How a Positive Mindset Can Have an Effect on Your Zazzle Sales with Gold ProDesigner Jennifer Clarke

Keeping a positive mindset when it comes to your work is a key factor in becoming successful on Zazzle. Think about your last bad day. And then think about all the effects it had on your work, social and family life. It has been proven that negative thoughts actually outweigh and affect us more than positive thoughts. Understand this concept now! If you make a choice to be positive, you will be able to succeed in projects and achieve the goals that you want to reach. Keep reading this article to find out how a positive mindset can increase your Zazzle sales.

How A Positive Mindset Can Have an Effect on Your Zazzle Sales

How a Positive Mindset Can Have an Effect on Your Zazzle Sales with Gold ProDesigner Jennifer Clarke

You might feel a little disappointed with your Zazzle sales this month. July and August can be a bit slow for sales on Zazzle. This might get you down, but remember it has to do with customer seasonal buying patterns and not your products or designs.

I know I have had some bad months and it is hard to keep positive when you see these low payout months. However, keeping positive in our lives is very important to our continued success.

Ways to Be in a Positive Mindset

Some people meditate. Others journal, writing down what they are grateful for daily. Daily exercise, being out in nature, socializing with positive friends and family, enjoying time with your pets, listening to good music, or thinking of happy past experiences are all different ways people use to help to bring their minds into a state of positive energy to create positive outcomes in their lives.

Find the way that works for you.

When you have a positive mindset, it positively reflects in your work ethic and can greatly impact your Zazzle sales.

Keep a Positive Mindset For Better Productivity

When you are in a positive mood, you have more energy and more determination to get things done. You are excited to accomplish things.

A positive mindset definitely increases your Zazzle product production ability. When you feel energized, you are able to reach your production goals. Think about it. When you are in a negative mood, it is hard to even make one product. But feeling positive allows you to keep working for hours. You can come up with new design ideas and post many products for sale with ease.

Monitor your production levels. See how many products you can make when you are in a positive vs negative mood. You’ll be blown away by the difference! Consistent product production will have a positive effect on your Zazzle sales.

Keep a Positive Mindset For Better Creativity

This kind of goes hand in hand with productivity. Productivity may or may not include creativity. When you create matching products or update old designs, there is no creativity involved.

However, when you want to create an amazing new design, it will be much easier and your design will be much better if you keep a positive mindset as you are working. As I said before, you have much more energy. You have the ambition to do research beforehand. There is a drive to learn new graphic design techniques.

And when you get excited and have fun playing around and trying out new designs, nothing will stop you! You will be surprised at the level of design quality you come up with. These beautiful designs will then be more popular and have a positive effect on your Zazzle sales results.

Keep a Positive Mindset For Better Store Organization

Zazzle designers know that having a store isn’t all about production and creativity. You also need to keep your products organized. Customers appreciate a store that looks professional and well-organized. Store maintenance includes creating collections, user-friendly categories, updating graphics on banners and category icons, and much more.

Keeping your store fresh and exciting for your customer takes effort, creativity, and motivation. If you have a positive mindset, you will be able to complete the tasks of store maintenance and organization with enthusiasm and it will be reflected in how your store looks. A beautiful store can have a positive effect on your Zazzle sales.

Boost Your Mood By Reading the Reviews of Your Customers

It is always a moral booster to read the positive reviews of customers who bought your products. So check once in a while to see what people are saying about your designs.

The reviews are per store. Be sure to be logged in. Then once you are on your store homepage, across the top your will see several tabs, one of which will be “reviews”. Click on the tab and start reading. Most will be positive.

You might see a negative, which also is a bonus because feedback is always good. Negative feedback allows you to make changes to improve your chance of selling on Zazzle. But if it is something that you could not change, focus on the positive reviews and work on using these to boost your morale and excitement level.

Keeping a Positive Mindset for Upcoming Events/ Holidays

If you are in a design and production slump, think about upcoming events and holidays that you can create designs for. Throughout the year, there are ups and downs in your Zazzle sales depending on the month.

However, you need to keep positive! Ask yourself “What can I design for the future?” There are going to be some big holiday sales events happening soon on Zazzle.

Think about designs you want to make for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. These are two days when customers go crazy shopping online for their holiday gifts! Start making designs for these sales days now.

When you look forward to an event with a positive mindset, you will create designs with a passion that will show and attract customers. Creating designs for popular events and occasions will have a positive effect on your Zazzle sales.

Non-Holiday Niches Make Great Holiday Gifts

Many Zazzle store owners think that their niche stores don’t fit well with holidays and special occasions. However, think of even the most unique niches and ask yourself, does your customer shop for Christmas? Of course!

Niches like politics, gardening, knitting, sports, hobbies, art, photography, wine lovers, pets, and causes like cancer research can all be great places to find unique gifts for your friends and family who have these interests.

Products do not have to have a Christmas theme or design on them in order to sell in the upcoming holidays. When you are in a positive mindset you can make the connections as to how non-holiday-themed items can actually be big sellers during the November rush for Christmas gift-giving.

So Why Is a Positive Mindset So Important?

As you can see, being positive has an effect on all aspects of Zazzle. It allows you to be incredibly productive. Being creative is much easier. Awesome popular designs seem to flow out of you, quickly and easily. Organization of your Zazzle store is less of a chore and seems like a cinch. Designing for the future is exciting.

When you are positive, your work ethic changes. You are excited to be productive and reach your Zazzle goals. When you put all these things together, it will have a positive effect on your Zazzle sales!

      When designing, I try to imagine the final end user browsing the Zazzle marketplace, finding my product, making it uniquely theirs, being excited to order it, being even happier to receive it, making it part of their daily life, and telling their friends about it. Focusing on continually improving the customer experience is key, as many of your recommendations suggest.

      Thank you for your article.
I opened my shop on zazzle 7. september this year – inspired from your blog I found by chance in the internet.
      My shop now has 800 products online.
10 days after starting I got a sale. But this was the only sale in the time frame of 6 and a half weeks – despite of regularly promoting.
      When I opened a store on Redbubble back in may I got immediately sales from day one on – even with only 10 products online. Constantly a few sales each week on Redbubble right from the start – with much less products online than on Zazzle.
      Over the years I sold on different market places – always with success, all organic sales without promotion.
Only Zazzle seems for me to be a complete waste of time.
      (My zRank on the german domain is 9.
I got this rank around a week after opening my shop.)

      Hi Elke,

      I’m so sorry for my late reply. Found your comment today in my spam ordner – when I cleared my mail box.
      Thank you for taking your time and help.

      You are so right: Since I changed to the english site (.com) and offered all descriptions and keywords
      only in English, all changed for the better.
      (Had over 130 sales meanwhile after a slow start and it’s picking up nice (70 sales this month between 1. and 13.12.)

      With time I got a better feeling what sells and what doesn’t – like you said.
      (My zRank is now only 4 – but anyway: I’m selling.)

      Your videos and infos are helpful and inspirational.
      Thank you.

      Best regards,
      Gabriele
