How To Get Your First Sales On Redbubble (Increase Redbubble Sales - Sell Your Art Tips) | POD

About this video

RJ Martinez explains how to get first and consistent sales on Redbubble, applicable, he says, from beginner to expert on any POD platform. The core mistake he targets is designing what you want instead of what the customer wants. He advises researching the target audience — their colors, preference for simple text vs graphic vs illustration — via Facebook groups, Reddit threads, Pinterest, Etsy, Amazon, and Google, and thinking like the algorithm: what exact keywords or phrases will a customer type into the search bar, e.g. ‘Halloween English bulldog t-shirt,’ then making that product. He covers studying top artists and trending styles for inspiration without copying, borrowing a proven phrase from another niche and applying it to yours, keeping early designs simple or outsourcing to artists, building a comfortable, memorable shop brand with simple colors, banner and logo for long-term repeat buyers, and treating tags as equally important as the design. On pricing he says he personally tests around 55% markup on most products and about 200% on stickers, citing as his claim a $32-33 profit when one customer bought three shirts.

Key takeaways

• Design for what the customer searches for and wants to buy, not for your own taste
• Research audiences where they gather — Facebook groups, Pinterest, Etsy, Amazon — to learn colors, styles, and phrases they respond to
• Titles and tags drive ranking together: research competitor tags, use 8-15 relevant tags, and never keyword-spam unrelated terms
• A proven tactic is to take a trending phrase/style that works in other niches and be first to apply it in your niche
• Build a simple, comfortable shop brand for repeat buyers and market via social analytics and influencer/group-admin shoutouts to boost organic ranking
