“For retailers, the path to purchase from a social network is no more direct than on Pinterest. “See it, like it, buy it” happens frequently…You have clear social proof of the desire for the item, you see a picture of it, and you are only one or two clicks away from being on an ecommerce site.” – Josh Davis of LLsocial.com explains well about the Pinterest advantage in marketing aspect.
