So.. I sold 2 things on Benable in less than a week

I was not expecting to get any sales. I still think no one knows about Benable but I think I might be wrong and this is one of the biggest opportunities for us Zazzle creators to make extra income and promote our stores!

I just learned about the page here 10 days ago. Opened an account and created 2 lists on April 2nd. My gifts one was optimized in a few hours (which I guess is what they always do if you follow the first instructions), then the mermaid one was optimized when it had about 30 items but once I added more my "list optimized" badge was removed and I have not been able to bring it back. The tune-up page says everything is correct. The thing is, I forgot about it until today and when I checked I  got 2 affiliate sales from this not optimized list! Once 4 days and one 6 days after creating the list. Woah!!

So yes, it works!!! If you were doubting about using it, I say do it. People actually check them out and see your products, even if they end up buying something else you also add to the list. Just wanted to share because I'm still in shock and it can help all of us.

If you don't have an account, you can skip the waiting list with my invitation here: https://benable.com/i/MHB53

If anyone is curious if it works. After 1 month I've sold 6 products totalling $16 in one account. And 2 products in another one for $4. I didn't get anyone to buy my Zazzle products, unless they didn't count as a self-referral for some reason. So yes, it works, but it's slow. At least for me. Maybe I have to create more lists and promote them.

More listings increases traffic to your page and give you the opportunity to earn the optimized badge on your profile. Keep it up.

More listings should increase traffic, but getting an optimized badge seems unrelated. Within a few minutes of completing any list to Benable's specs, I get the optimized badge for it. I think the badge and amount of traffic are completely unrelated.

Benable keeps nagging about two things: One is to use the mobile app and the other is to install the Chrome extension. I do no work whatsoever on my phone because the screen is too small, the environment is too claustrophobic, and wandering on the internet is impacted negatively by both. As for the Chrome extension, why on earth would I use a browser I've never liked? Yes, Chrome is at the top of the list for browsers used worldwide, but this can't impact the quality of our lists.

I just click on it but don't install anything and it marks it as complete. But yes, it's annoying that they want to force us to use these.

I've never clicked on it for fear of some sort of automated installation. I'll have to give your method a try.
