How I made my first $1000 on Zazzle

1. Increase Commission

I started with 5%. I actually didn’t know much about commissions back then. Someone on facebook recommended to keep 5% only. So I used this rate for almost 1 year, Later changed it to 7% and now its 15%. have to increase when the sales flow in right?

Choosing an Eyecatching Price

I never chose a price like $9.32.

I’ll go for $9.99.

Or $9.49.

Something that is more odd.

I read somewhere that odd numbers make more sales. If you have experienced an opssite then please let me know.

2. Update Your Zazzle Keywords

Keywords are the most important ones here. I take keywords from —

  1. Zazzle search bar
  2. Trendy products in my nuche
  3. My competitors.

I’ll soon make an article on how to do so. :)

3. Improve Your Visibility on Zazzle

I do it simply through the following ways —

  1. I usually find low-competitive keywords
  2. I find competitors in those keywords
  3. I copy their keywords — from the title, tags, and so on.

Five Mistakes I Made While Trying to Sell on Zazzle

4. Create More Products

I know I have been very much vocal about paying more attention to quality rayher than quantity. But remember that quality matters too.

Your first focus should be quality. Then slowly make more products in the category where you are getting traffic.

Example — If I see my Barber’s card getting more sales. I’ll make more products in this niche.

5. Advertise Other People’s Items

I started this recently. I have been in the affiliate marketing business for a very long time. But never ever promoted any physical products before.

I still haven’t made much sales. But it’s good in case you wanna increase your Zazzle income.

6. Write Blog Posts About Your Products

I don’t see many people doing so.

Every I meet mostly uses Instagram Pinterest and sometimes even Twitter. Hardly anyone I see uses Blogs to promote this.

See if you are good at writing then i highly recommend to promote these products on your blogs. Lost of ways to promote your products! :)

7. Share Your Products on Social Media Sites

  1. Instagram
  2. Pinterest
  3. Twitter
  4. TikTok

8. Make Your Products Customizable

My first products were static. Because all designs were from Redbubble. Later I went back and made all products customizable.

Personalization rocks.

9. Use Zazzle’s Coupon Page
