Brandon is our first million dollar Zazzle success story and we are celebrating with him. We are Jen and Elke Clarke, THE go to Zazzle experts. Combined we have sold over 15 million dollars worth of Zazzle products and banked over $1.5 million. We empower creative entrepreneurs to make money online to live their dream lives. In this article, we will give you insights as to how our client, Brandon, went from earning $2,500 in 5 years on his own to earning $100,000 in 3 years with our coaching. We, Jen and Elke Clarke, coach creative entrepreneurs who want to earn 6-figures ($100,000+) selling on Zazzle.
“It’s also not always about the money.“
Make sure you’re logged in to your Zazzle account. It sounds so obvious…but ensure you are signed into your Zazzle account. We’ve all done it. We go through the motions of creating an amazing design on a product, try to publish the product, and realize we aren’t even logged into our Zazzle account. This is a time waster because we have to add the design to the product again when we could be publishing our next product.
Always make sure you’re logged into your Zazzle account first before you start designing and posting a product for sale! It will save you a ton of time and frustration.
Brandon was inspired by our success and wanted to know how he could sell on Zazzle to make some serious bank. He had struggled on his own for 5 years. Then in June 2017, Brandon decided to invest in himself and his future by getting help from us.
He started a brand new Zazzle store following our self study online course The Profit by Design Academy™ . Brandon decided to start fresh, because his old Zazzle store had made him only $2,500 in 5 years total (or $500 per year).
He used The Profit by Design Academy™ to set up his new Zazzle store properly. Brandon then filled it with products that would sell on Zazzle based on Elke’s 50 Best Selling Products List that is provided in The Profit by Design Academy™. He also made Zazzle collections and promoted on Pinterest using the course’s step by step training videos and downloadable PDFs that make it easy to implement The 5 Strategies.
The 5 Strategies: Establish Create, Announce, Align, Promote™ are the strategies Jen and I have used (and still use) to start and scale our million dollar Zazzle businesses.
By October, 2017, Brandon had already made more than he usually made in a year ($500)! In November 2017, he more than doubled his total income ($1,290)! At the end of December 2017, 6 months after starting his new Zazzle store, Brandon’s total earnings were $2,141.26.
Instead of taking 5 years doing it on his own, NOW IT ONLY TOOK 6 MONTHS to get paid the SAME amount of money by Zazzle, using The Profit by Design Academy™.

Brandon’s total earnings in 9 months were now up to $4,291.60, which was great. However, Brandon was losing momentum doing the self study course and realized he needed to be held accountable and get ongoing support to increase his income. That’s when he joined The Profitable Membership™ It’s an add on to The Profit by Design Academy™ that is designed to give you continued dynamic support as you build your Zazzle business.
Brandon wrote:
Joining The Profitable Membership™ in March 2018 was crucial to my progress. Jen and Elke’s coaching identified areas where I could improve including my design skills. I targeted products and designs that I had previously skipped over, because I felt they took too long to design. Elke found examples in my store of times that I rushed product design. I had created lots of templates that just weren’t working how I thought I had designed them. Some of the early products that I had posted for sale were just plain bad.
I realized I had stopped paying attention to what Jen and Elke taught in their course.
To fix my mistakes, I took the time to create the template products properly. Also, designs I thought looked great when I originally made them, clearly did not follow what I had learned in The Profit by Design Academy™. I also fixed these designs and posted them as new products.
March was definitely my month to clean up my Zazzle store and look for new possibilities..
Brandon’s April Earnings were $1,112.45. His first 1k month EVER! Brandon’s New Zazzle Store Earnings running total of the first 10 Months = $5,404.05
Brandon Wrote:
Due to all the clean up done in March, I started to see sales on the new products I made in less than a month. The learning for me is that I had done the research to know what is popular but I posted a poor design.
Once I posted a good design in the popular niche that I had identified, I made sales on Zazzle almost immediately.
I also kept putting into place the suggestions Jen and Elke gave me in monthly masterclasses held in The Profitable Membership™ . This helped me see that there are many components to Strategy #2: Create and I had not taken advantage of all of them.
With each week of implementing changes, I saw an increase in my sales.

My original earnings goal that I set for myself when I first started the course was $1,000 (2X what I had made on my own). Then I increased it to $5,000 after I reached $1K in 3 months! I keep increasing my earnings goal every time I reach it. It really works best when you follow what Jen and Elke suggest with Elke’s ERSD Goal Setting Technique.
As of June 2018 (a year after starting), my goal is to reach a lifetime earnings of $25,000 by July 2019 (= $250,000 in sales).
This seems impossible right now, but so was my lifetime earnings goal of $1,000 that I set when I first started in July 2017.
Brandon Wrote:
Being a member of The Profitable Membership™ is paying off for me big time.
Since starting with Jen and Elke, I have sold over $100,000 worth of Zazzle products and banked $10K.
The designs and products that started selling in 2017 are now selling over and over again in 2018. That means I am getting paid over and over again for products I made once.
In the meantime, my new products I made recently in 2018 are also selling. I am making sales every day and earning money from multiple products, over and over again.
Jen and Elke’s course and membership really helped my figure out how I can fill my store with best sellers that sell consistently. That is why my Zazzle income is increasing so quickly.
Brandon Wrote:
In June 2018, I set my goal to be $25K in lifetime earnings. But over the past year The Profitable Membership™ has kept me accountable and been an incredible source of countless important strategies that allowed me to make $30K JUST in the last 12 months. That’s a 3X increase from my first year when I banked $10K! I exceeded my July 2019 goal I set a year ago by $15K!!!!
Since starting with Jen and Elke 2 years ago, I have sold over $400,000 worth of Zazzle products and banked $40K.
Brandon Wrote:
Because of Jen and Elke’s course and membership, I had achieved so much more than I could ever imagine. I especially like it when I have $5K months.
But when Jen and Elke announced that they were holding their first Mastermind, I knew that I needed to sign up. I did not want to miss out on anything else that they could teach me.
They asked me what my goal was for the coming year. I told them I wanted to make $40K in ONE YEAR instead of in 2 years like I did in the past.
That’s when Elke blew my mind. She showed me how I could set up my production strategy to make $60K predictably in one year. That means she showed my how to 2X my income of $30K from last year. She believed in me more than I did in myself and she made me feel comfortable and confident that I could take on this challenge and achieve this higher goal.
My advice is to participate in Jen and Elke’s Mastermind as soon as possible. Go back for a second and third time. I not only reached my goal, I exceeded it.
(Note: This event is now being held online due to COVID-19 and is called The Creative CEO Mastermind™ until we can hold more in-person masterminds in Mallorca, Spain and Australia)

The 5 days of training and coaching I received from Jen and Elke in The Creative CEO Mastermind™ last June (2019) was amazing. It made my business skyrocket. The follow-up monthly group coaching calls allowed me to keep learning, growing and asking those 6- and 7-figure business questions that made my success possible. I also loved having direct access to Jen and Elke to ask questions and get answers fast. That means I can keep using my time efficiently.
I not only achieved my goal of $60K in one year but I exceeded it!
In 3 years after starting with Jen and Elke, I have sold 1 million dollars-worth of Zazzle products and banked $100,000.
Jen and Elke’s course, membership and mastermind are the perfect combination of training and coaching that I needed to achieve such a big goal fast.
Zazzle’s criteria for Zazzle Gold ProDesigner is $100,000 in lifetime earnings from US-based sales. Brandin received his notice on July 7, 2020.

In this post, we are talking about how to earn $1,000 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…
In this post, we have a very special guest, one of our own clients. Her name is Wendy. She’s going to be talking to us about her journey through Zazzle…
There was a time when I, Elke Clarke, was frustrated because I was not making sales on Zazzle. In fact, I only made $90 in my first year! ☹️
I experienced waves of overwhelm not knowing what to do to increase my sales in my Zazzle store. I just kept working harder and posting more products for sale. (Trust me, this does not work. ☹️)
I used to stare at my computer screen for hours not getting anything done. I was paralyzed by anxiety (Was I any good?) and FOMO (fear of missing out) because other products on Zazzle “seemed” to be selling while mine were not. ☹️
Then one day I said “NO MORE!”
I realized I could compete and sell well on Zazzle if I:
