Email Saying My Item is Being Featured As Editor's Pick

[CherylJones]

Hi All. A few days ago I received an email saying that one of my t shirts is being featured and "handpicked as an editor's pick." I was sooo excited, but I don't know exactly what that means or how that could help the item to sell. I've looked all over Zazzle to see if it appears in a special section, but found it nowhere. Any thoughts on this? Btw, I was picked as a featured artist/store for Pride Month, and found my store under "Trending." I was hoping to find my t shirt in such an area. Below is a link to my t shirt:

Thank You Guys So Much! : ) Cheryl

Congratulations on your feature and Editor's Pick Cheryl. Sometimes I can't find my EP's on a Zazzle landing page or in their blog articles for example either. They may be using your design for outside promotions like email or something not seen by you. It's a nice little feather in your cap.

One thing you could do is promote your t-shirt more off of Zazzle. The more your products are "out there" on social media such as Pinterest or Instagram the better chances it will be looked and or sold.

Good luck!

Thanks so much! Very helpful info. I sure will promote more. And good luck to you too! Cheryl : )

@CherylJones 

In the "search for products or designs" search bar in the upper left corner of the zazzle.com page,
type in your store name and hit the magnifying tool.

Click on the Add Filter + option and tick the Special Picks box.

The Special Picks option will now appear. Tick the Editors' Picks box.

Your Editors' Picks will now show up.

Using the above method, you also have the option to see which of your designs are "Perfect Gifts" (which I'm guessing are not quite the same caliber as an Editor's Pick).

By itself, an Editor's Pick will not do generate sales or exposure ... you will still need to promote on social media platforms like Pinterest, Instagram, Facebook, etc.

ETA: Editor's Picks aren't permanent. Zazzle may remove this designation in 6 months to 1 year (their reasoning being to make way for fresh new designs).

Great! Thank you. That is good to know. I just tried that and my shirt came up. : )

yay!!! 👍👍👍

for one of my new designs, I got two products chosen as Editor's Picks (even though I only received one email for one of the products).

That's great! Congrats! : )
