  1. Hi Wendy, you do not have to be a Tailwind subscriber to join a Tribe though and you are also not limited to the amount of pins to the Tribe! You should definitely try it then!

  2. I have been considering subscribing to Tailwind because I’m wanting to up my Pinterest game — this is timely and helpful information. Definitely saving it and referring back. Thanks!!
