How to Make Your Own Merch For YouTube: A Complete Guide for Creators

Being a YouTube creator can be a rewarding career, but turning it into one can be tricky. Strict platform requirements and increasing fees mean YouTubers often need other income streams to expand their business. Selling merch is a fantastic way to increase your revenue and make your YouTuber dreams come true (since views alone often won’t cut it). Why is that? Well, this YouTube Money Calculator says you’d need 36,562 views/day with an average engagement rate of 50% to make $2000 a month. That’s a lot of views! Luckily, you can make that amount and more without as many channel views just by selling custom merch.  In this step-by-step guide, you’ll learn how to make your own merch for YouTube and boost your business. We also share tips for creating merch hassle-free, without needing to invest large sums of money upfront. Let’s take a closer look at the essential steps for designing and launching your own merch successfully!
