Print On Demand St Patrick's Day Niche Research 2021 Ideas - (Research Before You Start Designing)
About this video
For St Patrick’s Day 2021 research, the creator’s core method is to take a saying or design already selling well in your own niche and remix it for the holiday, without copying anyone else’s design. He distinguishes the three-leaf shamrock from the lucky four-leaf clover, then gives angles: video games mixed with the holiday (a clover with controllers, aimed at kids/boys/girls), dabbing leprechauns or a dabbing bulldog turned into a leprechaun with a hat, pot of gold, rainbow or beer — noting beer cannot target kids — and gnomes, which he says do well for every holiday. Using Helium 10 he highlights the long-tail keyword ‘St Patrick’s Day hockey shirt’ with good consistent search volume and only 123 Amazon results, arguing a creative design could reach the front page with one or two sales. By contrast ‘Irish breathalyzer’ has 113 results but all use the same design, making it hard to stand out. On Etsy he shows a simple text ’luckiest teacher ever’ shirt at $21.99 with 20 added to carts, noting the teacher niche works for any trending holiday. He warns pandemic-themed mask, sanitiser and toilet-paper designs are a grey area on Amazon that he personally avoids to protect his account, and reminds viewers to check phrases and titles for trademarks.
Key takeaways
- Remix a proven saying from your existing niche with St Patrick’s Day elements instead of starting from scratch or copying a selling design
- Strong angles named: video-game clover designs for kids, dabbing leprechaun/animal illustrations, and gnomes for holidays generally
- Helium 10 long-tail find: ‘St Patrick’s Day hockey shirt’ had good search volume with only 123 Amazon results, leaving front-page room
- Avoid saturated single-design phrases like ‘Irish breathalyzer’ (113 near-identical results) where standing out is hard
- Stay off pandemic mask/sanitiser themes on Amazon, do not target kids with beer imagery, and always trademark-check phrases and titles
