Planning campaigns is now easier than ever with Pinterest Media Planner. This tool streamlines media plan creation for all of your brand awareness and consideration campaigns—from the ones you’re running next week to the ones that you have planned for next quarter. 

How Media Planner works

The Pinterest Media Planner is built directly into the Ads Manager, giving you a single place to plan upper-funnel campaigns without needing any additional tools or manual modelling on spreadsheets. Here’s everything that you can do within the tool: 

  • Explore audiences: Discover and size high-value audience segments for your campaign goals. Get Pinterest insights and analyse audiences based on different demographics, interests and keyword affinities.

  • Estimate opportunities: Use Media Planner to explore your budget options and see estimates for key awareness campaign metrics, such as impressions, reach, frequency and CPM, as well as consideration campaign estimates for clicks and CPC. You can even get estimates for specific countries. 

  • Model scenarios: Review different projections to determine the right budget and media needed to accomplish your goals. Compare scenarios across everything from budgets and flight dates to audience and format.

To get started, log in to Ads Manager, click on the menu in the top left and navigate to Manage campaigns, then Media Planner. You can also easily save and share plans with your team or other collaborators—just share the link to the plan or export it as a file.
