What clients are saying
"Dana has been a lifesaver for my company."
I was looking for a VA to help me with backend tasks in my business, organization, email management etc...she literally changed my life and has given me my personal life back so my entire life wasn't being a small business owner. It was something I struggled to decide on because it was an investment, but she has proven her value time and time again. I can't recommend Dana enough and I'm so grateful she is a part of the Sarah Brehant Events team.

FAQ's
Pinterest is a search engine, not a feed, so it operates on a 60-90 day curve. New pins typically start indexing within a few weeks, with meaningful traffic compounding around the 3-month mark. The trade-off is that the traffic keeps coming long after the work is done — unlike Instagram, which resets daily.
Instagram and Pinterest serve fundamentally different functions — Instagram builds relationships in real time, while Pinterest operates as a search engine where content compounds over months and years. If your goal is to generate consistent traffic and inquiries without creating content daily, Pinterest fills a gap Instagram simply can't. They work better together than either does alone.
Pinterest is a long-game platform — most businesses see meaningful traction between three and six months with a consistent, strategic approach. Unlike social media, results don't spike and drop; they compound, meaning a well-optimized pin from six months ago can still be driving traffic today. The timeline depends on your starting point, niche, and how aligned your content is with what your audience is actually searching for.
You don't need a blog to get started on Pinterest — pins can drive traffic to your services pages, podcast episodes, freebies, or any URL on your site. A blog does accelerate results because it gives Pinterest more to work with, but it's not a prerequisite. We start with what you have and build from there.
My primary focus is the wedding industry — photographers, planners, florists, venues, stationers, caterers, and other wedding creatives who want Pinterest generating leads year-round, not just during engagement season. I also work with online service providers and bloggers looking for evergreen Pinterest visibility. If you serve clients, create content, and want search-driven traffic that compounds over time, we're likely a good fit.
A Pinterest VA handles execution — uploading pins, formatting graphics, scheduling content. A Pinterest strategist decides what gets created, why, and how it connects to your business goals, your search intent, and your offer funnel. The difference is the same as between someone who runs your ads and someone who builds your marketing strategy: both have value, but they solve different problems.
