Top Print On Demand Niche Research Design Ideas #3 (Merch By Amazon & Redbubble) | Print on Demand

About this video

RJ Martinez presents five print-on-demand niche ideas for Merch by Amazon, Redbubble, Etsy and other platforms, noting audiences differ by platform so a design that fails on one may sell on another, and uploading widely increases reach. 1) Big sister: simple text designs like ‘promoted to big sister’ and ‘big sister finally’ with a dabbing unicorn, plus spin-offs he found researching, such as sister of the birthday boy/girl/princess and proud sister of a college graduate. He stresses evergreen versions without a year sell all year. 2) Funny cat with a gun: a simple cat holding a revolver and variants like a cat with two AKs in retro style; he suggests other guns, sunglasses, other animals, and notes retro sells in almost any niche. 3) Bicycle stunts: ‘I do my own stunts’ with an injured stick figure, which he says he has seen go viral; he suggests applying the fall/injury idea to horseback or bull riding and a related saying, ’never underestimate an old guy on a bicycle.’ 4) DNA tree: science/genetics illustrations aimed at scientists and biologists, plus cross-niches like ‘basketball is in my DNA,’ and retro versions. 5) Dragon: family angles like mama dragon and ‘just a girl who loves dragons,’ dragons and books, and a low-competition find, Komodo dragon (’this is my human costume, I’m really a Komodo dragon’). Throughout he warns to check trademarks and copyright, demonstrates a Merch Informer trademark check against USPTO records, and advises taking a proven saying into a low-competition niche to create a consistent seller.

Key takeaways

  • Evergreen big-sister designs — simple text plus a unicorn, sloth or similar graphic, without a year — are presented as consistent year-round sellers, with birthday-sister phrases as spin-offs
  • A simple cat holding a gun is a proven concept; vary the weapon, add sunglasses, try retro styling or swap in other animals
  • ‘I do my own stunts’ works beyond bicycles — apply the injury joke to other riding activities and related audiences
  • DNA tree designs can be crossed with sports (e.g. sport ‘is in my DNA’) or made retro to stand out in the science niche
  • Always run a trademark check (he demonstrates Merch Informer’s USPTO check) before uploading, and avoid dragon designs that infringe Marvel, Disney, Dungeons & Dragons or Game of Thrones
