Unlock Hidden Print-on-Demand Niches: Make $2000+ a Day with These Secret Techniques!

About this video

In a freestyle, no-pre-research session, RJ Martinez shows how he finds low-competition print-on-demand niches using Merch Informer’s Movers and Shakers and Merch Hunter, plus the Amazon search bar itself. Starting from a selling dinosaur design (‘I’m getting a dinosaur’), he narrows the broad niche into sub-niches by specific dinosaur types such as T-Rex and long neck, checking Amazon result counts as he adds ‘shirt’ and longer-tail phrasing, and notes that large, attention-grabbing artwork and reviews signal what the market is rewarding. He repeats the method with cornhole — finding phrases like ‘aim throw swear repeat’ and suggesting original flips such as swapping in a different middle word rather than copying — and notes the same phrase-flipping can transfer to other activities like axe throwing or horseshoes. Browsing Merch Hunter results, he points to election shirts as a high-volume seasonal example, Christmas in July designs mixing Santa, palm trees, beach and Christmas sayings, and remixes of very popular phrases, while repeatedly warning to research trademarks/copyright and avoid song lyrics, movie quotes, and risky words/brands. Throughout he pitches his Top Research Design Vault. Creator claims in the video: he says he is close to over $400,000 in all-time royalties from Amazon Merch alone (almost $2 million in sales), has spent close to $100,000 on ads, and has had the account close to eight years; he also reports seeing screenshots of other sellers making over $2,000 in a day on election shirts.

Key takeaways

• Start from a proven broad seller, then drill into a sub-niche (dinosaur → T-Rex / specific dinosaur types) and check Amazon result counts with ‘shirt’ and long-tail terms
• Flip a selling phrase by changing one word or moving it to a different activity niche instead of copying the design
• Use Merch Informer’s Movers and Shakers to spot what is selling now and Merch Hunter to dig for lower-review, lower-competition results
• Seasonal/event angles covered include election shirts and Christmas in July (Santa with palm trees, beach and Christmas sayings remixed for summer)
• Always do your own trademark and copyright checks — creator warns against song lyrics, movie quotes, and trademarked words/brands even when other listings appear to get away with them
