hey what's up guys i am back from my
weekend trip to miami
i think i'm still catching up on sleep
i'm definitely still getting my voice
back but you know what the show must go
on i took a day off yesterday from the
youtube and i'm not gonna lie it was
great
uh today i want to do a pretty short
video and just
put out a warning do not sell this
niche because i you know came home did
my normal thing end up checking flying
research to see what's trending by the
way i did a really good video
on flying research that i dropped on
monday if you guys missed that i'll link
to in the youtube cards right here
because it shows you exactly how i use
it
to find best sellers but sometimes
some of them kind of get through that i
am considering to be very suspect as far
as
safety as far as if i were to sell this
on my account
would i be losing sleep at night over
the thought of potentially losing my
account so i'm going to show you exactly
what shirt it is
and why i think you should stay away
let's get started
quick reminder take advantage of the
free weekly print on demand giveaway
takes like 10 seconds to enter and two
winners are going to be selected they
will receive a license to
flying research which is my go-to
research tool automate pod design
creation
automation all american graphics which
are premium pre-made graphics
that you can use in your designs by the
way they're on sale right now
and bubble scout the only redbubble
niche research and validation tool again
you'll find a link in the description
also i already announced on social media
last week's giveaway number 50 winners
which also
won a free enrollment into their courses
of my choosing so i've already reached
out to them
i only heard back from one of them by
the way so in case you won check your
email
but i'll announce them in the next top
five niches of the week video as well
alright so this morning i logged into
flying research just to see what's
selling see if there's any new trends
that i need to let you guys know about
and i noticed the first product you see
all the way to the left there with a bsr
of 1988 currently
that's a really good bsr obviously under
2000 i mean that's crazy
that's making so many sales the second
time i looked i noticed
two more of these uh champions 2021
usa champions gold cup designs creeping
their way into the top five and there's
actually even more of them
selling extremely well right now but
here's the thing guys
i do not think we should be selling them
i don't actually know
if these are people like you and me
selling them or if this is people
from the actual brand conca cafe
now i'm probably saying that wrong
because this is like a big soccer
tournament
and in case if i'm saying it wrong just
make fun of me in the comments below but
either way
i don't know if this is people like us
selling these and just getting away with
infringement or if it's the actual like
concacaf league officials the people
that own the intellectual property
selling them
either way i know for sure you should
not be selling these shirts like
even if you get away with it temporarily
this is the type of shirt that
it'll all be for nothing because one day
you'll just get an email saying your
account's been closed don't email us
back you're not getting it back you know
what i mean
this is a prime example now normally
flying research does a good job of
filtering these out however it's
imperfect like they're probably doing
this algorithmically
and they're probably smart enough to
recognize big brands like marvel mtv
disney etc okay but
this seems relatively new like we know
the merch team is doing
they're looking for brand partnerships
and stuff so this could have been a new
thing
and of course the sales popped because
usa actually won the gold cup and uh let
me let me just
pull this up because i when i did a
google search earlier it did this little
animation
so i don't know when the last time you
guys were on google was but uh check
that out pretty cool right
they do like little anybody listening to
the podcast version google does these
little like fireworks and
american flag fireworks when you google
something that they just won
so pretty cool anyways just wanted to
show you guys that
um you can see here the number one
bestseller is a premium white t-shirt it
looks similar but it's not the exact
same
to some of the other designs available
here is a black shirt
now i don't know if i actually
screenshotted um some of the other ones
but there are like slight variations
on the design that you can find being
sold
i can pull one up over here actually so
here's one
okay and you can see they have like a
different font um that they used here
and like different
um font sizes etc compare that to
this where it's a little bit smaller
okay so
again i don't know if this is like
official or not if people are trying to
slip through the cracks but
this is a big warning to stay away um
coming from my mouth to your
to your ears because i don't want
anybody like losing an account over this
if you didn't know any better and you
just
did you went to the niche research tool
you said okay it's there
i should be safe and then all of a
sudden you lose your account
like let's see if i just pulled up the
niche research tool today in the top
like
let's just see the top three rows one
two three four
five six seven there's at least seven of
them in the top three rows
but then you got to do your due
diligence guys you can't rely on other
people to do it for you i know most you
guys already know this but i just wanted
to put this out there like i said
i'm not huge into soccer so i had to do
a little bit of research and this
actually seems like a very official
brand it looks like they've got a bunch
of different competitions they've got
women's competitions men's competitions
um they've got like national level
competitions which is what i believe the
usa just won
but they've got like under 17 under 15
beach soccer
footsall championships olympic
qualifying under 20 championships so
they got a lot
that's the whole point like the bigger
and bigger and bigger it gets the more
likely it is that they've got
legal representatives that are going to
go after you if you try to rip off their
intellectual property now i haven't
tried to upload any of these it's also
quite possible that the merch algorithm
will just immediately reject you but
also remember
i've said this before i know not
everybody catches all my videos i've
said in the past that i
very strongly believe there are
different varying degrees of rejections
and this is the type of rejection that i
think will get you like your account
closed
whereas there's a lot like there's some
that are much more innocent which may
just be like a fringe keyword
um you know content policy uh a
trigger where i don't think it's gonna
get you in as much trouble guys so this
is what i'm guessing is uh
is gonna be a bad one and i clicked the
brand the
conca conca caf i know i'm saying that
wrong
uh the brand and there's actually a
bunch there is a ton
i can actually reopen one of these maybe
and i'll just show you guys really
quickly before we wrap
this video um that there's a ton of
these
selling on that brand
now that doesn't mean that you know it
doesn't mean anything one way or the
other
uh it just leads me to kind of believe
that either people are posting them on
this brand or that it is the official
brand itself
and they've just got a bunch of products
listed on it as you can see here
different product types sweatshirts
hoodies everything you'd expect
now the fact that the design looks very
similar across the board
leads me to believe this may actually be
like an officially licensed brand
okay so they've got quite a bit they've
even got like other countries
uh gold cup shirts so that's it that's
all i wanted to cover guys thank you for
