Have you heard about the value of repurposing your best content on Pinterest and other social media platforms?

Repurposing content (aka finding new ways to recycle your existing content) has a number of benefits, such as: Reaching a New Audience. Some users prefer visual infographics over text statistics. Reformatting your content for different mediums means appealing to more audiences and extending your reach. (Source: WordStream)

Repurposing content is a great way for you to reach new people and it will save you time because you can get extra mileage from one blog post.

Below are a few problems you might face when repurposing your blog posts on Pinterest.

Pinning on the same board without enough time in between the same pins. (It is recommended to wait at least 90 days before pinning the same content on a Pinterest Board).
You might forget to repin popular posts.
Creating a schedule takes time.
Logging onto your Pinterest Business account to repurpose content takes time.

Tailwind has solved all of those problems with Tailwind’s SmartLoop.

Decide on how many pins you would like to have looped per day. To get started I suggest between 1-4 pins a day. You can always adjust this at a later time.

How To Get Rid Of Gaps In SmartLoop Schedule Tailwind

The Tailwind SmartLoop follows the board rules you have created, so if you do not have enough scheduled pins in your SmartLoop schedule, there will be empty slots, and that is not a problem at all.

The SmartLoop does not take a slot in your regular pin schedule, they actuallt add a new slot for the SmartLoop, so if there is an empty slot, that does not affect your daily pins.
