A special thank you to Social Media Today that used a number of Pinners to help compile this very impressive list.
If you either own or are the marketing executive for a business that is of any size there is value in getting involved with the Pinterest. Because Pinterest is still used mostly by women if your business markets to the female market you must right this very moment without doing another thing start a Pinterest account. To be sure, your competition either already is on Pinterest or will be very soon.
Enjoy following the brands on this list. If you know of any others please leave their name and a link to their Pinterest page in the comments so that this list can be as inclusive as possible.
