hey what's up guys welcome to top five
niches of the week episode 110 by the
way hope you guys have been enjoying
your summer man it's been so beautiful
outside although yesterday uh we spent a
lot of time outside i helped marielle at
the farmers market where she's been
trying to build brand awareness and
selling some of her like boutique dog
products like dog ice cream you can
check it out at shophealthyhound.com
uh helped her at the farmer's market
went out got some drinks beautiful day
got some sun i don't know if it shows in
the uh
the video but anyways man hope you guys
have been enjoying your summer so far
and make sure to get outside and get
some sunlight and enjoy yourself but
today we have five new print on demand
niches that you can target to hopefully
increase your sales in the near term at
least until next week when we do episode
111 so why don't we get started
[Music]
real quick we need to announce last
week's giveaway winners so
congratulations if this looks like your
email address keep an eye out for an
email from me i'll have your prizes to
you today
also we're kicking off a new free print
on demand giveaway so make sure you
enter using the link at the top of the
description uh completely free by the
way also in the description i've got my
eight day print on demand mini course
delivered via email and i've got a great
print on demand facebook group that i
would love to have you in
and here is my merch by amazon sales
update for the last seven days so i made
338
sales 16 returns i believe this is just
u.s market by the way so definitely did
a little bit better than this with the
international sales but in the us i did
1 260 in royalties and an average
royalty of 3.72 cents per sale and you
know what i decided to pause the video
and double check that that was true so
here you go here are my international
sales brought to you by the pretty merch
pro plus analytics tab which helps you
drill down into all your data formats it
makes it really nice and uh easy to look
at easy to digest so here you go so i
did an extra what 300 i did an extra 100
oh an extra 92 sales when you count the
international
all right let's get to these top five
niches niche number one is definitely
the low hanging fruit where if you're in
tier 10 uh this is probably where i
would heavily focus
other than if new niches present
themselves which is always possible
there's always you know the doors always
open for trends to pop up out of nowhere
so niche number one is july 4th when you
type in july 4th uh the top four
listings that you get right now are all
kind of making fun of joe biden then you
got the american flag right there so i
don't know how the generic american flag
is doing so well they might be running a
lot of ads uh but either way you know
well done uh that's just the reason i
say that is because it's such a generic
like easy to replicate shirt although i
will say it looks like they've got the
blue color selected which maybe they're
standing out by only selecting a certain
color and making one color available
there's an absolute ton of july 4th sub
niches of course so don't forget like
all presidents all us presidents tend to
have a nice little july 4th cross niche
potential
there's also fireworks so don't sleep on
july 4th firework shirts um this is not
all-inclusive by the way this is just me
giving you some ideas there's also a
july 4th alcohol related shirts just
make sure you don't check the youth
checkbox i repeat do not check the youth
checkbox if you sell july 4th
cross niche with alcohol okay because
that's not going to end well
all right let's move on to niche number
two now like i always say like sometimes
these videos are super easy to do
sometimes they're a little bit harder to
do like sometimes the niches are very
easy to find other times i'm like damn
there isn't really the low hanging fruit
beyond maybe just july 4th so in this
case
i'm trying to just think of hey what's
going on right now that people are
buying t-shirts about you know it tends
to be whatever people are spending their
time doing or planning in the near
future they may buy a t-shirt for so
niche number two
how about family vacation all right and
the nice thing about family vacation
is number one there's so much cross
niche potential it could just be fun uh
family vacation it could be generic
family vacation it could be family
vacation we're flying family vacation
we're driving family vacation we're
taking a boat
family vacation we're family staycation
maybe they're just staying in i don't
know uh family vacation let's go fishing
a lot of hawaii stuff or hawaii themed a
lot of tropical stuff
um for some reason the shirt that says
i'm just here for the snacks is what
ranks first when you oh it's a disney
shirt i think because look at although i
don't know if that's official disney
because if it was it should be filtered
out so somebody might just be infringing
on disney which i would not recommend
now that i look closer at that so be
careful there
um but yeah family vacation big
potential as we head into the summer
also
check this out i had a family vacation
shirt without giving up my exact niche
but i sold 13 of them to one customer or
you know i don't know if it's to one
customer but i sold 13 in one day so i
would imagine that it was most likely to
one customer and made a very healthy
67.99
in royalties by the way that's a lot of
shirts to one family so maybe it's a
large family also they all did it in one
color so they're all going to be
matching in that heather blue so there
you go i'm just saying hey it's not just
theory sometimes these actually work
and here is the okay yeah so i think
unless you know something about brand
fashion icon usa
uh they certainly look like they're
infringing on disney so um this brought
to you by pretty merch pro plus by the
way lets you drill down using the
product analyzer feature and see some um
more in-depth data points this one
actually you can see when you go to the
data analyzer you get a um
you get a better insight into the
updated bsr it looks like this one's
actually dropped from 150k to 200k
so it's actually trending the opposite
direction
all right niche number three
all right we're staying on that theme
guys it's summer it's beautiful outside
um depending on where you live it may be
like too hot to go outside here in
virginia it was like friday was too hot
man like we worked out outside me and
marielle like to do that on fridays if
we can and it was just like it drained
me i was like dead um
it was like seriously a struggle like i
shouldn't have been out there it was
like 100 it felt like it was 100 degrees
but then you know yesterday saturday
beautiful day today sunday beautiful day
we're gonna go uh to this um orchard and
like pick some fruit after i get this
video posted so i'll probably be there
while you watch it but um yeah get
outside so this theme is like beach
themed definitely like do your own
research and kind of scroll for a while
and get a feel of the design style that
customers are preferring but also i mean
i think i just typed in like beach i
gave it a really high level generic seed
keyword to just see what direction it
took me and as you can see there's a lot
of even just very generic like tropical
themed um tropical vibe you know
t-shirts and maybe people are buying
them and cutting the sleeves off make
sure you make them available on tank
tops etc uh but get those summer vibes
you've got some hawaii north shore a
long board surf competition so i mean
whenever i see stuff like that i'm
always like i don't know if that's from
like a so i always say is it from a tv
show i don't know you know i don't watch
that much tv but it always could be when
you see two of the same one they both
have really low bsrs it always makes me
wonder so just be safe although i think
one of them might actually be a tank top
down there at the bottom
uh and then you see here like one of the
best sellers here is a dabbing pineapple
you know the years 2022 we're still
talking about dabbing characters on
t-shirts so i guess some things never
change but hey that's a really amazing
design and perfect
complementary color against that black
uh thumbnail t-shirt so really well
executed there
niche number four
and this one is
hey it's summer i can't be the only one
that does the occasional uh round of day
drinking like yesterday was beautiful we
went outside to this this outdoor
brewery they had live music they just a
really nice setup in uh in virginia so
hey i don't know why this one t-shirt by
the way it's a bad day to be a beer i
don't know why that one sells so well
whenever i see the same design
replicated my mind always thinks well it
might be pointing to something that
people recognize personally i don't know
what it's from but either way it doesn't
mean that that's the only day drinking
shirt that you can sell uh for sure like
there's a lot of ways to take
the day drinking sub niche for instance
the second one right there is just a
text only design with a little bit of a
distressed effect it says support day
drinking that's hilarious okay bsrs
ranging from forty thousand to sixty
thousand to ninety thousand to you know
around two hundred thousand so and also
look at the spot in the number five spot
there it's uh another like tropical
themed tropical color
day drinking themed shirt
by the way you could scale that design
out too it says you had me at and then
it says day drinking but if you're using
design scaling you can also have it just
automatically switch the text of day
drinking to other hobbies and activities
and download them for you and then if
you want to you could use upload
automation which i'm using right now
while i record this and have it upload
for you so pretty good deal also again
you can see some tank tops are selling
quite well there
all right and niche number five
and this i was thinking you know what do
we do when the su when the weather's
nice it's summer we go outdoors we hike
uh right down the street there's a
couple like really nice and i don't say
really nice they're not that nice
they're pretty short but uh you would
think they were really nice from the
amount of people that are constantly
causing a traffic jam on the road um
trying to get to these hiking locations
if you want to call it that like
marielle she lived in colorado for she
went there for college so she doesn't
consider those hikes i personally
consider them hikes because i'm not
outside like she is but uh either way
like there's hiking there's plenty
people that want to hit those trails and
you know i don't blame them you just
want to be outside so hiking guys
another outdoor activity
if there were other like big trends that
i could say no target this target this
trust me i would tell you but when i was
going through the research tools uh all
i'm seeing are like father's day
juneteenth
things that are a little bit more in the
past you know the pride shirts are still
selling but
we looked at google trends data and we
know that the best time to be selling
those was the first week of june so i'm
trying to help you with just getting
some kind of evergreen sales that are
still trending right now in these summer
months so i think hiking by the way
chock full of sub-niche potential you
can even see like utah arizona colorado
those states specifically have really
low bsrs on their shirts definitely you
can scale out some of these shirts as
well by just switching up the state name
like uc colorado and arizona on the same
graphic so smart there why not get two
for one
and here we go from pretty much pro plus
i really like this shirt so i just
wanted to share the design says i'd hike
that and a pretty nice like
monotone greenish design but i thought i
just wanted to highlight this because i
think it's also a great t-shirt in the
sense that it's like i'd hit that i'd
hike that so well done all right let's
close out with seller trends these are
shirts that saw a significant jump in
bsr recently we got a lot of father's
day shirts we even have the i'm not old
on classic shirt which is always one of
the best sellers and it even saw a
massive spike for father's day and found
its way into the seller trends
looking ahead if you want to sell shirts
in really random niches related to
specific dates we have july 19th
national daiquiri day july 20th national
hot dog day july 20th is also moon day
july 21st national junk food day july
22nd hammock day
all right bonus shirt and this one i
just thought was funny it says sloth
hiking team i also love how they did the
little stitch style graphic on the
circle
uh they have the curved text great color
scheme and it says sloth hiking team
relax we get there when we get there so
we know people
love the hiking shirts in the summer we
already talked about them uh the sloth
niche also generates a lot of interest
from sloth lovers there's somebody who
actually messages me on facebook every
time they upload new design
every one of their designs is sloth
themed so i can't help but wonder if
this if this shirt is belonging to them
uh but yeah so i thought this shirt was
funny and a good bonus shirt
all right deleted designs brought to you
by merch ninja so we have a lot of uh
what do we got we got
the friends logo people got to stop
infringing on that we got some
infringing on disney uh weird earth day
every day i don't know why that shirt
got removed i don't know if that was the
best selling one or if it was like a
clone
um we had some other ones john beer
making fun of the john deere
uh call of duty parenting ops so yeah
guys you do not want to infringe on
these big brands got one that's ripping
off the bush light logo
uh yeah so a lot of you know captain
