10 HOT New Print-on-Demand Niches You Can Profit From in 2023 #23 - Amazon Merch - Redbubble - Etsy
About this video
In niche research session #23 for 2023, RJ Martinez - who claims he has sold over $300,000 with Amazon Merch on Demand - uses Merch Informer Product Research / Movers and Shakers (daily view, filtering Amazon Merch shirts, usable also for Redbubble, Etsy and TeePublic) and reads the front page to find untapped niches. Ideas he pulls out include: birthday shirts crossed with sports (motocross birthday boy turning 9, also baseball, football, bowling and ages 10-13, for boys and girls, with leopard style noted but wording caution on Amazon); funny railroad/train crossing designs, including on white shirts; graduation/senior mom and funny graduation sayings such as a husband surviving his wife’s master’s degree; Easter bunny/tractor designs (recurring yearly); ‘I love you’ / caring designs; autism awareness; summer Beer, Bourbon and BBQ / whiskey / tequila drinking designs; funny animal sayings (papa bear, uncle bear, funny cow); Cinco de Mayo / Cinco Drinko Squad designs, where ‘squad’ implies 3+ people buying; husband-wife cruising partners for life for spring/summer; cancer designs (with care/purpose); general retro freestyle motocross/dirt-bike tricks; El Jefe grilling; sarcastic ’expensive and difficult’ shirts; and MILF funny designs. He repeatedly warns to check trademarks/copyright. Mid-video he shows his monthly research spreadsheet: he aims to do a week’s research in one day, logging niche ideas, sayings, design layout and inspiration pictures for designers, targeting about 10-25 niches a month, and argues a workflow/spreadsheet is essential to hold yourself accountable and take the business to the next level (he offers his sheet for a one-time $10 fee via the description).
Key takeaways
- Creator claims over $300,000 sold with Amazon Merch on Demand; his daily method is Merch Informer Movers and Shakers filtered to merch shirts, reading page one for untapped demand.
- Strong pattern: birthday-by-age crossed with sports (motocross, baseball, football, bowling) and squad/family variants that drive multiple purchases.
- Seasonal angles flagged: Easter, summer Beer/Bourbon/BBQ drinking, and Cinco de Mayo ‘Cinco Drinko Squad’ designs.
- Batch research into one day per week on a spreadsheet (niche, sayings, layout, inspiration pics; 10-25 niches/month) and use it for accountability and designer briefs.
- Check trademarks/copyright on every idea, and be careful with platform-sensitive wording such as ’leopard print’ on Amazon Merch.
