I started this channel in January of 2021 to share my knowledge of selling digital downloads on Etsy, or on any other platform, as well as my experience selling Print on demand. I do my best to bring you the most relevant content about selling print on demand and printables, creating interesting print on demand designs, testing the quality of print on demand products, as well as provide you with marketing tutorials, and so much more! I recommend many services and websites in my videos, some contain affiliate links- which means that you can have a discounted price, or the same price, while I earn a bit of a commission for the referral- to help support this channel and the cost of producing the videos.

An absolutely fantastic 6 part tutorial. Totally in awe of your knowledge and thanks for sharing and inspiring. 🙏
The marketing side is what I struggle with most. I get the main principles but actually executing them makes my head spin 🤯😂
I feel ya. I hate marketing !! I think it's why I stuck around with TH-cam, as I don't market this channel at all. I also love Pinterest for that reason, as it's the least "stressful" out of the social media platforms. It's also why i like blogging, as the written word still has so much power, and blog posts don't "die" as fast as Instagram posts do. It's also why I love making my own art or choosing niches I care about- as it would be easier for me to market them since the interest in the items grows for me.
Actually, we're lacking in marketing in zazzle compare to other platform. Unlike those affiliate community from redbubble and etsy. They spam those links on social media. Even if you check pinterest, majority of the pins are from etsy and redbubble. However, goods news tho, etsy is loosing ground, shops are moving away due to high fees, zazzle are gaining ground as there are more stuff to sell and slightly increase in marketing activity. But we do need to attract more affiliate marketer.
Mey. You are a very special being. Special beings are ones that really care for other beings. You have integrity and love for your fellow man in spades. I have learnt so much from you and you have enlightened me to really take two steps back and look at my life. Thank you.
Gracias por aportar estas excelentes ideas. Hace poco estoy en Zazzle (2 o 3 semanas) soy escritora de literatura infantil y me encanta el l diseño. Estoy diseñando ropa de bebé que incluyen partes de mis cuentos infantiles. Pequeñas colecciones (semanarios) en las cuales comparto un cuento infantil en 7 camisetas o bodies para bebé. Esto me fascina. Ahora deseo promocionar mis colecciones de zazzle. Gracias a ti por este maravilloso tutorial.
Bendiciones 😘
oh yes, how to promote your digital products on Tiktok so that videos would be natural and salesy, I would love that kind of advice!
Mey, you rule, I adore your channel. you're so to the point with analyses of the business opportunities and tools, and full of creativity and sense of humor. keep on bringing us fresh food for thought and inspiration for action ❤ ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for everything
You're welcome :)
I hate that I missed opening a Zazzle store for your birthday.
I will be having more Bdays, no worries :)
Definitely would love videos on how to use the social media accounts to market our products.
Lots of great information and I am only half way through your video. Keep making videos like this please.
Glad you liked it :) def more videos coming up in this Zazzle series :)
Love, love, love this space!
And, I feel your pain as I also suffer with many fibromyalgia symptoms.
I haven't been able to work since November 2018, I was 43.
I am now working on an Etsy POD shop and will start Zazzle but its hard on the fybro to be on the computer all day. (its a lot of work!)
You rock Mey! Keep going! 💗🤍💗
amazing got lots of thing during this course
THANK YOU for all of your content! You are so inspiring!!
You are so welcome!
Hey! Another great video thanks. I really need to get to grips with social media too I'm rubbish at promoting our products! Also, just submitted some Zazzle products for you through the link 😀
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. I appreciate your honest and thoughtful tips and advice. I've learned a lot from your videos.
Thanks Mey. The blog video would be great to see, thank you.
On it ! (though, again, that would take some time :))
You are such an inspiration I love watching your videos every day Love You
Thank you so much!!
There's another video on the Zazzle series coming up later today- showing their notebooks in real life + cool design ideas for them :)
oh THERE is a video where you mentioned wanting to buy for your birthday lol i'm behind the times :)
It's OK :) I will probably have some more in the future... :)
@@MeyTribe my stoopid shipping needs to be fixed on my store anyway, i forgot you lived where you live lol
New to your channel. Love how organized you are ❤
Thank you for teaching this!
Thank you for learning LOL :)
Fantastic video! Website set up with affiliate and merch links would be so helpful, perhaps also a blog website that you can link multiple platforms and your own website niche stores too, i know thats alot i got carried away sorry, thank you 🎈
the most useful vid i have seen.
Awww thanks :)
This is the area I struggle with the most. I've been in a bit of analysis paralysis over the whole social media thing and how to market. I tend to go down design rabbit holes for hours 😁
@@MizJaniceResinArt I know the feeling. I find that most people start off "small" an Instagram account, trying to plan ahead a bit what to post, and Pinterest- as it is a bit less social LOL
Guess what !? Your Birthday is the same as my daughters she’ll turn 19 this month !! I got a lot of inspiration to promote my Print On Demand Art FashionLine from this video 👍thanks for sharing ❤️👍
Thank you so much for this series of videos Mey! A lot of my confusion has now gone, lol!! I am not sure if you have done this already, but could you do a video on how to blog for marketing print on demand products? If you have done one already, could you point me in the right direction...thank you again!!
I love that you're into blogging as much as I am!!
There were several videos relating to blogging here,
this one was targeted to products from RedBubble:
th-cam.com/video/H0VMP8irwnw/w-d-xo.html
However, on Zazzle you can affiliate yourself, so make sure that you include an affiliate link to the items, and not a regular link.
There was also a wider video (again for RB)- with blogging ideas, which also might give some insight:
th-cam.com/video/67jcU4ZFiJ0/w-d-xo.html
I will try in the next few weeks to add a few more blogging/website videos regarding marketing :)
Thank you. Yes back to school please
Thinking about a video like that for July. Will update !
Thank you for the videos on the Zazzle series. A lot of other TH-camr's videos talks about the end goal of making lots of money whether it is real or not. Your videos focus on the journey toward the goal which is just important. I am new and have been browsing through your videos. Do you have a video discussing the workflow for those who are getting started in the business?
great video! just a heads up on your bullet journalling niche, "bullet journal" is trademarked from the brand who created the bullet journal
I knew about that, gonna go around it with notebooks and journaling - but thanks for the care :)
Happy very late birthday! Thanks for the great video. I have lots and lots of products (12K-ish). Is it smart to just have tons of baby websites...or can various not related niches be included in one website? Maintenance would be a nightmare.
Excellent video. Thank you
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for your effort and valuable information I hope that you will explain the promotion on each platform separately with the steps in detail
I did have some previous marketing tutorials in this channel, there was a mini series of 3 videos on instagram, and the approaches for each, like as an artist, as a brand, and as a niche
But I will def be making more!
Marketing and promotion is Definitely my weakest link...i just want to make pretty designs. Lol
Mey you are awesome!
Thanks :) (though less awesome with seeing comments in time LOL )
Question about Pinterest - you said it's good to pin others - you didn't mean re-pin right? But pin from scratch? And thank you for this video, although it makes me wanting just to crawl into my studio and forget about that scary word "marketing". :)
I totally meant re-pin, or the save option. You cannot re-upload someone else's exact content if they made it themselves. Also- re-uploading is still the action of uploading. Pinterest doesn't differentiate if we upload pins that talk about us or others... You need to use their system to re-pin from others.
And I get the whole scary thing... I think I was talking about that when I gave away the free planner, to focus yourself on what you think you can do now. Not ALL social channel should be done all together by everyone. You'll go crazy LOL
Start with the one that feels more comfortable to you :)
Great video Mey - Thank you so much for the shout out :)
I would love a step by step tutorial on how to use the affiliate program link to promote products. I find the instructions on the website very confusing.
I’ve been trying to understand Zazzle stores. If you make more than one store can customers see them both under your main acct or no?
Pertaining to this video - do you market for each store like -Pinterest for example. Do you set up a different Pinterest acct for each store or just different boards per store? Same question with IG, FB etc. I think it all depends on the answer to my original question.
Yes- any potential buyer can click on your name, and then stores- and see all of your stores on Zazzle.
Personally- I don't market all of my shops.
I have made a store in which i upload "tutorial stuff"-
so if something isn't in my personal niche, and I wanna make a tutorial on that technique or that product- I will be making it on that store.
The journals shop started being promoted with TH-cam, substack and Pinterest.. But I moved my interest a bit on substack to another project (trying to figure out what I wanna focus on, as I am too in a very severe "shiny new thing syndrome" illness LOL
The bathroom store has a blog backing it...
The plan of course is to only have stores that I promote.... But I need to find the structure for each promotion avenue and see what is realistically possible for me to do - as I don't currently have time to promote all at once, and I need to think and prioritize.
I think that in the process of making many stores, focusing on different audiences and styles, eventually one sees what they truly wanna be doing :)
@@MeyTribe Hmmmm. But I’ve been in others shops and don’t see where to get to their “name” to see all their shops.
Thank you for the explanation about your marketing. I’m not sure I have shiny object syndrome horribly bad but do have a lot of shops all over the place but now want to start in Zazzle and give it my full attention. It seems like a better fit for me than all the others.
Watched all 6 -- will watch again after little experience in Zazzle
There are also parts after the 6th one with product reviews of several items and the design techniques for them.
What items are you thinking about selling on Zazzle?
I will focus on small items on Zazzle like "keychains & face masks" because they're easy to sell as compared to highly competitive categories. it is very difficult for me to make complex designs as you do in your videos (ie Bed Sheets, Patterns, Mandala)
I'm on Level 1 so my sub-conscious needs enrichment
I selected "Zazzle, Kittl and Placeit" to work on after watching your videos
@@middleeasternscript7798 I think that patterns can be super easy at times, depends on the tools you have to design them, and also on Zazzle you can create them on the actual platform with a simple clipart. Try making a design of a heart or even a dot and see what it does with patterns :)
@@middleeasternscript7798 Yeah, the options for patterns on Kittl are limited, but you can also use the free Canva version for some cool patterns, and even Kittl, as Zazzle has that pattern tool. Maybe I should reference more about that in the next few videos.
Hey. Thanks for the vid! I will really try to design a lipstick for you tomorrow but I am coming out of a pretty bad health week so can't promise anything, sorry
great video, thanks
Mey, is it better to create a store by product category or by topic?
A shop of mugs with various themes or a shop of multiple products with a theme say... football.
Keep up the great word!
Both sound amazing (which you can do both, you can open multiple shops per 1 user)
It's all about how you see yourself marketing it.
How to increase sales of Christmas products on Zazzle store?
What are the sizes/dimensions for making a design? How do you know the right sizes per product? I can't find anything to help me create a design in canva. Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you for these wonderfully inspiring videos! 😊
Canva is extremely user friendly, there are also many videos on youtube on how to use Canva. Good luck
My hubby and I both have ADHD. Do you have the link for the bullet Journal you talked about? Also, I am new to your channel, did you make a video about bullet Journaling? Also do you have any tips to focus on things to get them done?
I'm looking forward to the video about POD TH-camrs who are lying to ppl. I get pretty irritated with quite a few of them.
I love your cubism faces! Do they each have names? Or backstories?
I am working on names for them, kinda had their names in my head but didn't write them down. and thanks :) I love them too :)
I have some wrapping paper in Z stores, I think you might like some, but have to wait for indexing in one of them - it's new, and Zazzle is so slow lately. How much time we have with gifts for you?
Till about 30 hours from now…
It’s a great video as always.
Have Question Mey, I have a red bubble account opened recently and following your zazzle series I really want to open a zazzle store. For now I use Pinterest to market my products, So if I am to market zazzle products (which are different products under the same niche of the red bubble) is it ok to use the same Pinterest account or is it better to open up a new account.? Thank You 😊
You look like shakiraa 😮❤
Just got one of my zazzle design disapprove for a graphic of bbq grill for fourth of july. Not sure why . I read through their listed requirements and cannot see what's the offending issue. I emailed them back and I am still waiting for a reply. but I wished they can be more detail. Like was it the fire icon over the grill, or too much fireworks, or text etc. Any advise?
I am a beginner and very very lost about the products and how to display them. I love designing patterns, but I do not have a plan to put them on the products. I am at a loss and my store is not arranged because of this matter
That is an issue for soooo many people!
I suggest- step away from a computer, get a large piece of paper and write down the products you want to design.
Then see if you can break them down into groups- categories for a shop.
You can also have multiple shops (but you'll need to market everything. )
Let's say you chose 6 items you love most, and your patterns come in 7 styles...
Make the item types- your categories, and your pattern styles- your collections.
There is no way for me to break it down further- as I don't know what you're passionate about selling. only you can know that.
In many cases I found that looking at the marketing aspect you'll quickly see what items you actually wanna market and what items make marketing seem annoying. and there will be your answer :)
I am, however, thinking I will make a video just about that when I get back from my break :)
@@MeyTribe
Thank you very much for your kind reply..and waiting for the video 👏 And have a nice day
Hey, on Teepublic they create campaigns and ads for us. In Zazzle it's not the case? Thanks in advance!
I'm a bit confused... what do you mean by that ? Every platform markets itself on social media, so does Zazzle... I think Zazzle even advertise on TV !
@@MeyTribe COol! I'll open Zazzle shopS! :)
How can someone send their design for you to buy. This vlog has been a year ago. Well, I can say that I'm late viewer. Anyway , I learned something from one of your vlog.
I am really confused about what you mean for me to BUY.... was that in reference to the bathroom project ?
@@MeyTribe NO, it's not about the bathroom project, its about the birthday gift for yourself, you mention it here
@@wazmink2459 ohhhh
I did a major purchase last year for my birthday
But it’s already passed
@@MeyTribe ok, no problem, I'm a late viewer. That's why. Anyway, learning as well from your channel
Would love to see a video on Tik TOK, I don't know how you have the time to do all the things you do girl.
I don't always have all the time to do them all... I mean, I fail my monthly goals all the time LOL I am taking now this 2 weeks break from uploading new videos to try and clear my time, work on my own scheduling. Hopefully then- I will be good at making the time for everything, or at least being more targeted.
I feel like I am slowly zoning in on Zazzle, with my own marketing plan that will include also selling on KDP and affiliate links in that niche. Hoping for the best LOL
As for Tiktok, I am trying to schedule with friends I know here who are much better experts on Tiktok than I am- to film with me and give you guys the best advice.
18:21
btw...thanku for your videos.. Much appreciated....528hz
The thing I don't like about TikTok is their intrusive terms of service. It's kind of crazy.
Yeah, have you watched the tiktok story on Magnates Media channel ? Crazy !!
Blogging and organic marketing, please.
There was a video yesterday that was more about the concept of affiliate marketing plus POD- including the blogging aspect. also some blogging tutorials already on the channel. But more would be next year for sure :)
Am i the only one who finds it hard to upload in zazzle? The uploading process takes a long time and on one single product, and the site keeps crashing,
I'm designing lipsticks :p
how to solve zazzle scam msg ?
Sadly, I'm too late to the contest
Ha😢😮
Have u ever heard of LDN? Peace-😃
What platform would you suggest for printing edgy protest slogans probably for t shirts or stickers & maybe 🤔 notebooks for school. I mean like anti jab or anti big pharma-something Amazon would not print & I wouldn’t even try it there! Red Bubble is in Australia and Australia is locked down worse than the U.S. so they probably wouldn’t print anti-jab quotes. So do you know of any free speech P.O.D. Platform? Or maybe I should ask Elon Musk to start one??😏
I'm afraid my answer didn't change from the last time you asked me that question. If you want to post what you want without fearing a platform will kick you out- create your own shop, independently on Shopify/woocommerce. Though make sure to not cross into any violent speech- as that still could get you shut down.
Feel sorry for Mark Zuckerberg… not!!!
Yup... sad reality haha
we are watching so many videos now on how he messed up with his little universe plan LOL
😂😂😂 brilliant start great vid thanks Mey
Glad you enjoyed it
I did SO many great tips and so much honesty in your videos I love it 🥰
@@mermaidascension3333 Makes me happy to hear :) What kind of shop are opening on Zazzle? :)
@@MeyTribe ok so 🥁🥁🥁a Kuwaii themed party supply store with pop culture references so like a cute Kuwaii ice cream birthday card saying “Birthday? , ain’t nobody got time for that!”
@@mermaidascension3333 sounds super cool !!! Can’t wait to see it !!! Good luck!
