Pinterest Presents
Overview
Background
Pinterest is undoubtedly the drawing board where users plan and organize their shopping options, but they usually jump ship to a different platform for purchase. Pinterest tasked Brandcenter students to get holiday consumers thinking differently about holiday shopping and e-commerce altogether.
Challenge
How can we get people to shop on Pinterest for the holidays?
Opportunity
Pinterest has capabilities some users aren't aware of - their powerful algorithm for recommended content, the "lens", and most recently, their native checkout. More and more social platforms are launching shopping features - pushing a mindless, "click-buy", instant gratification mindset. Pinterest has a chance to change this and bring back the joy in shopping, demonstrating why they should be the go-to holiday shopping app.

Solution
Introducing Pinterest Presents
A holiday campaign to bring the joy of the in-person shopping experience to Pinterest. From the hunt of finding the right gift for everyone to the joys of browsing 5th avenue window displays, this campaign will highlight Pinterest's powerful shopping tools through a number of executions.

Window Shopping
Storefront Window Displays
In shopping locations, Pinterest will catch the eyes of shoppers by collaborating with brands to take over storefronts. These 2D window displays will feature products a specific persona on your shopping list may like, and the scannable Pinterest Lens code leads to the full list of items on Pinterest.
In-App Window Displays
In the app, users will be directed to a new window shopping tab, featuring popular brands.
Brand windows will feature exclusive Pinterest products that users can click and enter while navigating the window display. Users can tap on shoppable products and add them to their cart.

Gifts for Everyone
Out of Home Ads
In highly populated cities, Pinterest will feature holiday personas that are sometimes impossible to find the right gift for. By scanning the ad with the Pinterest lens, users will be brought to a Pinterest shopping list just for that person.
In-App ideas for the "hard-to-shop-for"
On the search feed, users
can view boards curated by Pinterest for those who are difficult to shop for - from your mother-in-law to the picky younger cousin you haven't seen in forever. Pinterest will also feature popular creators' shopping boards.
Gifts for You
Pinterest Presents Holiday Boards
Leveraging Pinterest Predicts, a powerful trends report compiling user data over the course of the year, Pinterest can create recommended shopping boards in time for the holidays for each of their users. Users can share their board on social, sparking a user-generated campaign.
Joy in Shopping
Shopping Oasis
In busy shopping hotspots, Pinterest will provide quiet getaway spaces in the form of cozy holiday rooms, featuring scannable Lens products. Shoppers can easily browse, scan and purchase exclusive brand items in the room while avoiding the holiday shopping chaos outside around them.

Holiday Easter Eggs
Users can scroll through the explore page and see Window Shopping CTAs, motion pins, holiday music and character pins, as well as Pinterest-only discount pins from their favorite brands. These holiday easter eggs sprinkled throughout the feed will encourage users to spend more time on the app.
Reflections
01 Team collaboration is key.
Everyone on this team was in a different track, but this didn't affect our ability to make this campaign cohesive across all different mediums and work together successfully.
02 Break the rules.
Although the client did not request recommendations or ideas for the in-app experience, my team took the initiative to provide additional suggestions we thought would support the overall campaign.
