On this episode of the I’m A Car Chick Podcast, Shasta chats with Allison McConeghy — a powerhouse in automotive tech and the Lead Client Partner at Pinterest, calling in from metro Detroit.
Allison breaks down what it’s been like to build Pinterest’s automotive vertical from a two-person team into a thriving engine that supports everything from GM and Ford to thousands of tier-three dealerships across the U.S. They dig into why Pinterest is more than a mood board (especially for car shoppers), how data drives smarter marketing strategies, and the surprising ways brands can tap into consumer decision-making moments on the platform.
They also talk about leadership in fast-paced tech, growing new lines of business, and why saying “yes” to tough challenges often pays off — plus a look at the upcoming Women In Automotive Conference where Allison will take the stage for the first time.
