Zazzle Shop - Just A Quick Update

I made another sale this week. It's not big money just yet but things are growing. Soon I will create a post showing people what I do in order to reach customers. Owning a Zazzle shop can be tricky but it's a great feeling when you open your inbox and see "You made another Zazzle Sale!"

This week I sold my pink lily "Thinking Of You" cards as seen in the image below.

I will be back with more updates! Take care,

MikeMBurkeDesigns Zazzle Shop

I am very excited to introduce you to my Zazzle shop. I started it at the end of 2012. My shop features various products such as T-shirts, mugs, hats, dinner plates, buttons, greeting cards, etc. that features my art and photography. These are really great items.


Originally, before staring MikeMBurkeDesigns at Zazzle I had a CafePress shop. These two sites basically do the same thing. They do feature some different products but the big difference is their popularity. When I was selling on CafePress I could not make a sale. My shop was five years old or so and yet no sales. After joining Zazzle I began to actually see sales shortly thereafter and the traffic has been increasing! I also feel that Zazzle makes it much easier to create your products.

My main purpose in creating the job was to be able to do something cool with my art and photography. I love the idea of having mugs or T-shirts with my work on it. I also wanted to create a site that would do the work for me. By that I mean, I can create a new coffee mug today and years from now be making income off that very mug. This store is my retirement plan! It is my hope to eventually have regular income from this shop while I work on other things.




I have created this blog to talk about my shop and the products. Each post will feature a different item.
Owning a Zazzle shop is a very difficult challenge. There are thousands and thousands of items on the site that I am competing against. It become very easy for a shop owner to get buried and unseen. This blog will be my way of bringing more awareness to my shop and I ask for your support. Please visit my shop and if you like what you see please share with others on Facebook, Twitter, etc. I think you are really going to like what see in my MikeMBurkeDesigns Zazzle Shop!
