My Burnout-Free Pinning Game Plan 📌(Plus Tools I Use)

This is a newsletter I sent to my subscribers last week. I publish the newsletters on my website; however, I edit out some information from the public versions.

🎞️ New Podcast Episode Alert!

I just released a fresh episode of my YouTube newsletter podcast where I bundled together this newsletter and the previous one into one easy-to-listen-to session.

If you prefer listening or watching over reading (or want to catch up while on the go), this episode is perfect for you!

Give it a watch and let me know what you think!

🔄 Recap & What’s Next

In my last newsletter, I talked about why repurposing old websites on Pinterest is not just possible—it’s smart.

I’m putting this into action with my 🐮 Cow Website, my “first” site in the post-HCU era.

Today, I’ll share the pinning game plan I’m using to breathe new life into this site without burning out.

🎯 My Pinterest Workflow: Mostly Automated & Outsourced

Here’s the secret sauce: I want this to run on autopilot as much as possible.

I spent the last few weeks building custom tools to manage posts and generate pins efficiently.

Where do I plan to spend my time next? Mostly on choosing keywords using PinClicks — the rest is automated or outsourced.

🐢 Slow Start, Then Ramp Up

I’m pacing myself to prevent Pinterest from thinking I’m a spammer.

Here’s the schedule ***edited out***

☝☝☝ I left out some details from my original newsletter. If you’d like to receive these updates in your Inbox in unedited form, sign up:

Goal: 15 pins/day by the end of 3 weeks.

At that point, I’ll pause and reassess.

Why 15 pins? More on that in my next newsletter.

📌 Board Strategy: Keep It Simple

For now, all pins will go to one board that represents a single topic.

It will be 50-100 pins per board 🙈

I’m focusing on depth over breadth to build strong topical authority.

🧰 Tool of the Week: PinGenerator

PinGenerator is a lifesaver for scheduling pins in bulk.

I create all my pins in Notion, export the data as a CSV, then import it straight into PinGenerator.

It’s super easy and saves hours of manual work.

If you want to try it, you can grab PinGenerator on AppSumo via my affiliate link, or directly on their website through my affiliate link there.

🔮 What’s Next?

In the next newsletter, I’ll explain why I plan to stop at 15 pins per day and share my stats so far.

I started pinning on July 7, so I’ll have some early results to share.

🤔 Now, a question to you…

How do you manage your pinning workflow? Do you prefer manual pinning or automation?

Go to the comments and let me know!

Have a nice weekend ❤️
