Grow your Pinterest account with ease!
We use Tailwind to schedule our Pinterest and Instagram posts well in advance. We also use it to collaborate with other business owners, bloggers, and influences to find unique and relevant content that our followers would enjoy and to share our content, that may be relevant to other businesses, in the same niche. Tailwind allows us to provide fresh and relevant content on a continual / regular schedule - something you can't always do when you are scheduling manually the day of.
- Tailwind posts all of your scheduled "Pins" on Pinterest as "new" pins.
- Tailwind provides appropriate, popular, and relevant hashtags when you schedule an Instagram post.
- Tailwind's development team listens to its users and they are continually looking for ways to improve and optimize their platform.
- Tailwind provides a lot of good tips and information on their YouTube channel about the best way to optimize your Pinterest account, and their application makes it super easy to do.
- Occasionally Tailwind's load time is slow. If you have a large number of pins saved in drafts scrolling through the content and pages can be time-consuming.
- Tailwind provides an amazing opportunity to collaborate with other bloggers, writers, business owners, influences, etc. through their "Tribes." However, the built-in chat feature, through which you communicate with fellow Tribe Members, can be hard to follow and keep up with -- so we oftentimes miss important messages from fellow tribe members.
- If you're like us and want to check the link for every single pin that you "repin" to ensure you're not sending your readers to spam... it can be very time consuming because you have to make multiple clicks from within the scheduler to find out where the pin link directs you.

Great Idea & Well Organized (But, Did Not See Any ROI)
I sell sheet music on my education website and an overwhelming majority of my traffic comes from Pinterest. Like all things social media related, Pinterest has its method of preferring your pins to show to others and one way that it does this is by rewarding you the more active you are. This means that the more you pin, the more preference you get in other people's feeds. Tailwind helps you gain recognition on Pinterest by strategically pinning for you at set intervals throughout the day. I wanted to maximize my presence on Pinterest since this was the proven traffic source for my website so I tried out Tailwind to help promote my website.
- Tailwind takes the guesswork out of when to know the best time to pin (there are higher yield pinning times and they have figured this out for you).
- Tailwind automates pinning so you can receive preference from Pinterest as a more active user and have your pins shown to more people.
- Tailwind also does it's best to reach out and educate you about how to get the most out of their service.
- The honest truth is that I just did not see an increase in my sales which is the ultimate litmus test if a service is working. Maybe I just did not give it enough time? Maybe my market is just too small to receive the benefits from this service?
- Also, I truly did not see dramatic increases in my page views. Nothing elevated to numbers that would have made it worthwhile for me to extend my free trial into a paid membership. Again, that could be for reasons listed above.

Get Tailwind if you want to leverage the power of Pinterest!
I use Tailwind to automatically post images to Pinterest. My marketing department generates more leads from Pinterest then any other social media channel. In addition to this, my website gets 10X more traffic from Pinterest. Since Pinterest is my #1 social media network, Tailwind plays a critical role in my marketing strategy.
- Tailwind allows you to schedule your pins at times you feel would be most beneficial.
- Tailwind allows you to reschedule pins automatically so that it saves you time.
- There is a Tailwind Tribe that allows you to interact with other business to network and increase your follower count even more.
- You can't upload an image from all of the screens so you have to keep switching from screen to screen.
- There are not enough options for filtering previously posted pins.
- The app could use some improvement. It is very cumbersome to add pins to your Tailwind queue.
I use Tailwind to create and schedule my organization's Instagram posts. As a one-person marketing department for a small independent school, I have a lot of roles and responsibilities to juggle, and being able to batch schedule our Instagram posts is a huge help to me. Tailwind helps me be more thoughtful and strategic about our Instagram posts.
- One of the very few tools that allows you to preschedule Instagram posts.
- Suggested hashtag feature is very helpful.
- I wish you could do multi-image posts on Instagram.
- I would love even more depth in the suggested hashtag function, with clusters of related hashtags I could easily add.

A nice pin scheduling and looping tool
Tailwind was evaluated by our company to automate Pinterest scheduling and looping. It helped save us time by automating manual work, but was not worth the price.
- Pinterest scheduling. Not a native feature available for Pinterest.
- Pin looping. Making sure your best content is automatically sent to the top of your board.
- Price. In such a crowded social market, Tailwind is not competitive on price.
- UI: Not as intuitive as it could be.

Tailwind, ehhh but ahhhh!
Tailwind is used to schedule pins to Pinterest. I'm a team of one so I use it to drive traffic to my website, mainly to get them to my profile and eventually my blog.
- Tailwind is great for scheduling Pinterest pins.
- Tailwind works very well at helping you find new pins.
- Tailwind is perfect for batch working!
- I wish Tailwind scheduled a certain number of pins to a particular board at once instead of just having a common queue.
- I'm not a fan of the pricing structure. To get unlimited pins you had to pay in full. Ultimately, that's why my subscription lapsed.
