I Made 100 AMAZON Merch T-Shirt Designs in 1 Hour with Merch Informer Studio!
About this video
Martinez demos Merch Informer Studio as a way to scale text-based designs quickly. Note: the ‘100 designs in 1 hour’ figure is only in the video title; in the transcript he actually builds and downloads four variants in the demo. He first pitches his Top Research Design Vault, described as 700+ researched niches with new research weekly, keywords, low competition notes and design-inspiration links, for $10 a month, cancel anytime, including all previous niches. In Studio he creates a project, picks a t-shirt (noting Amazon tumblers are also available), sets a black background and white text, and uses ChatGPT to generate a scalable saying for the cat niche: ‘Life is better with rescue cats.’ He explains the same prompt can be swapped to dog breeds like corgi, English bulldog, Rottweiler, or German shepherd, and ChatGPT can give five more ideas on request. He adds a cat graphic from the built-in graphics/clip art (PNG or SVG, also noting Ideogram or custom graphics can be used), then uses Edit Text / Add Text Variant to create four text variants by changing one word/line, downloads all, extracts them, and drag-and-drops them toward an Amazon Merch upload. The second half shows Merch Informer research via Merch Hunter: filter out brands, set reviews around 10, and review all-time sales/BSR for examples including ‘voting for the convicted felon,’ Juneteenth, a 4th of July fighter-jets/American flag design first sold in 2023 that he calls evergreen, a funny Joe Biden design first sold in 2023, and ‘just here for the wieners’ first sold in April 2024. He discloses his coupon code/affiliate kickback and a free trial, and reminds viewers to check trademarks/copyright.
Key takeaways
- Scale a design by holding the layout constant and adding text variants that change just one word
- Use ChatGPT to generate scalable sayings for a niche, then ask for five more variations
- In the demo, four variants are created, downloaded together, and prepared for Amazon Merch upload
- Use Merch Hunter filters (exclude brands, low review counts) and all-time sales/BSR charts to judge demand
- A holiday-targeted design (e.g. 4th of July fighter jets) can be evergreen if its BSR shows year-round sales
