Lodestone What do you do to sell T-shirts on much.
Well to do that you need to think about two things.
Two things to think about the Naish for the audience.
So if you're creating a teacher Goethe you've got to think about people who play golf in America and
what sort of people they are.
And then you go to design the show.
So you've got to create a show with something written on it probably.
And the graphic maybe and it's got to be in a design that will appeal to that niche audience or appeal
to somebody who's giving the shirt as a gift to that niche audience.
I think a lot of much it's on Amazon I've bought as gifts.
I think it's very important to remember that you're selling T-shirts in America if you're selling iPhone
covers or batteries or anything in the kitchen or the home of the garden.
You know you might think that people around the world are the same they want the same thing everyone
wants smartphones but T-shirts are completely different.
They are very nice.
You have to think about specific groups of society and you have to think about American culture.
And I'm not American and I have spent months getting my head around this.
So you really need to think about the sort of people in America who they are and what they want.
And another thing you need to think about as I mentioned gifts.
I believe that women in America make more than 50 percent of the purchasing decisions.
So you need to think more about women than men.
And if you are designing T-shirts for men you need to think about the women who might buy a T-shirt
for a man as a present as well as just designing T-shirts that you think are great for nations that
you think have a market in America.
So there are three main areas for teacher design ideas.
So the first is tobaco.
So you see what's trending on Twitter on Google Trends something that's in the news at the moment.
And I don't really do any of these.
They only sell for a short amount of time.
The second grouping is the events of Fathers Day Halloween Day Christmas et cetera.
And the third group of ideas is what I concentrate the most on and that is evergreen.
So these are the things that people are passionate about.
And this is the easiest way of getting ideas I think because they sell all the year around.
It's Evergrey.
So search for professions hobbies or inspirational messages.
What are people passionate passionate about their families their brothers and sons that doses their
husbands their wives.
This is the sort of area we were thinking about.
I want to show you some examples of all three of these.
But before I do I'm going to tell you what designs sell well and they are simple and colorful and high
contrast designs silhouettes and simple imagery always works.
If you have a character like person or an animal on the T-shirt then it's better to have it doing something
than just standing static still and distressed are do very well.
Now what do I mean by de-stressed design.
Well here's an example.
Very bright very easy to create for one too.
What does it mean.
What is the area code for Pittsburgh.
In the States and this sells would you believe it.
Now what I mean distrust as you can see for one two has an effect on it's kind of grungy effect.
That's what I mean by distressed.
So instead of having the full one to just printed on the shirt very formally it's a specific format.
It's quite American quite a block reform that does quite well.
Could give us an idea of the American University funds and it's also distressed so it looks a bit interesting.
It's a bright color and the Amazon but T-shirt design has correctly put its own dark color T-shirts.
You've got a choice of five and he or she is chosen five of colors.
If you scroll down we'll talk about this more in other videos.
You'll see the Amazon best selling ranke is six hundred thousand AUD and that means they will be selling
one a month.
She doesn't sound great but if you have 500 of those then you'll be doing quite well.
This is something people are passionate about which is evergreen.
So people are passionate about their country.
In America they are very patchy or sick.
They are also very proud of where they come from whether it's a state or in this case the city is another
example of an evergreen design goal.
People are passionate about their hobbies.
Golf is a very popular hobby.
It's also a good idea to neige down.
So this is about disc golf which is different I think from normal golf.
I don't know what the difference is but it's a different nature.
It's nice down even further because it has a wife.
And so this teacher looks like it says I love my wife but it really is saying I love my wife when she
lets me play disc golf.
So it's needed there for that and maybe it's also targeting a woman buying a present for a man who likes
golf.
It's also got funding in the title.
So it could be targeting people it goes on to Amazon and search for funny golf shirts or something like
that then that's something you need to think about the product.
So the two key features here and the product description that we'll talk about those in another video.
Now this would be an example of something you find in Google Trends.
This is a trend T-shirt.
I think what happened is that President Trump tweeted out a word that he didn't know how to spell.
Or maybe it was a mistake.
And that would have been trending on Twitter or something like that and people immediately went crazy
shirts for them.
I don't think this would sell now very well but this example of a shirt that you can put in very quickly
and it will sell reasonably well.
It doesn't sell well at the moment.
3000000 best friend Greg.
So doesn't sell a tool of the mine and as I say it's not a way of finding a teacher it is that I am
using at the moment but maybe this is something you'd be interested in.
So a better idea for tobaco would be the total solar eclipse that happened in August in America in 2017.
Now this was quite a big event as you can imagine but it was an extremely profitable Naish for some
t shirt designers.
Here is something I found on one of the much Amazon Facebook groups and somebody posted their earnings
here for the three or four days leading up to the eclipse in America in August 2017.
Just look at the figures there.
Hundreds of T-shirts sold in one week.
Thousands of dollars made in royalties and you can see how you can Naish them further.
He sold the T-shirts with different state names on them.
So Tennessee's total solar eclipse 2017 sold over 350 units in the few days leading up to the eclipse.
Unbelievable.
But we can't go for this event because it's over.
But it's an example of an event and you can focus on if you're interested in it might do well at the
time but afterwards the sales would take off.
Another example of an event but this one happens every year so it may be worth your while spending a
bit of time on this.
And if you do you have to start thinking about the event and designs two months before they happen.
Just so you get the shirts up and selling it on Amazon before the event comes around to the Comfort
event.
In this case Halloween is first of October every year.
It's a big cultural event in America.
Thousands and thousands and millions of dollars spent on Halloween costumes and T-shirts and other items.
And this again is something that's Nisshin down further.
It's maybe targeting math teachers because they have math teacher here in the brand name and math is
in the product Tiflis.
So you can see it's a funny T-shirt again.
What do you get if you divide the pumpkin circumference by its diameter pumpkin pie.
So is another example of an event T-shirt.
However I will say for the first of these videos to make about teacher ideas.
Oh go for the evergreen section of ideas and create shirts and things that people are passionate about
their professions hobby or inspirational messages or gift ideas.
Money will Cubbon Cubbon seeing video.
