Idea Pins: Formats & Workflows

Overview

Idea Pins combine short-form storytelling with tappable slides. They shine for tutorials, recipes, checklists, and multi-step DIYs.

Use clear step titles, readable overlays, and a compact ‘supplies’ or ‘ingredients’ list.

Steps

1. Outline 5–10 slides with one idea per slide (cover → steps → recap).
2. Use large text overlays and strong cover hooks; add captions to video slides.
3. Include a concise checklist slide and a final ‘save/share’ prompt.
4. Schedule in Postly and group related Idea Pins into a campaign.

Best Practices

• Keep slide rhythm consistent (headline → visual → one takeaway).
• Use the same thumbnail style across a series for recognizability.
• Repurpose top Idea Pins into static Pin carousels or blog posts.
