How to Use Pinterest for Your Jewelry Business

Utilize this image-heavy platform to market and sell your products.

As with Instagram, Pinterest is the best social media platform to use if you want to use visual content to reach out to your customers. It's the best channel to pique the interest of potential customers and a great visual idea source.

So how can you market and sell on Pinterest? Today, we created a list of tips on how you can use this social media channel to boost your jewelry business.

Create cohesive boards and pins.

Avoid making your boards eyesores by carelessly pinning images. Make sure that the photos you pin are of high-quality and if possible, all have the same color palette. You can base this on the color of your brand logo or your brand's theme. Remember that you only have a few seconds to catch the interest of users, so make your pins and boards as aesthetic as possible!

Do not forget to add the correct links to the pins.

To successfully sell, do not forget to correctly add the actual link of the product page on your website. This is especially true with pins that you have created using the Create Pin button on your board and not with the red Pinterest Save button on the image. Without it, interested users would not know where to purchase your items. If you do not have an e-commerce site, you can add links to your other social media accounts, like Facebook and Instagram.

Dedicate a board for images of "actual jewelry."

By "actual jewelry," we mean photos of your jewelry worn by a model or by you and not items showcased on a necklace display or ring holder. Doing so will give the users an idea of how a particular piece may look on them. Also, they would know that the products you sell are "real," lessening their doubts and fears about buying online.

Don't just pin your products.

If your boards and pins are exclusively your jewelry for sale, they will become boring, and it may seem that you are hard-selling. Since Pinterest is a source of inspiration, why not create a board that inspires you and your brand? It could be an inspiration for a new design line for the next season or a board dedicated to your favorite designers. Just make sure that the photos you pin are still related to the jewelry industry.

Pin smart!

Lastly, you have to pin smart! If you are going to pin images that aren't yours, don't forget to give the proper credit. Make sure that you pin from the source or the original website where the photo was first uploaded and not from a shared Facebook post.

Selling jewelry is fun, especially when you always get invited to craft shows. These events provide your brand more exposure, allow you to meet new people, network with other sellers, and of course, sell your items to new people.

How to Sell Jewelry on Instagram

Boost your jewelry business' online presence by selling on Instagram.

According to numerous studies, the number of social media users continues to rise, and mobile-commerce continues to grow as well. Instagram is one of the best social media platforms to sell your jewelry on the internet because it is visual-heavy. And as with other platforms, there are "ready customers" on IG that are willing to buy your jewelry. So if you haven't created an Instagram page for your business, it's time you do now.

Check out these tips on how to sell your jewelry pieces on Instagram.

1. Create an appealing profile.

Start with your username. Make sure to use your business name as your Instagram handle to make it easy for your users to find you. Note that it can only be 1 to 30 characters long, so it should be straightforward. It should also be consistent with your other social media account usernames.

If the IG name or handle is already taken, you can come up with another by adding "official" or adding the abbreviation of your store location at the end. For example, if your brand's name is Jewelry Seller, you can go with @theofficialjewelryseller or @jewelrysellerca.

Next up is to upload a profile photo. Use your company logo for this to strengthen brand recognition. Users must be able to remember your logo so they can instantly think you of you and your jewelry when they see it.

Then, add a creative and catchy bio. Instagram allows only 150 characters for this, so be straight to the point. Let users know who you are and what you are about. Using emoticons is a good idea too!

2. Post engaging content.

What is engaging content for a jewelry business? Simple. Post beautiful professional shots of your items for sale with an equally appealing caption. But it shouldn't just be all images; you should post videos as well. Experts say that it should be a balance of the two.

Here are the visual content types that are considered engaging on Instagram:

• Close-up shots of the pieces using a jewelry display or a clean background
• Lifestyle shots (models or you wearing the jewelry)
• Events like trade and craft shows
• Product reviews
• Promotional announcements

You can also use Instagram Stories to engage more active users.

3. Write compelling captions.

To sell your pieces, you should be able to catch the users' attention not only through your photos or videos but also through your captions. You can do this by thinking about what your target customers want and what your brand represents. Questions like asking for their opinions is one of the ways to engage your audience. Also, do not forget to add a call-to-action.

4. Always answer queries.

Aside from engaging with your customers through compelling captions, you should also remember to answer all queries. This is either via direct messages or comments. Never ignore them. Otherwise, users will get turned off and worse, unfollow your page.

5. Connect with customers through Instagram ads.

Last, but not least, is to reach your target market through Instagram ads. Just like Facebook ads, IG ads allow you to show these ads to well-targeted demographics. Make sure to add an engaging caption with a quick call-to-action as well.
