Portfolio Campaign Nominations 2019
We are now accepting item nominations for our next marketing campaign! Here’s everything you need to know.
What does this campaign focus on?
We will be running a 4 day sale on selected portfolio themes and templates at 40% off. This campaign will feature WordPress themes and HTML templates from the Creative item categories, and those that relate to Portfolio websites.
The campaign landing page will be promoted through Envato’s marketing channels, including on-site on Envato Market, in emails, social activity, and via affiliates.
The campaign will be live between Tuesday, 5 March (2PM AEDT) and Friday, 8 March 2019 (5pm AEDT).
Nominations close this Friday, February 22.
What sort of items are you looking for?
To participate in our Portfolio campaign, please read and follow the requirements below otherwise your items may not be eligible for participation.
Guidelines
- Items that are high quality, presented well, and up-to-date
- Items that have been actively selling in the past 6 months
- Items that have been well-received by customers, and well rated
We know that the best sales results are experienced by authors who put forward their best items for sale. We are therefore only looking for your very best items that meet our criteria.
Campaign requirements::
- You must be the author of the item you’re submitting
- This year we are looking to promote a mix of best sellers and fresh new items. Therefore we are looking for items which either meet:
- 20 or more sales if released within the last 30 days (since 19 Jan, 2019)
- 50 or more sale if released within the last 90 days (since 19 Nov, 2018)
- 70 or more sales if released before 1 Aug 2018
Also, to help us ensure that the discount is off your normal sale price, the item must have been listed at a consistent price for the 30 days leading up to the promotion period . See the pricing promotion rules below.

Campaign FAQs
What are the Pricing Promotion rules?
- Consistent Price: Your item must have been listed at a consistent price for at least the 30 days leading up to the promotion period. See our Discount & Promotional Pricing Guidelines for more details.
- Discount Price: By nominating for this promotion you are choosing to set your item’s list price to 40% of its stable list price (30-day period: 19 Jan - 5 Mar), with the campaign pricing change effective on 5 March, 2019 (2PM AEDT).
- Buyer Fee: The included buyer fee will not change. You can find more information on how to calculate prices with buyer fees here.
- Author-Driven Pricing: As your item is in an ADP category, you are of course free to change your price whenever you like, whether or not you previously nominated for the promotion. However, during the campaign period, we will be periodically reviewing the page to make sure we’re putting our best foot forward in promoting great deals for our customers. Items which do not meet the promotional criteria will automatically be removed from the promotion page (but will of course remain for sale on Envato Market).
What happens after I nominate my item(s)?
- If your item(s) are selected, we will contact you via the e-mail address you provided.
- We will provide information about how and when your item price will be changed.
- Selected items will be added to our special landing page which will be launched on Tuesday, 5th of March (2pm AEDT).
