Ever since Jeff Sieh started his Manly Pinterest Tips show, I’ve been intrigued. Conventional wisdom is that Pinterest is a gal thing, yet Jeff has turned that notion upside down and created a popular show and podcast that explores an alternate point of view. In this show, we’re going to find out the back story and what stepping off the beaten path has done for Jeff’s brand and visibility.
On the Hangout we discuss:
- Why Jeff Sieh started the “Manly Pinterest Tips” show
- The rise of the visual web
- Importance of thinking “mobile first”
- Good looking images (and great content) is now just the cost of sitting at the table on social
(Timestamps are included on YouTube)
