Editing Existing Zazzle Product Keeping the Link


My name is Sandy Mertens and I am a Silver Zazzle ProDesigner. Zazzle is a custom print-on-demand online shop where creators have their own stores. The Zazzle website evolved over the years from when I first joined. The designer tools were simple and basic. The customer could only edit the image and text if you (the creator) checked the box when posting the new product. There was no "Personalize this template" pulldown. To get an idea of simple and basic, look at Fabrics on Zazzle of how the design tool is. This was how it had been for other products. Fabrics editing has not changed.

Anyone not familiar with Zazzle and reading this, the online shopping store has over 300 different product types. Cards, clothing, home decor, office, school products, electronics, and more.

The Question

Recently, I was asked a question by another Zazzle creator. Her question was if she made an improvement on a design and made that change in Edit, if she should delete the older product, losing any likes, views, and purchase stats. My answer to any storekeeper (Zazzle creator) is if your product listing has any positive stats, never delete it. You shouldn't delete it if you have promoted it on various social media outlets. For a spelling error, a slight design defect, an image that needs an adjustment, or something that will not make too much of a change, make those changes and click on the "Replace Product" button. As the creator, you then click on "Submit Revision." Approval may take less than 24 hours to weeks. Therefore, I would not recommend doing this on a Valentine's Day card when Valentine's Day is only weeks away.




From my own experience, it has to be a slight change to be approved by Zazzle when clicking on the "Submit Revision" button.

(Now, if it is a grammar error and Zazzle does not approve the change, you have no other option than to make a new corrected product and delete the old one.)

Before the "Replace Product" button existed, I republished many products, deleting the older products. Doing this affected my ZRank by decreasing my stats.

The pencil/pen holder shown above is one product I have republished twice now, using the "Replace Product" button. Easier for the customer to add their photos with the Personalize this template pulldown. Valentine's gift for an office.

When I started my Youphotoit store, I wanted my custom photo store to be different than the other shopkeepers. I wanted to include unique graphics so the customer could add their photo to that design. 

I can make my older products easier for the customer without a subtle visual change. This video will show how simple it is.

That is it. Has this helped?

Personalized Valentines Cornhole Sets on Zazzle



Personalize these cornhole sets with your names and photos. I grew up calling it a bean bag toss. This board game is popular for weddings, church events, parties of all types, and Valentine's Day. The cornhole bag toss is so popular that there is the American Cornhole Association. The wooden games are designed for love in mind and can be for any occasion. See these on YouPhotoit at Zazzle. Each cornhole set comes with two custom game toss boards and two sets of four bean bags (10 colors to choose from). The game sets are wood construction with collapsible legs for compact storage. Board colors come in black, white, or natural wood color. For questions or a custom-designed product just for you, please contact Sandy at admin@giftsyoutreasue.com


Below is an adorable Valentine's Day mouse, red hearts, and rustic wood grain image background.

Bean bag toss vs. the cornhole set

The bean bag toss is a stand-up or lawn game. It can have more than one hole where you toss a bag filled with beans or corn kernels. The cornhole board game has a hole near the far end of the board.

 

Below are two cornhole sets of two. Each wooden board has four custom photos. Choose up to 8 family photos with each set. The style has a red heart balloon background pattern in either white or black. Enjoy the game for Valentine's Day or any occasion.

Vintage Valentine's Day Cards

Vintage Valentine's Day cards are unique and a special way to share your heart with someone. Vintage refers to images that come from old postcards and designs which date back as early as 1908. Below are the best Valentine greeting cards on Zazzle and Amazon by Sandy Mertens. I love the Victorian style images and fortunate to have some of these holiday cards in my personal collection. The greeting cards on Zazzle are the images on modern cards and sold individually or at a discount when you buy 10 or more of each card.  Visiting Amazon, these can be bought as a single card or in a set of 6 or 12 cards. Sandy Mertens Vintage Valentine Designs




Unique Valentines Day Cards
Cupid, couples, cherubs, children, and flowers are all part of these Valentines.
