TAILWIND PROS
When you are continuously creating great content and you are still struggling to pick up a following, Tailwind can help provide you the best information to get your product or service out to the right customers. Starting an account from zero when it can often be time consuming to create content and post it each and every day can be frustrating. Tailwind takes this guesswork out of the equation.
When discussing social media we often hear about “algorithms.” They are also our favorite thing to blame when something didn’t get the traction we hoped it would have. Typically, if we post organically, we are at the mercy of search engines that decide what content is of value and what isn’t. With Tailwind, you get info on the best times and hashtags to beat the guesswork and ensure your content hits the right people at the right time.
TAILWIND CONS
The downside to Tailwind is that you have to create a ton of content to use it properly, and all of that content has to have depth. This will help the “Tailwind Tribes” of Pinterest get your content off the ground and increase engagement. Beyond the overcoming amount of content that you will have to create, you will also need to show some reciprocity to the “Tailwind Tribes” by sharing their pins as well.
