How To Find Trending Niches For Merch By Amazon | Including Top 2 Niches
About this video
RJ Martinez shows how to spot trending Merch by Amazon niches from current events, using Roe v. Wade protests he was seeing on YouTube and Facebook as the live example. He argues protesters holding signs and wearing statement T-shirts reveal phrases and beliefs people want to wear, but warns some words can trigger a Merch by Amazon rejection, so sellers must double-check keywords themselves. Searching MerchResearch/Merch Informer for ‘women’s rights,’ he points to front-page BSRs cranking in the roughly 65k-70k range and lower, which he reads as strong demand. He then shows the narrower ‘pro choice’ niche, citing examples in the transcript such as retro text designs at about 35k BSR and other listings around 40k, 86k, 88k and 100k BSR, with sayings like ‘my body my choice’ and ‘mind your own uterus,’ rainbow/retro styling, and uterus graphics. His core advice is not to copy the thousand sellers chasing the same headline, but to create an original, different saying so the design can stand out while the topic is trending.
Key takeaways
- Watch news, YouTube and social feeds for protests and viral topics: signs and slogans people carry are potential T-shirt statements
- He names two trending niches in this video: the broader ‘women’s rights’ niche and the narrower ‘pro choice’ niche
- Use BSR as the demand check: he points to women’s rights listings cranking around 65k-70k BSR on page one as evidence the niche is selling
- Be careful with wording: certain keywords can trigger a Merch by Amazon rejection, so research and verify terms yourself before listing
- Do not copy trending designs; create an original saying or twist, because copying puts you behind hundreds of identical competitors
