Ambassador Program Vs Without

[wpl]

Has anyone opted out of ambassador program?

Did you make more than being in the program?

May is dead for me and I am seriously considering opting out of the program

Will that help?

Any ideas...?

Thanks in Advance

I opted out as it does not make sense for me, given I only get a (self) referral once a year or so. And I keep using the rf-code. (Not sure if that is good or not, but I just thought it might be better). Also: sales have tanked AND they are all 3rd party now. Even a " none" is rare these days.
So in short: depending on your situation, it would not make any difference (unless you get a massive amount of self-referrals). My five cents and best of luck with selling! 🙂

What do you think you are accomplishing by doing this? If it makes no difference, why not give yourself the chance to earn a referral every so often.

@CrazyMermaid  It is my understanding that if someone buys a product from another designer and you are in the "ambassador" program, you do not get a referral at all.

I think you are very confused. If you are not in the program, you never get a referral, under any circumstance. If you opt in, then you get it sometimes. But if you think of this as a benefit. Fine, I just don't get it It hurts no one but you.

Read section 10, closest I could find to what you are asking.

It totally deserves to be tested how an account performs with and without the ambassador program because, based on the tests and results people have been posting on the forum, it may occur that your earnings will be better without the program, especially for those with rare sales as "none" and who most of the time get "3rd Party" sales.

But that won’t save you from Zazzle’s ridiculous and unfair 50% marketing fee.

Almost all my sales are 3rd party now

How? Can you elaborate?
