and product information are shown automatically. Pinterest users can click straight through to the product page, which makes this ad format particularly effective for webshops focused on sales and scalable growth.

Types of Pinterest ads

Advertising on Pinterest gives you the chance to become visible at moments when people are actively looking for new ideas. By testing different ad formats we quickly discover what lands best. We continuously steer by data and only scale up what genuinely delivers results. This way you get more value from your audience with every campaign.

1.

Strategy and audience definition

We start with a clear Pinterest strategy. We determine your goals, research the audience and look at which visual angles best match their search and inspiration behaviour on Pinterest. By precisely defining upfront who you want to reach and with what creative approach, we directly increase the chance of profitable campaigns.

2.

Creating Pins and ad material

Next we develop strong ads that stand out among all the inspiration on Pinterest. We create variants in static Pins, video Pins and copy so we can immediately test which combination delivers the most attention, clicks or sales. Visual creativity and data work closely together here.

3.

Campaign settings and targeting

We set up every Pinterest campaign fully tailored. Think of objectives, budgets and smart audiences such as interests, keywords, lookalikes and retargeting. Whether it’s cold audiences, warm traffic or returning visitors: every campaign gets a logical funnel structure that fits perfectly with your product or service.

4.

Launching and continuous optimisation

After launch the real optimisation begins. We monitor performance daily and keep adjusting. We pause underperforming variants, and scale up winning Pins in a controlled way. This way your campaign stays relevant, stable and profitable, even as budgets grow.

5.

Reporting and insights

You receive clear reports with not just numbers, but clear insights and concrete next steps too. We show what works, why it works and which optimisations will further raise your results. No jargon, just clear and understandable.

Our process for advertising on Pinterest

You don’t just want to advertise on Pinterest, you want campaigns that visibly grow, convert and genuinely contribute to your revenue. That’s why we work with a clear, data-driven process. We continuously test, analyse which Pins genuinely get your audience to click and only scale up what demonstrably works. This way you get maximum results from every euro you invest in Pinterest advertising.

Companies that benefit from our Pinterest strategy

Pinterest advertising as the foundation for social media growth

Pinterest advertising is a powerful but often underused channel within social media. The platform is built around inspiration and targeted intent, which means users actively search for products, solutions and ideas. That makes it an ideal place to make your brand visible at moments when people are already open to action. With a data-driven approach and strong visuals you use exactly that moment of inspiration to attract qualitative traffic and drive conversions.

For businesses already advertising on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok or LinkedIn, Pinterest forms a natural extension of the social strategy. It strengthens the brand experience, creates a longer customer journey and contributes to sustainable growth. By testing, optimising and scaling up in a targeted way, Pinterest advertising becomes a foundation under your online success.

Frequently asked questions about Pinterest advertising

The cost of Pinterest advertising depends on your audience, industry and campaign goal. You always set the budget yourself and only pay when a result is achieved, such as clicks or views. Because Pinterest is heavily intent-driven, the cost per result can often be lower than on other social media platforms. By continuously analysing and optimising campaigns, we make sure every euro delivers maximum return.

The CPM on Pinterest varies depending on competition, season and audience. On average the cost is lower than on channels like Instagram and TikTok, because Pinterest users search more purposefully and scroll less quickly. With smart targeting and strong visuals we keep the cost manageable while still reaching qualitative traffic.

Pinterest differs from other social channels because users actively search for ideas, products and solutions. They're often already in a buying or planning phase. As a result, traffic from Pinterest often converts better. The platform is ideal for brands offering inspiration, lifestyle, products or services. Pinterest strengthens your full social strategy alongside Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and LinkedIn.

Pinterest is suitable for a wide range of businesses, especially when you work with visual products or services. Think interior design, lifestyle, beauty, food, coaching, e-commerce and personal brands. Because Pinterest revolves around inspiration and future plans, it also works well for high-ticket purchases. We always first look at whether the audience is active on Pinterest and which strategy fits.

Within a few days you see first signals such as clicks and engagement. For structural growth, Pinterest needs data to optimise campaigns. Performance usually improves strongly in the first weeks because we test variants, sharpen audiences and scale up winning creatives. Pinterest often grows more steadily than other channels thanks to its strong search intent.

Pinterest ads are managed through Pinterest Ads Manager. We choose the campaign goal, set up audiences, determine the budget and create different Pin variants. Every ad is tested on performance such as clicks, saves, engagement and conversions. With ongoing optimisation we make sure the campaign keeps getting smarter and matches the audience better.

No, a large volume of content isn't necessary. A set of strong visuals and a few variants to test is enough to get started. Pinterest actually works well with repurposed content from Instagram, TikTok or your webshop. We help you turn existing assets into Pins that stand out and convert.

Time to be truly seen

We put your brand on the map with campaigns that not only attract attention, but also feel relevant to your target audience. No empty clicks, just real interaction.
