Start your zazzle journey to success with this free “nail your niche" worksheet
Welcome back, friends. Today we are talking about how to make an extra 1000 a month on Zazzle. People ask us this all the time, because initially what everyone says is, “I just want to earn a certain amount on Zazzle,” but eventually they want to turn it into something consistent.
We picked $1000 a month as our mark, which seems a little high for most people initially. Learning how to make an extra 1000 a month can be a big deal for some people because maybe they’ve been struggling, and they’re finally getting to that next level. That’s who we want to talk to today. So if you’re already earning $12000 a month, which some of our top Profit by Design Academy® clients are doing, then maybe this is not for you, but the principles that we’re going to teach you here are actually what those clients used to accomplish that goal!
But before we dive right into how to make an extra 1000 a month, let us introduce ourselves in case this is your first visit. Welcome to The Creative and Ambitious Entrepreneur Podcast. We’re your hosts, Jen and Elke Clarke. We are a mother and daughter team that started Zazzle e-commerce businesses over 10 years ago and have sold over 15 million dollars worth and counting of products on Zazzle.
The Creative and Ambitious Entrepreneur Podcast is for you, the creative. We share actionable steps that you can take to make money in your e-commerce business. In each episode, we will take you one step closer to achieving freedom with your time, location, and finances.
We believe that a profitable e-commerce business is what opens the doors for you to start living your dream life if you work smarter, not harder, use the right tools and follow the proven roadmap. We’re here to give you the tools you need to make your dream life happen—including teaching you how to earn $1,000 a month. Let’s get started!
Once you know how to make an extra 1000 a month on Zazzle, if you want to continue making that consistently, you have to remember that also means that you need to let that happen passively. When working on how to make 1000 a month on Zazzle, you can’t be dependent on, “Oh, I have to pin more products to Pinterest,” or, “I have to put this on my website or write a blog post around it or post it on Instagram and my stories.” Those things are dependent on you doing another activity, and those are actually things you need to take away from the equation as to how to make 1000 a month consistently.
So be careful with that; make sure that it’s very solid and consistently there, earning money without you doing any extra work, except for making those products initially. Once you have them made, they start to sell, and the goal is to have them sell consistently over time.
The next thing that you obviously have to know when it comes to how to make an extra 1000 a month on Zazzle is how many products you’re going to need to generate that cash. So if you want to learn how to make an extra 1000 a month and you set your royalty at 10%, then you’ll need to sell $10000 worth of goods every single month, no excuses. You can certainly have some ups and downs, but if you have too many variations, then you’re depending on the higher months to make up for the lower months. What we teach our higher-level mastermind students who want to know how to make an extra 1000 a month on Zazzle is that you need to have a nice, consistent income all the time, no matter if it’s a high season or a low season.
That was one of the things that really caught our attention when we first started on the Zazzle marketplace; everyone was waiting for Q4, or the last quarter of the year. They were waiting for that time when they could just crush it during the last three months of the year when there’s Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas sales. Because that was their business model, they forgot that they could be making that all year long because they hadn’t considered that there was a strategy to set things up in such a way that they could sell consistently month after month. They didn’t know how to make 1000 a month through Zazzle over and over again.
You may not sell the same product month after month, but you can consistently have a product inventory that can together combined helps you nail learning how to make 1000 a month. That’s how these top earners on the Zazzle marketplace that have come through our coaching program and our mastermind have been successful. When learning how to make 1000 a month, you need to be diligent about creating that core group of products that are going to earn you that money. You’re going to need to analyze your product suite and go through each product and say, “How much did this product make per month?” If you want to help with that, come into our mastermind or come into our Profit by Design Academy®. Either way, depending on where you are in your earnings journey on Zazzle, we will help you with that.
That said, let’s jump into The 5 Strategies™.
So when you’re using strategy number one, which is called Establish, this is what you’re really doing: establishing your business in such a way that you have the skill set and the knowledge, and you’re directing your attention towards the right avatar and the right niches that will allow you to have consistent sales. Why is the avatar important? Because if your avatar and niche are there to attract a Christmas buyer who’s only interested in buying at Christmas on Zazzle, then you’re not going to get very many sales the rest of the year. That’s putting a lot of eggs in one basket.
The most important part of this is to say to yourself, “Am I established properly to have that type of sales going on in a single month every month?” And if you’re not, then what skill sets and niches and avatars do you have to utilize in order to make that happen?
Create, which is strategy number two, falls right in line with that, because obviously you’re going to create your product suite. By learning and knowing all the things you assessed in strategy number one, you’re going to make those products in strategy two, and you’re going to sell based on all the research you’ve done. This way, you’re making your products very intentionally so that they can truly become those bestsellers that consistently perform well for you month after month.
Consider your products to be your workers. If your workers were not doing so well, or they were sitting around chatting and having coffee rather than doing their job for you, you’d fire them, and you’d have to find some new people. This is what you’re doing in this strategy: finding those people that are going to be good workers and consistently deliver what you need from them.
Number three, which is called Announce, is all the promotion. It’s promoting the product suite that is supposed to be generating that income and creating that drive from external sources, the drive to have your products found. This is your SEO: your labeling of your product, your tags, and the keywords that you’re using.
On top of this, are you listed somewhere else? Is your product suite being found on Google, found on the Zazzle marketplace, and found on Pinterest? If they’re not, then you have work to do with labeling them properly or promoting them on Pinterest. Simple as that, but that has to happen. After that, with all the analytics, you can even see where all your sales are coming from.
Next is alignment. We want to get you to a thousand a month; that’s our goal. Number four is easy if you have a goal, because alignment means setting a goal, aligning your actions with it, and making sure it works for you in terms of being feasible. So in terms of alignment, the goal is a thousand. That’s your earnings. Now you’re going to check all the other things like your product suite, your promotion efforts, your skill set for delivering that, and make sure they’re all aligned with the goal.
The last strategy to help you learn how to make an extra 1000 a month through Zazzle is Analyze. Even though you’re checking the alignment in strategy number four, Analyze also comes with taking action or stopping an action that doesn’t work. So that strategy, which is strategy number five, is that key piece in the process of learning how to make 1000 a month. This is a deeper dive than strategy four; we delve more into it this time around. We don’t just ask, “Hey, is my goal being met?” Instead, you’re going to analyze it deeper and ask, “Are specific products consistently selling all the time so that my thousand dollars is just a given?” In order to assess that, you’ll require a history of selling. You can’t do this on day one. But if you have six months’ worth of data, you can probably predict your evergreen sellers that are going to consistently give you at least that minimum income you want.
It can always increase, as well. But initially, that becomes your thousand-dollar “employee crew” that’s helping you make that thousand dollars every month.
The only thing that’s a problem in Analyze is that when you’re analyzing, it means that you also have to check to see if they’re delivering, then do something about it if they’re not. But it’s all part of learning how to make 1000 a month through Zazzle.
This entire business strategy for learning how to earn $1000 a month can happen right in your business because you’re using those 5 Strategies™ to get you consistently performing workers, which are your products. Now that you’ve learned how to earn $1000 a month through Zazzle, we hope you’ll continue to implement these 5 Strategies™ to continue to grow your Zazzle business!
