Most of the work is reconnecting accounts and rebuilding your schedule. Run both tools side by side for a week if you want a safety net.

Put your scheduled posts in a CSV file and create them in one bulk upload, or rebuild them in the composer with a version for each network.
-
Add versions beyond Pinterest
Keep your vertical Pin images for Pinterest boards, then add a version of each post for Instagram, Facebook or TikTok in the composer, with its own text and media.
-
Bring in your team
Invite teammates as admins, members or viewers and turn on approvals where you need them.
