That's what 23-year-old Kenda Laney thinks of when she reflects on the start of her career in social media. When Laney was later asked if she could look into Pinterest, which she only used for fun, she was intrigued. In July, about $29,000 of the $109,000 in revenue she made from these purchases was driven by Pinterest.

"Hyperfocus on how your content is an answer to someone's question rather than just describing what your content is," Laney said.
