I just want to know from Zazzle if we can please get some sort of response as to what is the plan/end game is with royalty changes / ambassador program for designers? ...
What was the reasoning for the change? .... Was the plan for designers to generally earn less (30-40%) with the ambassador program (if they continue to operate as normal and not change to a more aggressive advertising strategy) in order to increase Zazzle's underlying net profit and/or make Zazzle a more sustainable business?
Alternatively, is Zazzle expecting gross sales volumes to dramatically increase from Zazzle's increased advertising spend... and a therefore designers' sales volumes will increase (to make up for the loss of royalties)?
What are the internal projections? I understand we do not have an ownership stake in Zazzle, but as others have mentioned we are essentially partners. If Zazzle needs designers to take a pay cut to ensure it survives long term it would be better to know this so we can work together.
The reason I ask is designers also need to plan their finances. If what we are experiencing since April 1 is the new norm it would be handy to know... Some need to take on additional work etc. from external sources, restructure finances etc etc.
Zazzle has been amazing to work with. It just would be nice to have a more transparent relationship moving forward.

We need transparency and all these questions answered so that we can decide how to proceed, how to recap our lost royalties, and determine if Zazzle is still a viable business platform for designers.
We need to be able to plan our next steps with concrete data and more insight into Zazzle’s plan.
