Default Cafepress And Zazzle Join Forces

I think I just created a new idea. I combined cp and zz together with banner links and embeded gallery. Hope it works, it gives me alot more variety.

Do you worry that it might confuse your customers on how to purchase items from the different places?

But what about the product pages and shopping cart?
They won't look consistent and I doubt it's possible to seamlessly combine both CP and Zazzle's shopping cart together.

You're playing with fire!

I agree I think it's going to be quite confusing to your customers but if it does work out be sure to let us know

LOL, yeah, if Threadz can somehow do it without being obvious, let us know!

This is a good idea for a new killer app: imagine a software or script that lets people from various PODs seamlessly integrate everything into one neat shopping cart and that no one can tell the difference.

We'll make big money!!!

LOL, ok! In that case, we should monitor Threadz closely....who knows....Leatherneck, me and Threadz can join forces and set up such a software for sale.

Then, if we make it, we can drop our t-shirt businesses and concentrate on software, and we can retire at 30 yrs old and spend the rest of our lives on Hawaii with hot, hot chicks.

Paradise!

There you go, using the t shirt business to get into software design . Just when you guys make that move and become famous dont forget us little people.

Help me understand the need for two fulfillment houses. What does one do that the other can't?

Well, for one, Zazzle has more kinds of drinkware variety than CP. It's mainly in the product variety aspect.
Heck, others like Spreadshirt offers custom sneakers and black tote bags, things which CP doesn't.

I just started with Cafepress not to long ago but I had plans to use Zazzle as well once CP has at least payed for itself.

My idea was to create a front page on my external domain. This page would offer my customers the choice between either shopping at Cafepress or shopping at Zazzle.

<<<UPDATE>>>

So far I have not seen any more sales but I have seen my hits on Zazzle go from 3-4 a day to 50.

Interesting... I had forgotten I had some designs on Zazzle (and Spreadshirt for that matter) for over a year until I saw this thread (Zero sales on those places will do that for you) MY CP shop however still doing GREAT. I have a site with ads to all three places that has been up for almost 2 years now and only the CP does anything.
