into the content let's get straight back over to the content all right so one of the most important
things when it comes to making more sales on redbubble is going to be the products right um
what are the top selling products on the platforms and you want to design for those right you do not
want to design for products that are not like in the top selling category well kind of uh
well i think it's you can make a lot of money with other products because you can even really
think about it some of those products have very little competition so i can see
like a unique product selling over and over and over and over and over again but when the platform
when you first jump in and the platform is telling you like hey these products are crushing it
like it's like it gives it's giving you hints right the algorithm's like telling you like okay
it's uh the masks t-shirts and stickers right these products are crushing it
you'd think you would want to design for those and i and by looking at my account and testing
and stuff like that those are the products that are crushing it they're doing really good with
sales and stuff like that especially with masks right now they're killing it right now
i'm doing like three to four five six max a day selling them and uh some someone they have they
buy those in bulk too so they're they're their profit margins are are way up there with those um
as me personally i'm listing my prices around anywhere between 55 to 60 percent right on the
on the on the profit margins on the back end the percentage um so it just those right there just
crushing it and then with stickers to just give you guys a little inside the stickers i'm doing
i mark them up at 300 percent and they still make consistent sales right i want to show you a little
method right here when you get into the computer i'm going to show you a little uh method where
you can just you can what's selling and what's going on what's trending and stuff like that
what search phrases are trending and stuff so um let's head right over to the computer all right
guys we're at redbubble.com and we are in cognito mode right um as you guys can see uh when you're
looking at this look at look at look you can see this already shop mask shop stickers shop t-shirts
and this right here is pretty much telling you hey these are the top three sellers and look at
from my understanding looks like what posters wall art and stuff like that phone cases home
living you can see it goes on and so forth this is telling you like a story right and you guys want
to understand this it's telling you a story giving you all kinds of good information stuff like that
also too they have fan art we'll kind of get into that a little bit too as well in the video but
what i would do is come over here um you want to learn like i said one of the most important thing
is important things is learning the algorithm right one of the most important things it's like
showing you so when i clicked here it's telling me this is the top artist for the platform right
um obviously they're designing stuff you think about it this way they're designing stuff
that people like so this is why one of the reasons why they're the top artist on this platform so
something to think of keep in mind right now with the popular products right here this is exactly
what i'm talking about masks stickers and t-shirts right so when you're coming in here to do product
research and seeing if your designs look good on these products um what i would do is just hop in
here and click on like teach like let's click on masks for example okay i opened up another
tab but also do you a lot of people overlook this i want to kind of bring this to you guys attention
trending searches right and these are you got to be careful right here you gotta we gotta watch
out for any of the trademarks or anything like that but stuff like that you this is telling you
stuff guys and this is very important okay when you first start going onto the platform even not
even well consistent making consistent cells on the platform right if you run out of niches or
not run out of ideas this method right here going back to here and just using this doing this right
here is going to help you make sales on redbubble right it's going to help you find new niches
and help you with new uh new designs and stuff like that so yeah so we clicked on mass and um
you can see as we click on the mask you can see patterns and it's telling you kind of like what
what are doing well right uh when it comes to math so when you click on patterns
right you're going to see that so mass patterns and that's the next keyword but
you're going to see that look at this right here like patterns are doing really well over here now
the most relevant and then best seller for my understanding of what i've been looking at after i
make a cell seems like the most relevant like the most the most relevant it pops up so this is like
the most recent sold right here and i've been kind of doing research on that it's interesting because
i'm just like most likely it's it recently made a sale um from my understanding and i've kind of
been researching that a little bit when my product of my store personally makes a sell i noticed that
the last product that popped popped up was would be what would be right here this would be like the
most recent cell so um i want to do a little bit more testing on that but that's what it looks like
and that's really cool because it kind of gives you an idea of what's selling
and if it's in your niche or if you can design for it i would definitely do that it kind of gives you
a better idea as you can see like patterns are doing really well like this butterfly pattern
right here it's not really it's like a little little pattern right here but it's seems like it's
been selling right and then like this one here you can see like the different backgrounds too don't
get confused like i'm just gonna only upload to black right people people get tired of designing
for like the people don't get tired of wearing like the just the black mask they want something
with a little bit more color right um and as you can see okay there's some cool ones purple pink
all that all that fun stuff right some fun fun colors right but black is still the best selling
so as you guys can see right here it's it's this right here is telling your story so if you guys
paid like it's simple simple does sell right and you're looking at here like simple stuff
does sell and i just kind of want to bring you guys bring that to your attention right when
you're coming here that the research is one of the most important things and this is how you're going
to make money consistently and seeing what other people what what your competition is doing too
as well so it's very very very very important now also too like if you go back to the very
beginning we can see that down here that we have fan art right fan art merch right now this right
here these right here these brands down here you can design for right and uh fan art it's uh
it's a pretty it's it's getting pretty big i know with merch by amazon they started doing it too
but it's just it's cool to see red bubble doing stuff like this right because you know there's
people out there that love that would want to design for a brand and old dirty bastard
you want to design for a brand and uh you can't because you got to be careful because
of like the trademarks and stuff like that but now it's like they're giving you the opportunity here
you go um redbubble is collaborating with these brands and you can design for them right and um of
course you want to double check and and look over the policies and stuff like that with redbubble
but i'll put that down below in the description so you guys can check that out but this right here is
huge right because say if you don't want to make your own designs some people think they're cheesy
right when you're making your own designs they wanted designs for one make designs for brands
and stuff like that okay you can you obviously can do that over here so this is really cool
i would definitely check this out um it's really really awesome and you can see that people
are actually doing it and uh let's click on this rick and morty you can see people are actually
doing it right and uh seems like uh they're having a lot of fun over here right and it
makes it more exciting for you as an artist or a creator a creator um to come in here and just make
make uh some cool rick and morty designs so this is really awesome right
all right so the next thing i want to talk about is understanding your niche understanding your
niche is probably one of the most important things when it comes to designing because
if you don't understand it how the heck are you going to design for it right you don't have the
creative mindset you don't have you don't understand what's going on because there's
certain designs that you can make for a certain age that don't want without one apply for another
niche right and i know that it's that's big right there and it's just most people don't
understand that but once you understand the niche it makes it so much easier for you to dominate
understand like dominating make more sales everything just all plugs in together and you
understanding that as you go into a new niche or even going into a niche that you understand which
i recommend because it's so much easier for you to dominate that nation that's really important okay
and and we'll break it down a little bit more and kind of go more in detail but it just for
you to understand that when you can dive into it dive into a new niche understanding it is so
important really really important and that's how you win and that's how you get a winning design
that's how you get your design to rank number one and i've done this over and over and over get
a design to rank number one number two and just dominate the whole front page right with uh funny
designs funny sayings right um it just is so so important and i'm gonna just break down some break
down some uh some rules for you guys and kind of give you guys a better understanding and help you
guys with understanding and understanding your needs so what is your niche right what is your
niche it could be the cat niche could be the dog niche it could be uh it could be something like i
don't know like something weird right it can be i don't know armpit niche like you know what i mean
it could be anything like that that is a niche right um and this right here just understanding
the niche you can do so much now with like cats or dogs like what now you can go into more of a
sub niche in that niche right so what kind of dog right what kind of cat okay now and then that's
really big right there then that's how you kind of like dive in deeper and understand your niche
because if you understand your dog right you know what type of dog it is right what kind of
what what type of uh for me for example have an english bulldog my dog he is he's he's very he's
kind of he's kind of active but they're supposed to be lazy right but he has his lazy days right so
kind of keep that in mind like my dog is he's a little weird though because he likes to be active
and have fun and run back and forth and do all this crazy stuff but they're supposed to be lazy
so when i take him out for a walk and stuff like that he goes into the corner of the room and then
he'll lay down sometimes back here and he'll just lay there and he just he'll just relax and be lazy
right and that's what those dogs are known for like being lazy riding skateboards right
they drool sometimes when they're like when they're hot so you gotta give them water give them
a little ice cube or something like that but those dogs are known for that right so understanding
your niche and that's what exactly what i mean is when you understand your niche it makes all the
difference in the world and that's gonna help you make more sales so the next thing is like
what do they like to do in their niche right and i kind of broke that down a little bit like what
in your niche like what do these people like to do or what do these dogs like to do right
but they like to ride skateboards right uh english bulldogs like to ride skateboards they like their
they like to lay down like they do they lay down weird and stuff like that they lay on
their back and and they just like to lay there on the bed and stuff like that they do weird stuff so
you're asking yourself that right you're asking yourself that when you're going into a new niche
or you understand the niche already which i recommend is those type of questions so you can
design for it and see something like what what can you come up with what creative
design you can come up with or saying or whatever it is next thing is uh in this nation so where are
your customers hanging out at right they can be in facebook groups they could be on youtube
uh they can be on instagram they could be on pinterest now this right here is going to help you
a little bit kind of plug in your link for them to make a purchase now i'm not saying to spam it but
you kind of be if you're associated with everyone else you can kind of be like engaging in the
groups like for example like a facebook group and they can just go in there and drop a link like hey
purchase this right here check this out and this is a cool designer here that i made and
then that's literally some of the ways you can start by people purchasing your product and that
can make it so much easier for you right to make money and make sales and uh that's why
i say like if you can relate to the niche you understand it you know what's going on
it makes it so much easier for you to dominate that niche and um as we like doing the research
on the platform right we kind of went over that in the in the in the screen share um but the research
on the platform is so important okay so when it comes to research on redbubble like the feed is
telling you a story right and you just being engaged on there following people giving likes
on uh their designs and stuff like that it just it just it seems like it helps the algorithm a little
bit right and shows you that you're engaging on the platform other people follow you and um it's
it's it's really cool okay so and one of the most important things you just want to understand your
audience right when you're making the design for your audience you have to understand like who's
buying this right so you got to keep that in mind when you're trying to take it to that next level
and make more sales like who's buying this product who's gonna buy this is it a college teen right
is it a is it a parent buying it for a kid like stuff like that so you have to understand your
design when you're designing it's very important um it's it's just it's so important right because
you understanding that it's just making more sales for yourself the biggest question that i've
that i get all the time which one does better text based or illustration that is a big question and
as you're doing research on redbubble um you're gonna see some really awesome illustrations
you're gonna be like dude i can't even compete with that and that's understandable because
when it comes to with those type of there's some really talented artists out there and they're
really really good and if you kind of took what i just said right there you can't compete with that
that's basically saying it's like with the copycats you know there's copycats that
people will just rip your design pixel for pixel and do not do that i do not recommend you do that
when they do that type of stuff um it sucks all right it kind of you get very disappointed you get
very angry so don't do that don't do that on any platform at all do not do that um but when you go
onto a platform you still see an illustration it's like wow okay this person first of all
created less competition for himself because no one can draw what he what he drew right so you
gotta keep that in mind so an illustration okay and a text based design illustration you're gonna
have less competition right off the back right so if it's a custom illustration that no one can draw
right and it's making sales because they do make sales and they make really good sales but if they
can't compete with that right you're creating less competition for yourself okay now this
now there's a couple things here but but i can't draw you know i can't draw i can't do that type of
artwork you can either outsource it or to go over to text-based designs and start making text-based
designs but it's it's really hard or you can like find some licensing and stuff like that
communicate with someone tell them hey can this illustration if i pay you 100 a year can i can i
use this design for commercial use for the year you know what i mean stuff like that
and uh work out deals with artists and stuff like that so you can do that but it of course
is going to take a little bit of work it's not going to happen like overnight you gotta do some
messaging some dm sliding and you gotta understand the whole process behind it but illustrations
are one of my favorite designs because it's just so unique so different and it stands out
and they're really awesome they're beautiful like next level stuff and i and i appreciate it so much
they make me happy by looking at illustrations by looking at someone else's work and seeing
how creative they were and what they were thinking about i i enjoy that type of stuff now
it's not saying text based designs do not do well i know a few people that crush it with text based
designs and i'm talking about only thing they have on their account is text based designs and they're
doing over six seven thousand dollars a month in profit right and that is crazy that is amazing so
you understanding that right there is is big too as well but you have to find the niches with very
little competition now with the illustrations you can kind of go into like the bigger niches and
see what you can do because it's very unique and different and that creates less competition for
yourself now text-based designs you're gonna have to dive into more you're going to have to dive in
more to the research understand the niche right and see if there's you want to go into niches
with very little competition but if there's a you want the demand to be there so they're pretty much
even in their own way but the text based designs may have this tool as well they're easy to copy
so that's not good in a way that's why a lot of people come out to platforms they see a design oh
i'm gonna copy that right there and make their own version of it so you have to understand exactly
what i put together right there is illustrations text base so i see it as more of long term
long term it has its downfalls right there but it can work long term and this right here just
really solid it's it's up to you how you want to do it but yeah um yeah and also
