There are endless ways to use this amazing tool for Pinterest marketing. We can use it to reduce the time it takes to create, to increase the amount of content we can output in any given amount of time, and even speed up our pinning workflows. 

Let’s look at some of the ways I’ve discovered to do this… 

(Note: I’m using the term ‘prompt’ a lot in this list. A prompt is basically the words we use to ask ChatGPT to perform something – and *how* you need to ask, to get the results you expect or desire.) 

We’ll start with using the tool to quickly generate phrases you need for various aspects of your Pinterest profile and pin optimization. You can… 

1. Ask ChatGPT to write your Pinterest Pin descriptions. Develop a prompt that you can use to generate a pin description that is up to 500 characters and keyword-optimized.

2. Ask the tool to give you some alternatives for your Pinterest pin titles. I used to keep a running list of “headline formulas” to use for this purpose, but this is way faster.

3. Similarly to #2, you can use ChatGPT to generate ideas for your Pin’s text overlay. (These are the words that you put on the graphic, often added in Canva, for example.)

4. Use ChatGPT to generate an unending number of Idea Pin topic ideas in your niche. (You need to give it an actual number, though. “Unending” won’t work. 🤣 So maybe start with five or ten. You can always ask for more. ChatGPT never gets tired of giving you more!) And remember to incorporate keywords from your Pinterest keyword master list.

5. Use the tool to generate ideas for Pin topics based on Pinterest trends that you’ve discovered by using the Pinterest trends tool… or by reviewing the weekly Trends reports Pinterest publishes.

6. Ask the tool to write your Pinterest board descriptions. These also have up to 500 characters and should include keywords from your Pinterest keyword master list.

7. Ask ChatGPT to analyze the copy from your blog post H1s, H2s, and H3s – and suggest Pin titles and/or Pin text overlay.

Now let’s expand into how the tool can help you create long-form content to link to from Pinterest…

Because Pinterest is a great way to AMPLIFY the content that you’re creating in other places. And part of a strong Pinterest strategy means you are creating fresh, high-value content regularly. 

1. Ask ChatGPT to outline a blog post for you. You don’t HAVE to have a blog for Pinterest – but it is a great way to have more to pin, and to deliver valuable content to your audience. 

2. Ask ChatGPT to actually draft the blog post for you. (It used to take me about 6 hours to write a blog that meets the standards I have set for my blog. Now it takes me 90 minutes.) Note: Remember, this is step one. You still need to bring your own ideas, examples, etc, to the table – if your content is to be high quality, unique, and actually convert and make you money!

3. Give the tool a transcript from a podcast episode (from your podcast) – and turn it into podcast show notes. Then you can add them to your site – and link to them from Pinterest pins.

4. Similarly, if you appear on other people’s podcasts, ask for a transcript, and do the same. (Check with the host to make sure she doesn’t mind you repurposing the content! She’ll probably love it, assuming that you credit her for the conversation, too!)

5. A transcript from a Youtube video you created can be given as context to ChatGPT. You can ask the tool to summarize the transcript and generate long-form content (a blog). And then pin it!

6. Same as above… but with a Clubhouse room or LinkedIN audio!

7. Same… but with a Facebook livestream, IG Live, or the like… There are also other types of video and audio content that you can do this with, but I’ll move on to new ideas… 🤣

8. Ask ChatGPT to write your alt text and/or snippet for pages on your website. By making it faster and easier to optimize your website pages, you’ll make it more likely that user-generated pins have keywords when they hit Pinterest.

And hey, remember… You can create Pinterest Idea Pins by repurposing Instagram reels, Tiktoks, or other short-form videos!

And you can repurpose IG carousels and feed posts, too – with the right strategy! 

And if you use ChatGPT to help you create more of those – better and faster – you can also be more prolific with your repurposed Pinterest Idea Pins. So, you can… 

1. Use ChatGPT to generate X number of short-form video topic ideas in your niche. 

2. Develop a prompt to ask the tool to write a caption for your Reel or short-form video. (Pasting something from a blog, a sales page, or a past caption – and asking for a re-write – is one great way to do this. And keep in mind: You can then repurpose this caption to become your Idea Pin’s “notes” in the details drawer.) 

3. Ask ChatGPT to give you some alternatives for video hooks. If you get a few you like, you can even make multiple short-form videos on the same topic – with different hooks. (And don’t forget to them download them and upload them to Pinterest as Idea Pins!) 

4. Ask ChatGPT to write copy for slides in an IG carousel. (Be specific about what you want… remember, the “prompt” is where the magic is!) 

(I know… technically these aren’t things you CAN do… but I figured I’d save you some headaches!) 

1. Don’t ask ChatGPT to write your Pinterest bio. Crafting a Pinterest bio that attracts followers and clients really requires such an artful balance between keyword and messaging. So I think it’s best to just use your brain for this. 🧠 You can try AI… but my guess is you’ll do so much refining to get it right – that it won’t really be worth it. (But hey – give it a shot if you want to!)

Note: If you really need some assistance with crafting your perfect Pinterest bio, feel free to book a “Pick My Brain” call with me. I do this all the time with coaches and experts on these calls!

2. Don’t ask ChatGPT what words and phrases your ideal audience is searching for on Pinterest… i.e. asking it to “do keyword research” for you. The AI tool doesn’t have access to search data from Pinterest, and it’s better to use your brain for this one, too!

I also teach you how to do keyword research – and develop your own custom Keyword Master List & Plan – in my course, Pinterest with Purpose. 

I’ll add to this list as I encounter ChatGPT for Pinterest tasks that just don’t seem to work out.

And one last note here: Who knows… AI tools are getting better fast… Maybe soon these tasks could be done or supported by ChatGPT. Stay tuned!
