Step 1: Finding Best-Selling Niches with E-Rank
The first step in our journey is to identify a best-selling niche on Etsy. For this tutorial, we’ll use the example of “psychedelic shirts.” We start by going to Etsy and searching for “psychedelic shirt,” which returns a massive 38,000 results. To narrow down the niche, we use a tool called E-Rank. By entering “psychedelic shirt” into the keyword tool, we get relevant results and keyword ideas.
We sort the results by Etsy competition to find specific sub-niches with high potential. After some exploration, we find “shroom shirt” and “mushroom sweater” as promising sub-niches with substantial monthly Google searches.
Step 2: Creating the Design with Kittle
Next, we move on to Kittle, where we will create a design for the chosen sub-niche. Kittle offers a variety of templates, and we opt for the “T-shirt preset” for both sweaters and hoodies. In the “Elements” panel, we search for “mushroom” and select a botanical-style vintage mushroom design.
We arrange the mushrooms in a pleasing layout and add a text element with a groovy font that reads “Time to Grow.” The dark Heather color for the background gives the design an appealing look. With the mock-ups feature, we preview the design on different products, finalizing the creation.
Step 3: Preparing the Product with Printify
Now that we have our design, we move to Printify to prepare the product for sale. We choose the unisex heavy blend crew neck sweater from Gildan and select the most suitable print provider. After uploading the design, we pick the “dark Heather” color for the sweater. The mock-up preview gives us a better idea of the final product.
Step 4: Creating a Listing on Etsy
With our product ready, we proceed to create a listing on Etsy. We utilize the insights from E-Rank to optimize the title and description with relevant keywords, sub-niches, and tags. The title is crafted as a collection of sentences with targeted keywords, making it search-friendly.
We add high-quality photos of the sweater, including flat lays and model shots. It’s essential to add information about the material, care instructions, and your shipping and return policy. We also specify Printify as the production partner and provide additional details for potential customers.
Step 5: Sample Order and Review
Before publishing the listing, we place a sample order with Printify to inspect the product’s quality in person. Once we receive the sweater proof, we take high-resolution images for use in our Etsy mock-ups.
Step 6: Publishing and Marketing
With the images and product details finalized, we publish the listing on Etsy. If desired, we can set up Etsy ads for marketing purposes. Don’t forget to optimize the listing with the right categories and tags to increase its visibility.
Conclusion
Congratulations! You’ve now learned how to find best-selling niches on Etsy, create stunning print-on-demand designs using Kittle, and prepare products with Printify. Armed with this knowledge, you can start your Etsy business journey with confidence.
