hey what's up guys thanks for joining me
for a new episode of top five niches of
the week this is episode 76 where i'm
bringing you five of the best trending
print-on-demand niches that you can
target to hopefully increase your sales
and while this is typically probably the
hardest week of the year to find five
good niches since you guys already know
halloween is trending big time
and telling you to sell halloween shirts
really wouldn't help much i did my best
and i found at least four good ones and
then one that's
pretty closely intertwined with
halloween but i think also might have
the potential to sell year round as an
evergreen so why don't we get right into
it
[Music]
congrats to this week's two winners for
the print on demand giveaway if this
looks like your email address you'll be
hearing from me shortly with your prizes
and of course we're gonna have a new
giveaway that's already started for this
week you can enter using the link at the
top of the description or go to
ryanhog.com forward slash giveaway also
while you're in the description take
advantage of my free 8 day print on
demand mini course if you haven't
already and consider joining my print on
demand facebook community i'd love to
have you there
all right and i always like to plug my
video is this niche safe this should be
bookmarked save it to your youtube
playlist for print on demand this video
walks you through how to validate if a
niche is safe on merch by amazon the
best way that i know how because there
is no simple one-size-fits-all formula
so i think you want to kind of be as
careful as you can so i always like to
remind you guys that i have that video
and i'll put a link to it in the
description
all right niche number one
and disclaimer i don't know why this is
trending uh but it is called
t-birds
yes t-birds i don't know what t-birds
means uh the t is in quotations and it's
uppercase and then it has the words
the word birds underneath and i'm
actually editing this in after i cut
because i went and i researched what
this was and it appears to be the mascot
of the high school that they went to in
the movie greece which that movie has
got to be what like 40 years old 50
years old i don't even know i'm just
guessing it went back when john travolta
was like super young and i have seen the
movie if you guys haven't seen it it's
pretty good i mean i'm not into like
musicals and stuff like that but that
movie is like a classic classic um
anyways so i guess that's why this is
trending
i i don't know why it's trending
actually but that's at least why people
are purchasing this t-shirt now it's a
fictional mascot of a fictional
um high school from a movie that's like
super old so are you safe to sell this i
don't know i'm not the one that's gonna
tell you if you're safe or not but it's
trending and you can use that video is
this niche safe to try to be sure okay
now here you go from flying research you
can see that uh the best seller here 31
000 bsr uh 1999 price point and uh four
star review so this has been selling
consistently uh for a while now so i'm
not sure why it's trending exactly right
now but uh you know this is making
consistent sales which i like to see
all right niche number two
and this is interesting because the
niche is a little bit dramatic
oh it's referencing mean girls okay got
it
so check this out guys again it was not
easy for me to
make this video the week of halloween
okay but that being said right this is
very similar to what we just showed with
the t-birds example where the merch
algorithm is letting it through because
it's not like you're saying
you're not infringing on like the name
of the movie the characters in the movie
et cetera et cetera it's not like you
can never make a t-shirt called t-birds
ever again because this one time 50
years ago it was a fiction you know what
i mean so anyways again use it at your
own risk but it looks like the first
tank top right there says a little bit
dramatic and then it says mean girls and
that's actually from the brand mean
girls which means that
mean girls whoever owns the intellectual
property is selling officially licensed
products
on merch by amazon
that being said they're also letting
people sell basically the exact same
design minus the mean girls part
on merch by amazon as well so at your
own risk this is trending very well
um i guess people are doing like
matching halloween costumes if i had to
guess but check out these bsrs ninety
nine thousand fifty five thousand twenty
seven thousand three hundred fifty
thousand
um again you know i wish that people
weren't purchasing these because they
were in a fictional movie but
they that's probably why or maybe
they're not i don't know you can you can
be the judge uh the official branded one
from the brand mean girls that's also
priced the highest has the lowest uh or
the worst bsr at 350 000 so it's worth
noting typically the ones from the
official brands sell the best
uh and from flying research here this
tank top has a 43 000 bsr
all right niche number three
and this is the one that's kind of
halloween esque that i think could also
sell uh relatively well year-round
potentially
so it's fire and ice and i think couples
are just buying these as like cheap easy
halloween costumes that you can just
throw on
and look like you made some effort so
you got the fire shirts you've got the
ice shirts interestingly enough in
flying research the fire and the ice
shirt were ranked right next to each
other literally
uh and you know it doesn't have to work
out that way but i think it these are
selling so well together that they ended
up actually doing that
uh and that would be the two in the
middle there with the 6300 bsr and then
the 7500 bsr
uh and here from flying research the
fire shirt 4600 bsr and it's been
selling well for about a month so um
kudos to this person who put a simple
fire shirt together and it's not like
this is the only shirt on amazon that
says the word fire with some flames
right but they marketed it in a way
that makes their sales sell extremely
well around halloween every year and
probably sells well year round in
general because if you are ranked really
well when people type in like fire
and ice uh matching shirts every
halloween
and then they click your shirt well the
algorithm's still getting trained to
associate your shirt with
when people search for fire t-shirt so
year round you may start to rank better
and better on the keywords fire t-shirt
because you're selling the fire and ice
matching couple's shirt and ranking
really well
niche number four
and this is say no to drugs say yes to x
where x is a variable say no to drugs
say yes to tacos say no to drugs say us
to books say no to drugs say yes to
sloths i saw another one that was like
say no to drugs say yes to unicorns so
really whatever you want it to be
um bsrs aren't blowing you away but
they're selling pretty well six hundred
thousand two hundred thousand three
hundred thousand four hundred thousand
uh this one right here from flying
research 53 000 bsr and it's the say no
to drugs say yes to unicorns design
which by the way that design
kind of an ugly design yet it's working
your guess is as good as mine like we've
certainly seen better looking unicorns
uh when we're doing our print on demand
t-shirt research but um you know maybe
there's more to this that i don't
understand but
that unicorn is pretty ugly it looks
like the peppa pig though if you guys
have ever seen that i didn't even know
what pep pick was until i was doing
print demand research and now i see it
everywhere
all right niche number five and this is
piggybacking off of that niche that i
just showed you where it's like say no
to drugs so i think that's related to
red ribbon weak so anybody who's a drug
addict out there say no to drugs for at
least one week of the year during the
red ribbon week i guess is what's going
on here um i probably shouldn't joke
about that but whatever um
so red ribbon week i guess is in
october it's probably the last week of
october you got a 400 000 bsr 160 000
bsr 330 000 bsr 95 000 bsr
a lot of these like ribbon themed weeks
if they're not trademarked for use on
t-shirts a lot of people go to amazon
they want to show their support they
purchase the t-shirt well we can cater
to that crowd with our unique designs
this best seller right here from flying
research had a 69 000 bsr and it looks
like
yeah it was published relatively
recently that's got a
low bsr considering that it was
published just about a week ago on the
15th of october 2021 so well done to
them it's a nice design too
all right seller trends shirts that have
had a significant boost in bsr recently
not necessarily indicating that they're
going to be a mainstay amongst the best
sellers but at least that they've made a
sale and seen their bsr improve
recently so you can hit pause if you
want to but a lot of halloween shirts
halloween costume themed shirts
pretty much all of them is halloween i'd
say all right looking ahead if you want
to sell t-shirts related to seemingly
random holidays november 24th is
evolution day november 25th thanksgiving
day so it's never too early to get
started on thanksgiving right now uh
november 26th black friday november 27th
pins and needles day november 28th red
planet day
all right and a bonus t-shirt uh just
something that i was i don't know why i
felt the need to share while i was doing
my research my bonus t-shirt today is an
orange t-shirt using white text so about
as simple of a design as you can
possibly make
and it says i am a traffic cone
so it's just an orange shirt that says i
am a traffic cone now if you're this got
my wheels spinning it's like what else
is orange that you can replace the word
traffic cone with and then just call it
a halloween costume because check this
out this shirt has 20 reviews so it's
selling pretty consistently it may only
be around halloween my guess is that you
know with with amazon's traffic it
probably sells once or twice throughout
the year for like college kids and going
to costume parties maybe
but yeah um so this got the wheel
spinning i wanted to share that with you
simple halloween costume idea just using
text really and a colored t-shirt
all right deleted designs here if you
want to kind of hit pause on the video
and take a look you've got somebody
infringing on like ghostbusters logo you
got somebody infringing on the um
starbucks logo you got some more let's
go brandon getting pulled off you've got
somebody infringing on the nfl logo
definitely guys stay away from those
those are like the serious serious um
infringing designs somebody that did the
star wars logo that'll get your account
banned you know those are the serious
ones so definitely stay away
all right and just a reminder too
anybody who thinks it's like oh yeah
i'll put the m m font and make a m m
t-shirt well that's not gonna work also
the crayon shirts do not do that uh they
do not get through everybody i feel like
learns that the hard way between the you
know the m ms or the crayons uh so stay
away from those they do not work
all right guys and before we wrap the
