Tailwind’s most-used product is a visual marketing platform for businesses of all sizes, from bloggers and solopreneurs to large, multi-national companies. They are best known for Tailwind for Pinterest – a complete suite of tools to help marketers build, manage and optimize campaigns on Pinterest.

We signed up with Tailwind for Pinterest in late 2013. Using their tools and analytics has helped us grow our Pinterest following to over 187,000 highly engaged followers. The results of our growth on Pinterest has been tremendous. It has provided increased traffic to our blog, substantial growth in our email subscribers and expanded our influencer bandwidth and viability with brands and companies.

We have been patiently waiting for Tailwind to expand their analytics and scheduling tools to include Instagram. The wait is over, and the scheduling can begin. Here are a few of the features included with Tailwind for Instagram.

• Scheduling and analytics tool built on the same platform as Tailwind’s popular Pinterest marketing tool.  It is designed to enable bloggers, influencers and marketers to schedule their Instagram posts in advance on a desktop computer or a mobile device.  
• Tailwind for Instagram uses push notifications to alert members when it is time for them to post to Instagram. They need only swipe the screen and their scheduled post will be waiting for them to post with their desired caption copied to their clipboard.  
• Tailwind is an official Instagram Partner. Tailwind has been thoroughly vetted by Instagram. As an official partner, this means you can trust the quality of the software, that it abides by terms of use, and that your sensitive data will be secure and protected.
• For bloggers and small and medium-sized businesses, Tailwind for Instagram costs $9.99 per month if billed annually or $15 if billed monthly. Enterprise pricing is custom and features additional product enhancements like hashtag monitoring, community management, influencer identification and advanced analytics.
• You can start a free trial at Tailwind. (no credit card necessary)

In addition to quick and easy scheduling, you can see your posting schedule at a glance. Tailwind also analyzes best posting times of day/night then suggests those specific timeslots for higher engagement.

You can view your calendar visually and schedule posts on your desktop, tablet or phone.

Enjoy this short video to see how scheduling and posting to Instagram is 60% faster with Tailwind than without it.  That’s a one minute saving per post.  With the average brand posting to Instagram 1 to 2 times a day, that adds up to 6 to 12 hours saved per year.

The video also shows Tailwind’s bulk image upload and browser extension features being used to schedule 10 posts to Instagram in under a minute.  These features might be especially appealing to those who manage multiple Instagram accounts, who regram user-generated content, or who post content to Instagram from their website.
