hey what's up guys welcome to redbubble
shop reviews this is episode number 51
and we're gonna be looking at six new
redbubble shops submitted by you guys
the viewers and if you'd like me to
review your shop please use the link in
the description and submit it in the
print on demand facebook group alright
let's get started
real quick reminder i've got some free
resources for you all linked in the
description i've got my weekly print on
demand giveaway my eight day print on
demand mini course and my print on
demand facebook group so i hope you
check all those out all right
redbubble's shop number one is
b
siri x 3m i don't know how to pronounce
the name but you have a you have 1200
designs posted so i respect that you got
a cool banner here with your designs
highlighted that's always a great use of
that design uh banner space featured
collection animal jokes and puns
love that trust me i'm a doctor this is
something someone could put in their uh
doctor's office so that's great i mean
and this is the type of product that
like for sure would it's gonna make
sales if you can just get it in front of
the right
customer so it's almost like this the
type of product that you could probably
sell
on a shopify store and run some google
ads you know i mean honestly because i
think it's a great design and you know
that that probably sells all day
uh united we stand by them we fall i
mean capitalizing on trends and whatnot
uh what else we are not tacos we'll vote
republican we are not tacos we'll vote
republican okay got it got it
um great designs by the way in terms of
like using the circular space the flag
in the background um that's great i mean
in general just like design styles
uh sh thinking got it you misspelled
thinking it says think
but i like that design style with the um
it's like that
marilyn monroe uh poster that i think
andy warhol did where he made different
uh versions of the colors so i do like
that as well
what else you got going on here
generally speaking i mean this is and
when you get to 1200 designs i think by
by then you start to figure out how to
go about
taking an approach to design
that you know works uh if you're going
to put 1200 designs up you might as well
spend some time
studying uh the best practices of the
best-selling designs so i think this
shop really did a great job of doing
that and also a nice mix of like
t-shirts stickers you know the best
sellers
shop number two is jast mood
joined in 2021 258 designs so i do wish
you had
more designs posted but it looks like
you're still active your featured
collection catering to halloween skulls
ghosts etc
a good mix of like text and graphics you
know keeping it simple although i think
some of these designs you've got like
you know for instance this one
and maybe even this one probably look
best
on t-shirts instead of as a sticker um
just being honest here uh so maybe like
you know i mean it's not that you know
if someone types in like halloween shirt
or like ghost shirt
lonely ghost shirt
redbubble's intelligent enough to put
the shirt in front of them with that
same design so it's not that big of a
deal you know when i'm critiquing like i
think showing the sticker view by
default is probably just fine but also
most people find you through doing an
actual search anyways
yeah it looks like you're you're
defaulting to a lot of stickers which is
a that's just fine we know that works
and the sticker packs also a great
strategy
um great looking designs generally
speaking
in terms of and lots of uh variability
in the design styles as well so i wonder
how you're getting these designs um the
perfect day style you know this is a
classic we know that
there's often some of these like
creeping up into the best-selling
designs of amazon merch as well
so you know i'm guessing you just
probably saw it there and you were like
okay let me make a uh make my own
versions of it wake up love my dad eat
breakfast love my dad eat lunch love my
dad so probably a great father's day um
shirt although i would be careful with
your keywords right so this is a really
long set of keywords and i don't think
the redbubble algorithm is that robust
and that intelligent and figuring out
uh
you know matches like i always aim for
an exact match on redbubble i don't
stuff multiple phrases or multiple
fringe broad match keywords on redbubble
i just try to put one phrase that i
think is going to be an exact match with
what someone searches so in this case um
my perfect day
love my dad i don't know
i love my dad love my dad's shirt i
don't know father's day shirt but that's
super generic um but instead you put a
lot of different phrases here so that
might be tough uh in getting ranked
shot number three christopher
alcorn
australia coin a ucoin
uh they have 1500 designs so really well
done also showing some of your designs
off in the banner there that's always a
great idea
uh best sellers up there in the featured
collection magic the catering uh so a
lot of like you know another another
magic the catering there
hey i'm guessing you got two of them up
there and your best sellers maybe that's
something that was working really well
for you and you doubled down you guys
know i'm a big fan of the double down
when you find something that is finally
working uh you've even got the triple
down here the quadruple down you've got
even more so lots of cats
playing magic the gathering of course
magic the gathering you're probably not
supposed to have you know at least at a
minimum these cards right here like if
if you i'm just saying in theory not
that this would probably happen but if
you ended up in court and you had to
defend yourself against the lawyers for
magic the gathering you'd have a tough
time
uh having any legal defense when you've
got you know magic the gathering cards
like i don't know if you guys can
actually see but it looks like there are
actual magic the gathering cards there
in the cat's hands so i would probably
recommend against going that far for
sure uh but magic the catering
again it might be a little too close but
again this is why like the legal system
exists in the united states to actually
determine you know through litigation
who's right who's wrong et cetera
but
on redbubble we know also that a lot of
people have a disregard
for the rules so sorry for the dogs in
the background um the disregard for the
rules like it's not something that i'm
willing to do you know and the bigger
your account gets
the more those infringements
can uh actually cost you
so i would just kind of recommend like
as you build your account up uh probably
steer clear
of you know anything that you may think
could get you in trouble it looks like
you do have quite a few like kind of
magic the gathering type
gaming um type designs so just be really
careful with those
shop number four from key largo united
states 823 designs you guys are killing
it you're doing a great job with uh
actually being consistent and you know
selling on redbubble you know for maybe
you know over a year i'm guessing a lot
of 2021 shops but over the last year um
posting consistently getting up above i
always say 500 designs i like that as a
benchmark and featured collections
sticker packs uh let's take a closer
look at some of these this is actually
really smart how you're doing these
um
check these out so halloween sticker
packs here by the way you can always
switch it from small to you know large
or whatever
uh it takes a second for redbubble to
render it if it hasn't been rendered i
mean check out that's a nice large
sticker pack
and i mean that's great value you know
you're providing value perceived value
to the customer
more
sticker packs here
let's move it to large or just check out
the design so it looks like you just
kind of created a design template you
got the sunset
the beach and then some text mixed in
that's a really great way and you can
scale these out you can use automate pod
you can use illustrator and you can have
it like just swap in and out the text
for you
as long as you just go to like wikipedia
and grab a list of locations or beaches
right feed it in and you're good to go
so i mean i really love this approach
and you know in the fourth quarter which
is right around the corner you're gonna
be rewarded for this hard work so
really well done there you know the the
skull stickers ahead of halloween
although it is a little bit weird seeing
the different design styles and i'm also
in terms of like print on demand a big
i'm not a fan at all of like kind of the
gradient
almost like 3d bevel emboss bevel and
emboss style design like in the bottom
left corner there i'm not a big fan of
that at all so i like more of like a
flat design um generally speaking like
99 times out of 100 and then you got the
sharks here as well in a sticker pack so
that's really cool
um great idea you know as long as it
looks okay when you have the text which
it looks like you actually put a
background on the text as well so
um yeah really well done well executed
and i wish i could see like how your
shop is performing it looks like you've
got like a templated approach stop i see
key deer stop i see an iguana stop i see
a pelican so you live
or it says at least you know key largo
so maybe it's florida keys yeah so
that's really cool i love that your shop
is kind of inspired by
what it's like to live in the keys i've
only been once but it was a great time i
think it was like two years ago um i
forget what key it was though duck key
maybe i think um anyways there for a
wedding it was a good time
all right next shop the ring bearer co
960 designs from greece so you guys are
just killing it in this episode today
really well done to all the shop owners
that we've taken a look at uh featured
collection gaming we know gaming is
absolutely killing it
gamer dad kind of replacing the font
with controllers i don't know if that's
a real font or if it's something you
made but i love that sticker
this is what i was talking about here i
love that as an idea if you did actually
make that yourself really well done way
to think outside the box
uh the i got to do a shout out here wasd
is what moves me because i'm myself a uh
pc gamer i don't get into it too much
these days because i'm so busy but pc
gaming is my roots it is ultimately what
led me to being a web developer which
led me to the passive income journey
which led me to the youtube journey
which is why you know we're watching
this video here so shout out to the pc
gaming
um
yeah a lot of like you got an
interesting design style but one thing
as i'm just doing a quick scroll um you
know you're doing a good job designing
with your you know various font font
sizes color contrast because i'm able to
like read your designs even just through
a quick scroll like i know what your
designs are actually of
um definitely adhering to like best
practices
these are just basic design styles that
work that you can use to enter any niche
right get the sunset the silhouette text
above text below great color scheme
undefeated hide and seek world champion
with bigfoot i mean i love that
uh
bmx dad with the silhouette i mean this
is keeping it simple not overthinking
anything using what we know works to
make beautiful designs putting them up
on redbubble i really hope that you're
putting them up on
etsy and on amazon as well because
that's going to help you get the most
out of the great work that you're
putting into your shop um because you
know redbubble low barrier of entry we
know it's tough we know it's tough it
doesn't mean you shouldn't be on
redbubble because it's so easy to upload
redbubble
even you've even got like stickers like
you know the weed leaf but you did the
you did the um
the clipping mask you know you got the
pattern overlay by the way you can do
these in bulk in my design software as
well so if you guys haven't checked out
my designs i always put a link in the
description uh just scroll down a little
bit and you'll find it
you can literally take all your designs
if you have silhouettes move them all
like upload them all in bulk and then
just do the pattern overlays i call it
clipping masks from photoshop but um
yeah and you can make a bunch of these
with any shapes whatever you want
all right we had a shop that was uh
removed or deleted hopefully you weren't
infringing or anything like that all
right shop number six 1200 designs from
sweden you guys are just crushing it
today it's beautiful
featured collection is super funny um
some great looking color schemes for
sure like i love the color scheme like
the miami vice color scheme on the naked
get naked stickers
um the miami vice you can just go around
miami dropping to get naked stickers all
over the place love that uh what else
you got going on here that's a really
cool
pasteli color scheme you got some great
colors actually on your shop that's what
stands out immediately to me like check
out this
i don't know i might have to borrow that
color scheme sometimes i do these
reviews i'm like yeah i really like
those you know i don't think i have
anything like it on my you know my list
but i love the pastels here beautiful
this one i'm not as big of a fan of like
i love this one more but um still a
really cool design and i love that when
it's encased in a circle and you've even
got the flowers kind of floating outside
the circle um breaking what's expected
really cool more of the get naked stuff
maybe that's something that's selling
for you um double down on it
what else you got eat out to help out
i do what i want you got the um cat yoga
okay cat yoga meditation is that like a
one of the new pet products like the the
pet mat or something
some great design styles here you know
eat out to help out okay so you know you
got some different niches that you're
doing like kind of some repetition in
different designs in the same niche
hopefully you made some sales there and
you said hey i'm going to upload more in
that niche because it's making me sales
eat out to help out again the nope with
the dog that's actually a really nice
look at the color scheme some
some of these colors are just beautiful
they just pop off this the screen like
check that out with the pug or sorry
english bulldog i don't know what i'm
talking about sorry

another great design i love that that
color pink is just screaming
