When we both started on Zazzle, we thought we had to make multiple stores for different types of products or niches, we had a business store, stationery store, birthday store, you name it, we had it! Zazzle offers over 1, products for you to customize and sell. This creates a disconnect between the store name and what you provide for your customers and limits your potential to sell other products Zazzle offers.
We recommend only 1 or 2 stores when you first start out. There are too many things to do to maintain a professional appearance in all these separate stores. There used to be a time when this was logical, but now with all the things Zazzle asks you to do to make your storefront look nice, alongside the social media marketing required per store, it just makes sense to stick to 1 or 2 at most. Instead, you can use your one store more effectively by setting up the store categories to serve as sub-stores rather than creating separate stores.
What we want you to focus on is to keep your options open and create a store that will have the ability to be flexible. The key takeaways on this podcast are:. Use these tips to help you name your Zazzle store for success!
We hope this episode has given you actionable steps to start and scale your Zazzle business so your passive online income can give you the location and time freedom to live your dream life.

Love it? Take a screenshot, share it in your Instagram stories, and tag us. See you back here next week! However, I would use them with caution because your articles are not suppose to be for self promotion to send readers off to other sites.
Hubpages, which is now under the Maven umbrella, doesn't benefit from sending people off their site. If you link to an Amazon product they do get a percentage of the profit. However, I don't know if you are familiar with a site called Squidoo. It was similar to Hubpages and was bought by Hubpages some years ago. That site was full of people self promoting with very little substance to their articles. There were then people who would hype the views up in exchange for others viewing theirs.
My point in telling you this is, we are not only writers and designers, we are users of the internet. You need to stop and ask yourself, if you as an internet user would want to see an article with a link to a Zazzle product. Is your article useful to the reader?
Does it solve a problem? Does that link you want to put in aid the customer or is it just meant to fill your pockets? Hubpages has done well to improve their site while many similar sites have fallen by the wayside. We as writers, I feel, have an obligation to raise the bar as well and not look for a fast buck.
Thank you for the great information. Thinking of setting up a Zazzle store, but wanted some tips before I weigh up the pros and cons. Could you direct me to the Zazzle Mentor group? I'd love to join and get some help with my Zazzle shoppe. You can use images of real places but you need to exercise caution. Cars, homes,business, and anything that may have a trademark shouldn't be used.
Your example of a waterfall should be fine. However, all natural items are not okay. This is still under disputed. Hoping you can clarify the "you can't use images of real places" comment below. If I took a photo of a waterfall can I use it? You've misunderstood, let me clarify. When you are sharing other peoples products it only benefits them, yourself, and Zazzle. Bringing people to the Zazzle platform, will increase the visibility for the site.
This is why the social media share buttons are on each and every product that Zazzle sells. That is the whole point of how social media works. Sharing products that you create and recommending other products as well. It's not about creating duplicate content. The seller still earns their commission as well. I know that the majority of my sales are what are called 3rd party sales. That is where someone else has promoted my product and earned a commission as well.
You get penalized for it and it doesn't help anyone, neither the author of the content nor the copycat! THanks so much! I have been a designer with zazzle for over 10 years now and it has been a godsend. I have seen many changes during this time, most for the better, but a struggle to keep up with I have the products but really need to achieve that next level of promotion and getting my products found in a saturated market.
My focus is mainly paper products, invites, holiday cards and business cards but have fun branching out into random products :D Best of luck to you also! Kat x. I'm glad you like it and I hope the ideas will help you in your Zazzle business. I saw you followed my Zazzle store, thank you.
The biggest market for their products is the USA. Hi Mary, I am just starting out on Zazzle and wondered if I have to have different accounts for Britain and America, or can they be combined? Yes, many people do that. I believe we all live in areas where there is something interesting to photograph. Sometimes we don't appreciate it, but others do. Don't limit yourself to just cards and posters. Scenes can look fantastic on a wide variety of products.
I found a store today where a person took her own photos of where she lived she lived in a beautiful part of the world and sold them on her store. There have been changes with Pixabay. There was an update to the terms of service in January and thought that could be the cause. In essence, any image uploaded after must have added value. This is something you already do,. Hi Mary, Thanks for that reply.
And all images need to include added value—not used as is. They finally gave me an answer, although not very clear. They mentioned that I used the name Pixabay in the attribution for the image. They implied that I should not use their name. How strange, because it was only for giving credit.
But when I removed that, they accepted it. I do use images from Pixabay and other sites that provide images that are in the public domain. I have not run into the problem you mention. I would question whether the image had a recognizable trademark, people, or personal property. Those types of images could potentially cause problems. I ran into a problem and I wonder if you had the same issue. I tried using some images from Pixabay since they are in the public domain with a CC0 license, which means they can be used commercially.
