Loved the way u compared the top sellers & poor designs together while giving us tips on how to make those poor designs look better. Wish I could see more of these kinda vids in future.
Great video! Thanks! Do you ever rate brands? I sell tees and more on Amazon in the travel niche. I've just begun a few weeks ago and have advertised heavily. I think my designs are really good but I've only made one sale.
I don't on my channel.... it's really subjective after a certain point. I can tell you if it's a good looking design but I can't really predict if it will sell.
Another great video, Juna! I love this format, too: A quick overview of a bunch of designs, comparing the best against the rest. I took a screenshot of your final slide, and I'll definitely refer back to it again. Thank you!
Thank you!!! I must thank to RUclips that make me see your channel and thanks to you for helping people a lot about the design (even though I am not selling T-shirts but books).
Great video!! Thank you! I've been looking for something like this to help me create better designs! It's nice to see you break it down, the reasons why, and how to make it all work better together! Thank you!! Love your videos!
Saw the designs on your site. Just curious what software you are using to create those illustrations? Like the kawaii art? Appreciate your response. Thanks.
thanks for the up to date "intelligence" on what is current in the t shirt market. I saw the reasoning behind your opinions and will take it on board. Some were obvious; others it was good to hear your judgements. I must say - personally I actually liked the last tee with the cat and the meow-meow. I reckon with some color in the cat and wording - maybe retro style / colors it would get some interest. So, what do you reckon Juna? Am I way off the mark?
The look of the t-shirt isn't everything. I like the way it looked too but I would never wear it..... but I'm just guessing. The market will decide. Put your designs out there and test it out. You never know.
I tried to submit a Star Trek parody design to Redbubble during the cold winter here in southern Australia: 'I GO BOLDLY INTO THE COLD' accompanied by a picture of a flying handbag that kind of resembled a spaceship, but it was pulled by RB. I checked the FAQ's for Star Trek merch, and discovered the TV/movie franchise didn't like any deviation on the most famous quotes from the shows. Was so disappointed as it was a completely original parody.
Congratulations on being selected as one of the Redbubble Artist Ambassadors, and thanks so much for all of your truly helpful videos. QUESTION: Do you know why sometimes most of my designs in my shop will all of a sudden show as STICKERS instead of the DEFAULT PRODUCTS I set for them? I've worked hard on my shop, have over 600 designs, and find that I sell more when I set the defaults to the products that my customers like to buy most (and I make more $ on). It can be frustrating when some of that work is undone by whatever it is that mysteriously happens to change them all to the sticker default. Any insights? Or ideas on where to find more information about this? Again, thanks for all you do for our community and congrats on your success. 😊👏
The black t-shirt with the words 'Aged to Perfection' looks similar to a tutorial on another channel based around retro ads for alcoholic brands. It's prob a pun on aged wine and the older person. Wouldn.t this appeal to someone like that? The fonts look retro, too.
Yes. It's a birthday shirt. The probably with that shirt design is that there a a ton of them out there like that and the chances of that one selling with mismatched fonts is very low
Jona, is it acceptable to ever put the same design on more than one POD platform, or would it need to be changed somewhat or totally? Is there any rights to the design printing once it’s listed on one of those platforms? Or could you put a design on a t-shirt on one platform and a notebook of same design on another platform? Thanks, love your videos, learning lots.
Go to your dashboard... it will default to last 12 month but you can also look at last 7 days or last 30 days.... you can also click on sales history to see the day to day
I just love parody designs when they are made well and you can see the star wars design required skills to make it. Unfortunately they are always a risk and for majority of people I wouldn't suggest trying them especially in Amazon. It saddens me since there's a lot of cool ideas you can do with parodies without making it an obvious infrigiment. Have you done any parodies with success?
Hah. For the jack-o-lantern, you could do a blueprint jack-o-lantern with all these schematics and measurements and technical notes. Taht would be hilarious. 🙂
I have to say that the shirts you talk about in the vintage clip, I don't think the first one isn't that great because everybody can't read the text and the design looks thrown together compared to the second one that you can read and understand more. And the first shirt in the COOL category looks too plain compared to the second one. But that's my opinion on them.

Thank you so much 🙂 All see what I can do... I think it's helpful too
Best advice ever: keep learning!
2:50 notice that even if it's Taylor Swift, it's gonna be copyrighted and therefore you are not allowed to sell it...
Well the point I was trying to make was that no one cares about nice artwork if there is no connection or reason to buy it

I'll try it again with other top designs
Thank you!!! I must thank to RUclips that make me see your channel and thanks to you for helping people a lot about the design (even though I am not selling T-shirts but books).
You are very welcome
Great video!! Thank you! I've been looking for something like this to help me create better designs! It's nice to see you break it down, the reasons why, and how to make it all work better together! Thank you!! Love your videos!
Glad I could help!
Hi Juna, thank you so much for the 8 tips to help newbies like me get sales. I can't wait to see more of such videos.
You're so welcome!
Juna you consistently make great videos to help us improve our design skills. Thank you
You are so welcome!
Thanks Juan, this is a great informative video. When you do these it always helps me with design ideas.
Great to hear!
Saw the designs on your site. Just curious what software you are using to create those illustrations? Like the kawaii art? Appreciate your response. Thanks.
I'm using Affinity Designer
I think this should be a series, Juna. I really enjoyed this type of video. 😊
Yay, thank you! I'll see what else I can do

Excellent suggestions and explanations, thanks for making this video
Glad it was helpful!
I have uploaded my designs several months ago, but when I search, I can not see my listing. How to fix it?
I really wish I knew... It happens to me too.... very frustrating
Thank you so much for your great advice ❤
You are so welcome!
Wow, that video really help me a lot, thank you Juna!
Glad it was helpful!

Yup... you never know, every IP has different rules
Thanks for your kind sharing
My pleasure
Very helpful. Thanks Juna!

At the end of adding a design there is a dropdown where you can select the product you want to show. That should work

Yes. Your designs are yours... put them on as many POD sites and as many products you want
@@DetourShirts great thanks!
11:20 I have seen many people wear such t-shirts especially in bars
Thanks for sharing
where can you see what's selling?
Go to your dashboard... it will default to last 12 month but you can also look at last 7 days or last 30 days.... you can also click on sales history to see the day to day
Dam Juna those cassette tapes make me feel old lol.
Hahahaha... me too
Solidarity with the right side, my friend, the human side 🇵🇸
Thanks
All really great tips!
Glad it was helpful!
How can you know the top seller designs?
There's a dropdown on RedBubble that sorts the searches by Top Sellers

Yes!! Another great idea
What margin do you use with Redbubble?
I just make sure to get at least $5 per sale.... I think I have it at 30% for shirts
Is the Cat Wars T-shirt legal if you use a pun or satire of the IP? Is that covered under "Fair Use"?
It is kind of riding the line in my opinion but it is a parody
Nice Tips!
Thanks!
Yeah I made my own t shirt design on photos but it turns out it didn’t sell
Photo are tough
Really helpful video! 😊

Thanks for being first.... you get the trophy today 🏆
