Print On Demand: Low Competition Niche Ideas

About this video

The creator walks through low-competition print-on-demand ideas found by researching Amazon, arguing the method works for sellers on Amazon, Etsy, Redbubble, TeePublic, Society6, or their own sites. He looks for designs with strong Best Sellers Rank and consistent sales but few competing results, then urges viewers to create their own original version rather than copy. Examples include a samurai Bigfoot Japanese UFO vintage graphic, which he says had about 110 results, and suggests swapping Bigfoot for another animal such as a duck or goose; a funny goose lifting weights, which he says had about 134 results and which he estimates sells one to two a day; a shark species chart suited to summer interest around shark programming, with about 231 results; a ‘Roar Three Rex’ third-birthday dinosaur design, with about 219 results, where he notes families often buy matching sets; and a gaming axolotl with a headset and drink, with about 210 results. He explains that front pages with many BSRs under 500K signal demand, promotes his paid research vault, and demonstrates Merch Informer’s Merch Hunter to filter listings, while repeatedly warning viewers to double-check trademarks and copyrights.

Key takeaways

• Judge a niche by both demand signals like a low, consistent BSR and low search-result counts, not by either alone
• Mash up a proven character or theme with an unexpected setting, such as Bigfoot with samurai and UFO elements, to make an original angle
• Birthday designs can multiply revenue because buyers often purchase matching family versions, not just one shirt
• Enter bigger niches through a specific sub-audience, for example a particular type of gamer, instead of targeting everyone
• Use a research tool like Merch Hunter to surface candidates, but always do your own trademark and copyright checks before listing
