@Creator Team,
First, I think the video only added to my confusion. I don't know why. But, maybe because I find that the cross-sell types only work for a similar style types of collections, meaning no changes to the colorways or overall style. I thought that was originally how it was set up for. And, I'd love to be able to wrap my head around all this, really in truly, because I see it makes a lot of sense for wedding collections which are similar style types.
Next, before adding other types of collections, other than wedding ones, I think it might be a good idea to see what happens with your "recommended" products set-up. For instance, in another thread I posted elsewhere, on baby showers, you have a recommendation for "Mommy to be" t-shirts, and you no longer sell Maternity t-shirts. Now, from research I've looked at, "Mommy to be" t-shirts for a baby shower - are so few and seldom done anymore. But, it would be nice if the "recommended" products were at least looked at before lumping them into a "go for it" consideration for cross-sell type.
Lastly, I for one, would like to know if anyone's gaining more or less profits with the cross-sell collections. We already know many of us have had to shift gears in promoting to get back some of what we already lost last year. Many people have said that profits were down. Has anyone, or could anyone attest to that they've seen increases in profitability with the cross-sell types? If so, that's great news...sad to say, I'm not one who's noticed any increases with them yet. Now agreeably, I don't sell a lot of wedding products that much. But I do know that the analytics set up within the collections is for Zazzle, not us, so Zazzle you must know. But we do not know, and I don't know if we were ever supposed to know - or how we're supposed to get any analytic set up for us to tell if it's even worth our efforts.
