“FREE Jen and Elke’s “150 Trending Zazzle Niches and Designs” Guide”
In episode 28 of The Creative and Ambitious Entrepreneur Podcast, we are discussing how you can become a Zazzle ProDesigner.
If you’ve been on Zazzle before, you’ve probably seen some designer distinctions. These distinctions are given based on royalty earnings from U.S. sales. You become a Zazzle ProDesigner when you earn $100 in royalties, and then after that there are levels that go from Bronze up to Diamond based on how much you earn. It’s deeply rewarding to be given these distinctions as you earn more and more income on Zazzle. Today, we’ll tell you more about these levels and how you can become a ProDesigner too!
But before we dive right in, 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 has 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. Let’s get started!
Today we’ll be talking about what a Zazzle ProDesigner is as well as sharing our stories and some of our student’s stories of becoming successful Zazzle ProDesigners. For all our tips, listen to the ENTIRE episode of The Creative and Ambitious Entrepreneur Podcast on your preferred streaming platform.
You earn the distinction of Zazzle ProDesigner once you have made $100 in royalty earnings based on U.S. sales. It’s important to understand that this is different from the total royalties and referrals you see on your total earnings report. The designation is calculated based on the sales royalty earnings you earn from US-based sales.
Let’s say you set your royalty at 10% and you sell $1,000 worth of products to US-based customers. You would earn $100 in royalty payouts and since this royalty total was based on sales from the US, you would receive the ProDesigner distinction.
To keep earning higher ProDesigner distinctions, the royalty earnings that qualify are from US based sales. Zazzle is an internationally recognized POD platform, so you might earn a lot of money from sales made outside the U.S. However, the money in those sales would not count towards your ProDesigner status.
Once you get to that $100 amount, you get called a Zazzle ProDesigner. After that, these are Zazzle Pro levels and the royalties you must earn from U.S. sales to qualify:
There are big gaps between theZazzle Pro levels, and depending on where you are in your Zazzle business journey to success, it might feel impossible to move up to the next level. We promise you that it IS possible because we have done it and our students are doing it!
Jen is a Gold Zazzle ProDesigner and Elke is a Diamond Zazzle ProDesigner with combined earnings of $1.5 million to date! This kind of success is possible not just for us. Our students, who are implementing The 5 Strategies™ that we used and teach in our signature course, are achieving Bronze, Silver and Gold ProDesigner levels.
Two of our students are well on their way to Platinum Zazzle ProDesigner status.
We both struggled to make money at first on Zazzle. It took some years of trial and error, but we eventually found what works for us. We’ve taken all that we know about making money on Zazzle and turned it into our signature course The Profit by Design Academy™. In this course, we teach The 5 Strategies™ that we have used to make money on Zazzle. We’re not here to tell you that you’ll automatically make a certain amount of money by taking the course. You have to put in the work, but we’ve seen The 5 Strategies™ pay off for both us and our students who implement them properly.
It’s crucial to understand that if you’re not making the earnings that you want on Zazzle, continuing to do whatever you’re doing now won’t change how much you earn. If you’ve been trying for a while and you’re not seeing success, it may be time to get training or coaching..
I (Elke) made $90 on Zazzle my first year, so I didn’t even get a payout. It was frustrating and disheartening, but I didn’t give up. I knew I had to take a different approach. I finally figured out strategies that worked for me. Then once I started making money, Jen wanted to know what I was doing that made a difference. That’s when I had to take what I was doing as my routine and formulate it into The 5 Strategies™ so that Jen could also implement them into her Zazzle business. Fast forward to today. Now, we’ve sold over $15 million dollars-worth of Zazzle products combined. That means, combined, we have earned $1.5 million and counting.
About three years ago, we decided to help other creatives and Zazzle Designers achieve their earnings goals on Zazzle. So we developed a training course and have coaching programs that teach The 5 Strategies™,which have now helped so many creatives become empowered entrepreneurs.
We have helped our students sell $6+ million worth of products combined! So that means they’ve earned over $600,000 in take-home pay. We are so excited for each one of our students and coaching clients. They are proof that if you do the work, you WILL see success on Zazzle!
It’s extremely empowering and gratifying to earn new badges on Zazzle. It shows you that your hard work is paying off, and it’s amazing to know that people DO make money as a creatives! We will absolutely be your biggest cheerleaders every step of the way.
The key to success is to learn from someone who has already achieved what you want to achieve. Our success comes from implementing The 5 Strategies™ into our Zazzle businesses. The 5 Strategies™ are taught in our signature online course, The Profit by Design Academy™. If you want to scale to your first $5K month in your Zazzle business then The Profit by Design Academy™ is for you.
