Top Print On Demand Niche Research Ideas (Merch By Amazon & Redbubble T-Shirt Ideas)| T-shirt design

About this video

RJ Martinez presents five print-on-demand niche ideas found with Merch Informer, stressing first how a customer will search for a product: sellers should target long-tail search phrases with little or no competition and be first with a design, rather than just designing for a niche and hoping. Niche 1 is camping: simple white text/graphics with trees, tents and campers, funny sayings, and cross-niche mixes such as camping plus Jesus and coffee. He highlights the trending phrase ‘I hate pulling out’ (107 results already) and advises finding a different funny twist or matching shirt instead of copying crowded designs. Niche 2 is drones: about 355 results, low competition and evergreen, with phrases about drone pilots and wives letting them fly; he says an evergreen design might sell two to three times a week consistently and boost in Q4, but warns to trademark-check. Niche 3 is military child - his favourite - targeting children of deployed parents with homecoming ideas such as ‘out of my way I get my daddy back today’, inspired by reunion videos on social media; he warns not to use Army, Marines, Navy or Air Force names without rights. Niche 4 is ice cream: summer, birthday crew/squad/family variants (grandpa, grandma, mom, dad) so one event drives multiple shirt purchases, plus an adult-humour flip with funny dirty popsicle sayings where competition is very low. Niche 5 is lemonade: lemonade stand boss/squad/crew/security/founder-and-CEO designs for kids running stands in summer; he says ’lemonade’ alone had only about 223 results, making it underserved. Throughout he repeats to check trademarks and use Merch Informer’s movers and shakers for research.

Key takeaways

  • Start from customer search: target long-tail phrases with little/no competition and be first, rather than designing blindly for a niche.
  • Camping: simple tent/tree graphics and funny sayings sell, but crowded phrases like ‘I hate pulling out’ need a new twist or matching design.
  • Drones are low-competition and evergreen (355 results cited); military child homecoming designs are emotional purchases - avoid service-branch names without rights.
  • Ice cream and lemonade work via family/crew variants (birthday crew, lemonade squad/crew/security) so one occasion produces multiple purchases.
  • Use Merch Informer movers and shakers for research and trademark-check every idea before uploading.
