Feedback for New Product: Fanny Packs

[James]

Hi Creators, 

Have you seen the newest addition to the Zazzle Markeplace? All over Print Fanny packs. Check them out here.

I think it is cute and I like that it has different pockets inside.  But the Zazzle provided mockups could really use some help.  They are not very flattering at all.  Also, it would be nice if one was provided with it being on a person to see what it would look like on showing the size it would be to a person and how it rested against the body.

I agree with that!

I tried making a cover page for fanny packs and find it impossible to make it look right on a body.  Like you wrote, "it would be nice if one was provided with it being on a person."  At least than we could transfer it onto other backgrounds/persons.

Yes, very true. I use 

https://placeit.net (not a free service) but the ones there are (slightly) different because ours show the threads were they were sewed together and the ones on PlaceIt don’t. I just hope nobody notices this “minor” detail. 😬

I agree , mockups may help  but I also think zazzle could offer heeps of sort after products rather than this offering!🙄

I just noticed there's a new style option under Bag Type. 

It changes from the fanny pack to backpack, but isn't that a totally different product type? I tried a few designs but they never seem to transfer well into the backpack design areas.

OH NO ... You can not switch images from the fanny pack to the backpack,

Some images might transfer from the backpack to the fanny pack.

Zazzle  - these should not be linked in this manner - the product page is NOT the convoluted "collections" section.

You can choose This Style Only when publishing Fanny Packs and the Backpack option won't appear. But you also need to go in and edit all your Backpacks to This Style Only so the Fanny Pack option doesn't appear.

😳 Oh, I didn’t think of that. Thank you!! I better check out tonight how my backpack transfer looks on a fanny pack.

Hi James,

I like creating them, created 11 so far but of course none has sold yet. At first I used collages for the product pictures (I’m still trying out what works, my store is less than half a year old), than I started using 

https://placeit.net

(it’s a time consuming process frankly) but I do it so my videos look a bit more interesting on Social Media. Not all of my fanny packs have a video yet but here are two to give you an idea how I do the videos:

https://www.zazzle.com/z/a3dwzk19?rf=238748736489762753

and I post them on all my Social Media accounts. Takes a lot of time for sure.

I plan to order one for my self as well, never had a fanny pack before.

But it bothers me (a lot) that Zazzle is advertising other companies fanny packs (on the same page just a bit down) and some of those companies offer custom print fanny packs for less than two bucks!! 😱 This doesn’t make much sense to me (from Zazzle’s standpoint that is). Does Zazzle really need the ad revenue so badly?
