LOOK! PINTEREST HAS 2 NEW CHANGES TODAY!

Pinterest just keeps getting better and better.  After being very frustrated with trying to change the covers on my boards. I decided to do a little exploring.  I clicked on the board edit button.  Wow! A new button there.  As you can see in the picture above, there is now a change cover button.  When you click on that button, you are able to scroll through the board pins and choose a cover.  (this works just like it did before when you just put your cursor over the pin on the cover.)   AMAZING!!!! 

Another change is you can now move pins easier.  When you click on the board name, you will not only see all the pins on the board but you will also see the addition of a button named MOVE PINS.  Follow these steps: 

1. Click on the move pins button you will see 3 buttons at the top of the top: (move, copy, and delete.as illustrated above)   
2. Choose the pins you wish to move, copy or delete by clicking on the pins (you will see a red check mark on the pins you select)
3. Click on Move, copy or delete
1. If you click on Move or copy, you will then be instructed to choose the board you wish to move or copy the pin 
2. If you select, move the pin will be moved to that board and no longer be on the original board
3. If you select, copy the pin will remain on the original board and be copied to the board you selected.  

Wow!  Hope this helped.  Stay tuned for more updates about the ever evolving Pinterest platform. 

What does Laquon Treadwell have to do with Social Media?

Do you know who Laquon Treadwell is?  He is  Ole Miss receiver that was  close to scoring a go-ahead touchdown with 1:30 remaining in the Auburn game when he was tackled from behind and fumbled. His left leg and ankle bent at an awkward angle and the 6-foot-2, 229-pound sophomore was in obvious pain before being carted off the field.

Replay showed he fumbled the ball due to the excruciating pain just before the end zone, giving Auburn the ball and the win. In a few short seconds everything changed for him and his team.  

Let's see what we can learn from this young man's statement the day after the injury. 

• Laquon was injured doing what he loved - playing football
• Social media managers are doing what they love and run into obstacles i.e. client wants more followers, potential client decides to not hire us, a contest does not work
  

Laquon's statements: 

• “Not everything in life is set out to be easy, & not every plan we have for ourselves work out in our favor."
• When things go wrong, we can say not everything in life is set out to be easy, and not every plan we have for our clients works out
• “Even the greatest & most powerful people we praise or look up to have huge downfalls”
•  If we look around, we will see that even the influencers in our field have downfalls 
•  “It takes a strong person & an even stronger mindset to prepare for that major come back. It didn't kill me, so watch as I become stronger. Thanks for the prayers everyone, God bless..” 
• When we run into obstacles, we can  tell ourselves that we are strong and we will bounce back and do it better the second time around. 

Don’t let the bumps in the road get you down.  Have Laquon’s attitude and prepare for a major come back.
