The Future of Search is Visual

šŸ‘€Ā Sponsor this spot to share your content with our community.

A recent Adobe study found that 73% of users believe Pinterest’s visual search delivers better results than traditional text-based search.

Plus, 36% of users now start their searches on Pinterest rather than a traditional search engine. This marks a major shift in user behavior, especially among younger audiences.

Pinterest turns passive browsing into active exploration. A search that starts with ā€œgreen sofaā€ can evolve into a perfect-match ā€œParisian-chic ruffled velvet loveseatā€ just by tapping an image.

So, what does this mean for brands?

  1. Keep your product catalogue current. Upload a detailed catalogue including product names, pricing, sizing, and color.
  2. Use lifestyle imagery. Pins with lifestyle backdrops appear in more visual searches.
  3. Enable Pinterest Performance+ targeting. This AI-powered targeting expands your reach based on the visual context of your Pins, not just keywords.

Get the full scoop on new tools from Pinterest.

Tall Drink of Capri Sun

Capri Sun Solstice Pouch

The best summer solstice campaign goes to Capri Sun… by a mile.

They’ve made the longest juice pouch ever—a 15-inch limited-edition Solstice Pouch—which sold out in just minutes after its release this month.

The oversized pouch held 20 ounces of juice (more than triple the usual size) and came with a matching long yellow straw.

Priced at $1.50, a clever nod to the solstice’s 15 hours of sunlight, the pouch was only available at Walmart.

We’re sad to report that there are no plans to restock, so this will all seem like a bizarre fever dream in no time.
