Step by Step of how to Customize Products on Zazzle
I've been a proseller on zazzle for a while now and one thing I've realised is how I've taken for granted what it's like for newcomers to zazzle. I know the site so well now that I haven't thought about how it might be a bit overwhelming to newcomers.
So here is where I've made a step by step guide to customizing a product on zazzle to hopefully help people new to zazzle to see just how easy it is to customize/personalize zazzle products online.

What is Zazzle? What does it do?

Zazzle is the biggest and best print on demand online shopping site on the internet.
It sells and distributes worldwide and is currently getting over 150,000 new designs added to the site per day!!
It's an online shopping distributor filled with millions of options for personalized gifts and products.
In my case... I look at zazzle as my business partner. I have opened my own online Pip Pip Hooray stores where I create & list my own range of designer custom stationery & products. I then market and promote my items for sale throughout the internet as well as through my local areas. When someone buys one of my products, zazzle then prints the product and ships it out to my customers.
And I have to mention... that the quality of Zazzle's printing is fabulous! See my other lense http://www.squidoo.com/see-the-quality-of-zazzles-printed-products to view examples of some of my own products I've ordered from zazzle to see the color brightness, quality and sharpness of the printing!
Zazzle is also partnered with many other artists/designers and companies.
So if you wanted to buy something from zazzle... you can either start from scratch to make your own product yourself or you can search zazzle (by browsing by certain stores or by searching the whole database by subject and/or entering keywords in the search facility) to find and use a ready made product template that's already been created by artists/designers and other people & companies (including massive worldwide licenses like Disney, Harry Potter, Star Wars, DC comics, Hanna Montana & so many more!)
You can easily add photo's and/or text to pretty much all products available for sale on zazzle.
There's a massive variety of products and items to choose from... it's a smorgasboard really!
Here's the list of products that zazzle sells:.

BELOW ARE LINKS TO SOME OF MY ZAZZLE STORE SUBJECTS TO GIVE YOU A BETTER IDEA
Step by Step Visual Guide to Customizing Zazzle product
If you're not familar with Zazzle at all... you may find this step by step guide to 'how to add your own photo's & text to existing templates' quite helpful.
I've been designing my own zazzle products (www.zazzle.com/pip_gerard*) for some time and I have to tell you that I don't believe there is any other site that can compare to zazzle when it comes to 'Print on Demand' shopping.
Zazzle has by far... THE most advanced and user friendly customization tools for customers... and they're always working on it to make it even better than it already is!
It's so easy too... so once you know how... you have endless choices of a massive range of products and designs at your fingertips for possible gifts, stationery & more....delivered to your door!
So say you're looking for an invite for your baby's first birthday party... well just go to zazzle... or directly to a store (like mine for instance... where you maybe saw it advertised and went to zazzle through there) and search for a 1st birthday party invite. When in a store you can search by their store categories. When in the gigantic zazzle marketplace is definitely much better to give as many description words you can so it gives you the best search options. Like for instance... if you plan on having a theme... or there's an animal that you love or perhaps you'd like the party to be all in pink... then put that subject/topic word in your search terms. So you'd type something like.... "baby girl 1st birthday pink party invite". You can also break down the search by product type which is helpful too.
You can have a go at customizing a template now for free if you like... just follow the instructions I've created below to change a photo and the text on any product template you find on zazzle (some products are not set up to be customized...especially things like licensed tshirts etc.)
