5 Profitable T-Shirt Niches You Can't Ignore in 2024
About this video
RJ Martinez walks through five profitable, mostly low-competition sub-niches for 2024 using Merch Informer, stressing that research is king and design is second. His tools are Movers and Shakers (daily BSR movement shows sales velocity and demand) and Keyword Finder (search volume, CPC and competition for long-tail phrases). The niches are: 1) video editors — ‘I’m not taking a break, I’m rendering’ (260 results for the long-tail phrase, first sale June 2023, strong Q4 BSR); 2) accordion pun — ‘Everything is going accordion to plan’ (a low result count); 3) PE teachers — ‘Gym is not a subject, I teach physical education’ (244 results); 4) ‘I’m going to stand outside, if anyone asks I’m outstanding’ (291 results); and 5) engineers — ‘Solving problems you didn’t know you had in ways you can’t understand’ (selling since 2019). He says anything under 500 results can rank on page one more easily, designs should fill the whole design space, and the same search logic applies on Etsy, Redbubble and other search platforms.
Key takeaways
- Use Merch Informer Movers and Shakers to spot BSR drops that signal real sales velocity and demand
- Target long-tail phrases under 500 Amazon results to rank on the front page more easily
- Five niches covered: video-editor rendering, accordion pun, PE teacher, ‘outstanding’ standing outside, and engineer solving problems
- Sub-niche inside a bigger niche with insider language (like ‘rendering’ for editors) and funny puns or flips on proven phrases
- Make designs fill the full mockup space and use readable color schemes so listings earn clicks
