all right in this video i'm going to show you how to find a low competition niche
for merch by amazon hi guys my name is rj martinez and i have sold over 270 000 in royalties with my
merch by amazon account so by following these simple steps you'll be able to dominate your
competitors and start making a lot of money with your merch account so stay tuned all right so one
of the ways that i like to do research one of the new ways is tick tock okay as you can see
up here if you type in like let's say let's say uh look at you when you type in the search bar
so i typed in funny shirts for women look at all these other ideas that are popping up right here
okay funny shorts for guys funny t-shirts for men and you can click any one of these but
for example funny shirts for women as you come down here there's all kinds of different types
of videos about this so you can see that there's a funny saying on a shirt spoiler alert i don't
care you can see what they did right there and that is a t-shirt idea if you see these
type of t-shirts like this you just the goal is to think of something different and be creative
and try to be different from them you don't want to copy any of these designs and throw them onto
another platform okay that's a big thing that goes on in the community you don't do not want
to do that you want to think of ideas look at these and see what's selling in these niches
and try to come up with your own ideas in here right which takes a little bit of work okay so
you have to understand that if you go down here if you keep on scrolling down you're going to see
a ton of different you know different designs on shirts now some of these may be infringing like
on brands and stuff like that so of course you have to double check and make sure that as far
as trademarks and stuff like that you want to make sure that you're not breaking any rules on
the merch by amazon platform just because you see that they're doing it doesn't mean that you
have to do it right that's one of the big things that i've always said as far as creating content
you want to make sure that you're following the rules okay so you go down you know just
come in here and just scroll down do some research and see what's doing well see like
what's uh you know how many plays some of these videos are getting if this is something that's
selling me it may be doing not so well over here on tick tock but then you go over to amazon and
check the niche it's doing really well okay just that's something that you want to double check so
do that search over here on tick tock let's say you see a funny saying take that funny saying go
over to amazon see if it's doing well and see what else you can create inside of that niche and you
know be the best obviously but for the most part just like any other search bar you know you can
type in a different funny shirts for guys and see what else pops up okay so on and so forth the goal
is to look at these trending hashtags maybe you see a trending hashtag that's popping up on tiktok
and you can literally create a funny phrase as a hashtag right and the next thing you know you can
create a awesome design with that hashtag and then the hashtag goes viral then boom you start making
sales right which is that's it's it's crazy how that works okay um you want to think of twitter
too any of these platforms and this applies to any social media platform instagram facebook
twitter tik tok okay it doesn't matter okay doing research it takes a little bit of time but once
you get the understanding of it you're like okay cool i'm gonna be following these hashtags and
seeing what's going on in here like the for you for you page hashtag is a big one too as well and
these are all clickable as you can see so yeah you get the point and it's a rinse and repeat
process so when you do that just come down you know you're going to keep on just searching and
seeing what else you can find inside of these videos and create a t-shirt idea something else
i want to add in there real quick as you can see over here uh mother's day was a trending hashtag
because it happened over the weekend uh yesterday which was right here the eighth okay may 8th over
here in the us you can see how crazy that you know the just the the trend went so crazy so when it
comes to anything like this this hashtag is going off the charts so if you come over here and search
mother's day there's a lot of gifts being given that day okay so what do you do right what do
you do you come over here to search and you start doing research and see what people are giving away
to you know their mothers and you might find you know a shirt or or something being like you know
some type of funny shirt um as you can see like i can see there's a shirt right here on that image
i'm not sure sure exactly what it says but if you can figure that out that can be you know obviously
a shirt idea that you can go after so i would there's probably millions of videos that were
created for mother's day so i would just go down and just start digging in there and seeing what
you can do and then you would do that for the next holiday that would be coming up and see if you can
get ahead get a shirt up on merch by amazon and start making sales with it right and remember
even looking at the sayings and the videos right some people say funny sayings in a video okay like
the text in the video there's funny texts being said in the video that can be a short idea too
so think think think about it do you do your you know do your research and create something awesome
all right so uh one of the best ways is go to merchresearch.com okay you're gonna come over here
leave all this blank right and you're gonna hit search okay this is the classic way that i've been
doing it for probably like five six seven years and i've taught many people how to do this okay
and you come over here sir sort by and then you come over hit newest arrivals okay and the
goal is to come in here and this little tool that i'm using is uh the dsd amazon quickview
and basically it lets you see the bsrs on the front page and what we're looking for is a bsr
okay this is these these designs have been recently you know uploaded to amazon because
we sorted it that way and the goal is to find a bsr for a t-shirt and what the idea
behind that is to see what niches are selling right now and then you create something that is
basically different from everyone else okay that's the goal every time you go into one
of these niches you want to figure out okay is there a design that i've that i can create
and you know and it may take a few days to maybe you think of something to come
up with the design idea right so you just keep going look at there we go wife mom teacher bro
look it has a cell okay and uh let's say if you open this up come down here let's see when it was
uploaded you can see it was uploaded on the ninth which is today and maybe you don't maybe this one
is you know i don't you know maybe you don't understand that or or maybe you don't you're
not feeling that that design or or that that that niche right there you want to create something
different keep going keep doing the same thing okay you can see right here mercy happy mother's
day best mom and and just like i said like it just gives you an insight of what's going on and
you know what's selling 1973 and making sure that you do your research because you see
something that's selling then you jump into the niche and you're like okay it's selling
i'm going to create something in this niche and next thing you know it you're like it's it's not
a okay niche to design for right and you can see 1973 i think this is something have to do with
something political that's going on right now in the world because you can see this one has a cell
this one has a cell and if you keep going down you see that one has to sell that one has to sell so
it's definitely trending on amazon something like that is definitely trending on amazon
and there may be a lot of competition in here but there's so many people buying inside of these
niches that it's just rotating amazon's rotating the designs on the front page so if you're on page
10 the rotate rotates your design to the front and boom makes a sell okay so always think about
like you know you when you make a sale you get close to the front page right and these sometimes
these higher competition niches right uh will have you know a lot of competition with they'll have a
ton of people buying inside of that niche right which is freaking powerful really really powerful
so don't limit yourself to these you know if look think about you know if you go into these
you know bigger niches with a lot of competition can you make a sell and most of the time you can
you probably can okay but you just have to figure out what can you make create can that can be
different from everyone else okay understanding the customer understand who's buying it and what
they like and give it to them all right so i was doing some research this morning and i came across
this funny scene on a shirt okay say i don't know how to i don't know how to act my age i've never
been this old before okay as you can see it's right here i don't know how to act my age i've
never been this old before okay so and it's it's it's doing pretty well it's a consistent seller
in a niche but i'm thinking okay like when you see this type of stuff like simple text based designs
that are doing well on shirts think about just come on over here to google come on here google
type in funny you know say like let's say like um funny old age quotes you can see how it say
or sayings or whatever it is let's say let's say quotes okay and then we come over here to images
and then we get ideas like of like funny sayings in here okay see right here this one for example
age is not how old you are but how many years of how many years of fun you've had okay you
see exactly what i'm talking about right there and there's a ton of you know different ideas that you
can come up with in here just you know you just gotta do the research come in here and see what's
going on okay maybe there's a funny saying in the world right now that literally you can just take
one key word out of there and then you have another you know top selling design for another
niche okay if you have a funny saying for a niche right now it's doing really well take
that same phrase and apply it to another niche okay so there's so many different ways that you
can do this and you can see exactly how i just did it right there for you just showing you you know
funny different scenes and looking at different quotes stuff like that and you know as the proof
over here you can see on the shirt you know it has bsrs that's selling consistently as you can
see here and here okay and obviously you know a lot of people are using the same you know saying
on the shirt so this takes a little bit of work but if you get that design down correctly or if
you create that design and be the first one on amazon or on etsy or on redbubble you're going
to have a consistent seller that's going to make sales and it's just the way it works okay
see built in the 40s original and under stored some parts some parts still in the working order
and they look it they went ahead and applied it here here and just switched out to 60s okay
look at the bsrs you know they have cells that's exactly what i'm talking about right there okay
so which is really cool so rinse it repeat and then boom and if you want some more niche ideas
make sure you watch this video right here peace make sure you guys give this video a thumbs up
