Zazzle Store and Amazon Affiliate

As an internet marketing newbie with zero-budget, one practical entry point that I found available to me was setting up a store at Zazzle (pls. see my Zazzle panel above, and check it out). In Zazzle, I could virtually 'create' my own products and sell them on the internet, without being involved in the actual and physical manufacture, shipping and delivery of the products. Zazzle.com does all that. Zazzle also provides promotional tools that will help me in marketing these products. Revenues come to me as royalties or commissions. Fair enough.

What I like about Zazzle is that I can express myself through the creative process without worrying about the capital intensive 'brick and mortar' production and distribution phases. At the moment, the products I've 'created' are geared towards the internal change that I have to undergo -- the growth into the 'abundance and prosperity' mindset and consciousness , which in my case, is a necessary initial step in my financial freedom journey.

Of course, generating traffic to my blog and hopefully to Zazzle is my job and responsibility. And I realize it's not an easy task considering that there are millions and millions of products being sold at Zazzle. But therein lies the challenge. I was thinking, maybe 'niche' marketing is the way to go here.

Another zero-budget income-generating internet activity that I've started to learn and get into is affiliate marketing. I've started with the affiliate program of Amazon.com (pls. see right side panel). And for the time being I'm concentrating on self-development books, business and internet marketing books. It's apropos because at this point, I'm just beginning to learn about business and internet marketing. And for another thing, I love books, per se.
