TOP TRENDING PRINT ON DEMAND Niche Research You Can SELL Now! #22 Amazon Merch & Redbubble
About this video
RJ Martinez uses Merch Informer’s Movers and Shakers to surface trending print-on-demand niches he says are selling now, usable on Merch by Amazon, Redbubble, or Etsy, and warns viewers to check trademarks and copyrights themselves. He introduces himself as doing print on demand for over five years and claims over $300,000 in all-time royalties on Merch by Amazon. Niches spotted in the scan include watermelon for summer, ‘Mamacorn’ (mom + unicorn), potato, ‘guns or glitter’ gender reveal, unicorn doing extreme things (shooting rainbows, karate, swords, jetpack, samurai/MMA), ‘just a girl who loves parakeets,’ an Easter ‘one hoppy nurse’ design where letters are replaced with themed graphics — a treatment he suggests extending to Cinco de Mayo and Fourth of July — cruise ‘blame it on the drink package’ (88 results on Amazon), ‘I work hard so my cat can have a better life’ with swappable animals/relationships, wedding planner, and ‘I have two titles: mom and Mimi.’ He stresses wanting designs that sell consistently all year, shows his monthly research spreadsheet workflow (niche, sayings, layout, inspiration pics for designers, about 25 niches a month), and says batching research into one day a week and holding yourself accountable to the sheet is how to grow.
Key takeaways
- Movers and Shakers scan surfaced: watermelon, Mamacorn, potato, guns-or-glitter gender reveal, extreme unicorn, parakeets, cruise drink package, and wedding planner niches
- Adapt proven sayings by swapping keywords — animals, relationships, or titles like mom/Mimi, mom/auntie, mom/grandma
- Holiday lettering trick: replace letters with themed graphics (e.g., Easter egg for ‘o’ in hoppy nurse) and reuse the idea for Cinco de Mayo and July 4th
- Use a research spreadsheet with niche, sayings, design layout, and inspiration images; batch research into one day and track completion
- Creator claims over $300,000 in all-time Merch by Amazon royalties — presented as his claim; always run your own trademark checks via Merch Informer/USPTO
