Episode 40: Are You Ignoring the Most Valuable Kind of Traffic?

Not all traffic is created equal. In this episode, I break down the difference between passive scroll traffic and high-intent search traffic and why that distinction matters for small business owners. While most social media platforms are built around attention and engagement, Pinterest operates differently.

As a search and discovery platform, it attracts users who are actively looking for ideas, answers, and solutions. With approximately 96% of top searches on Pinterest being unbranded, there is significant opportunity for smaller businesses to be discovered — even without a large following.

Inside this episode:
The difference between scroll traffic and search traffic Why intent-based clicks often convert better
What unbranded searches signal for small businesses
How to start thinking about discoverability instead of daily visibility
A simple action step to shift your marketing mindset
If you’ve been feeling like your content disappears too quickly or requires constant effort to stay visible, this episode offers a calmer, more sustainable perspective.
