Creating and Sharing a Pinterest Public Pin Board
|
It is now possible to use StairArtist to create a portfolio of staircase layouts for sharing and interacting with your customer.
StairArtist makes this possible with the new social network button for sharing on Pinterest:
You will need to open an account at Pinterest to create staircase layout portfolios to share with your customers.
Opening an account at Pinterest is fast, easy, and free. To do so, go to www.pinterest.com.
Portfolios of staircase layouts you create as public pin boards may be shared with anyone, even if he or she does not have a Pinterest account.
In fact, anybody will have access to the contents of your public pin board. To create a pin board that will be visible only by you
and the person with whom you share it, see the instructions here.
