Three Options for Affiliates and Sellers instead of Two

Discussion Forums Ideas & Suggestions

Currently we have two options. One geared towards Affiliates, one geared towards Sellers. Can we get one for Sellers/Affiliates?  I used to have several websites devoted just to promoting others works. After opting in for the 35% as I mostly try to sell my own work, I lost out on ALL affiliate income. so, I just closed those websites down as it costs money for hosting.

I happily opted in for the 35%. But, I’d be even happier to have an Option 3. While I would get less money for promoting my own work, I’d be making a little though for stores and products I want to promote. AND, it would help defray the advertising and marketing cost “losses” when a customer chooses one of the 20+ “VIEW OTHER DESIGNS YOU MIGHT LIKE”. 

OPTION 1 - Affiliates get 15% for promoting everything.
OPTION 2  - Sellers get 35% for only promoting themselves.
OPTION 3 - (Proposed) Sellers/Affiliates get 25% for promoting themselves and 10% for promoting others. 

ZAZZLE BENEFITS:  Sellers who have opted in for self promotion will be more inclined to pay for expensive advertising / marketing for not only their own stores, but, to market and sell items from other Zazzle stores as well as show Zazzle banners, etc., that earn affiliate income.

We already have the option to do both as a seller and an affiliate (option 3) as do you,  so why go down to 10% and 25%? Having to spend money on advertising is not a benefit. I definitely prefer 15% and 35%.

I was under the impression that you could only choose either the 15% or the 35%.  Since enrolling in the 35% program I do not receive the 15% for promoting other people’s products.

Hey @ameliacarrie  

Many thanks for the suggestion. I’ll certainly be passing this along to the Team 📝

Hi @ameliacarrie  use a clean link when promoting your own products for the 35%. When promoting other creator’s products for 15%, you have to manually add your associate number to the end of links (in the format set out under Associates in your account).
