We launched our Zazzle shop a short time ago and are working hard on it every day, trying to produce original and attractive designs. I don’t know if we’re on the right track, time will tell…
I’m posting here because as newbies it seems to be quite difficult to get your first like on the products, as well as followers. So I would like to propose, if it’s in accordance with the charter of the site, to make partnerships with other creators. We could for example follow each other and like a certain number of products from our respective shops.
If you are interested in this idea, please contact us.
Thank you, it’s a very good idea but we don’t have Pinterest for now. I would like to get more likes on products and followers in store. After we have a good store with many products, we’ll work more the social networks.
Followers for your store do not give you any kind of a boost. They simply bookmark your store for the follower. They are not even publicly visible anymore. No one really knows how much product likes factor into giving your products a boost if at all, so I think your focus on likes and follows is misplaced. (Just my personal opinion) At any rate, followers or a like on a product just for the sake of it, for sure won’t get you sales because they aren’t really prospective buyers bookmarking your things.
You might rethink a Pinterest account for promotion. Pinterest is not social media- it is basically a search engine and really the best way to get eyes on your products when you have no following anywhere else.
There are lots of threads in the “show me forum” and you can start one of your own if you like for your product or check out the “affiliate” forum for any threads that your products match the affiliate request. The promotion forum also has good tips.
