Why should you attend?

Pinterest is a powerful 'web link' storage platform. As such it lends itself brilliantly to personal use storing up a library of interesting things that you might never find again if you don't store them somewhere...

But it is equally powerful when used for business, the thing is... many of us haven't even thought about that... 70% + of users are women... that might be important too!

This platform doesn't really require you to do any more than you are doing already but you will be way more organised. If nothing else it will save you a load of time!

What you will learn :- Through discussion we will begin to learn how Pinterest can be used to begin to grow another community through Pinterest. This platform is highly visual and you can insert links to video, blogs, websites and much more...

Who will benefit?

Is that you??
