PUZZLES & BOARD GAMES

  Browzer   People of all ages have been enjoying jigsaw puzzles and board games for a long time. In an interesting fact, the number of searches for jigsaw puzzles around the world has grown by 94% in the past year. In April 2020, CNBC reported that Ravensburger's sales of jigsaw puzzles had gone up by 370 percent in the last two years.    Given how much time people spend inside, it's not surprising that they want to find new ways to pass the time.    Forbes said in April 2020 that sales of board games, puzzles, and arts and crafts had gone up by a huge amount. One store said that its sales in the last week of March 2020 went up by 4,000%.    Google Trends says that there are 468,000 monthly searches for board games around the world, and that number goes up every December.

In the end, it's a high-end green tea that has been ground into a fine powder. Because you eat the whole leaf instead of just letting it steep in hot water, the tea has a much higher concentration of good things. Like green tea, this product can be added to many other things as a flavor, an infusion, or an extract, just like green tea.    Matcha is something that business owners should look into if they want to sell high-quality tea, tea-flavored products, or products that are made with tea.

Google Trends shows that the number of searches for matcha keeps going up, so this is a good niche to get into because there are a lot of people looking for it.   

NOOTROPICS (“SMART DRUGS”)

  Nootropics Depot Source: Nootropics Nootropics, which are sometimes called "smart drugs" because they help people focus better, think more clearly, and work harder, have become more popular over the past few years. Tim Ferris and other well-known people in the e-commerce industry introduced a lot of people to this relatively new term in 2015, and it seems like this has only added fuel to the fire since then.    One thing to keep in mind is that the market for nootropics is mostly unregulated right now, so if you're thinking about selling them, you should think carefully about it and do your own research before selling them to the public.   

MACRONUTRIENTS & WORKOUT ENHANCING POWDERS

    People have heard of macronutrients and powders that help with workouts before. However, their popularity is on the rise because of how they are sold to consumers. As people's interests quickly shift toward their health, diet, and well-being, more and more consumers are thinking about how much of each macronutrient they take in.    The only thing new about macronutrients is that people are now interested in them. This has started making brands try to connect with these consumers by putting the macronutrients in their food products at the center of their marketing campaigns.    Protein powder is a well-known supplement for workouts that helps muscles recover after a workout. However, it's not a new thing. It has been a popular trend for a long time, but the market for powders that help you work out has started to move into a new area: pre-workout powders. Pre-workout powders, which most people just call "pre-workout," have started to make a name for themselves on the market.    Protein powders are usually taken after a workout to help repair muscles. Pre-workouts, on the other hand, are meant to be taken before a workout to give people a boost of energy and help them get the most out of their workouts. This clever way to sell a simple product to the end-user is a great example of how to think outside the box.    Are you already in the fitness business? Shift your focus and start selling pre-workout supplements while this trend is on the rise. Trying to sell a food or drink product? Show how its macros work. Not in the business of diet, health, or fitness yet? Get on it as soon as you can, because more and more people are buying into it every year because of how many people are promoting it through influencer marketing, ads, and social media networks.   

BALAYAGE PRODUCTS

  L'Oreal Source: L'Oreal   There are always a lot of popular products that are in style in the beauty niche. Balayage is a popular way to color hair that uses highlights to make the hair look like it has natural volume. Even though this is a style that comes and goes in fashion and hair, it seems to be more popular than ever this time around. You can get the look at home or at a salon, which makes the target market a little bit bigger: People, salons, and stockists can all be aimed at for sales.    Hair toners, lighteners, spatulas, color application brushes, after-care products (like shampoos, masks, conditioners, etc.), and more are used to get this look. As long as a lot of social media influencers continue to wear the look, it will continue to spread and sales will stay high. If you want to get into the beauty market, especially the hair care and styling market, you might want to look into the balayage trend and the products that go with it.    The term "balayage current" is searched for 1.7 times per month. If you want to sell the most beauty products, you should jump on niches that are popular quickly.   

BODY WIPES (“DUDE WIPES”)

  DUDE Source: Dude   Men's hygiene is a niche topic that doesn't get as much attention as it should, but it's definitely on the rise right now. In this case, there are already companies that make hygiene wipes for children and women. However, smaller companies have recently realized that there is a huge market for a similar product for men.    The "dude wipes" are made for all kinds of men, from those who like to camp and do other outdoor things to those who live in busy cities and commute a lot. Since body wipes are part of the group of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), which need to be bought often, manufacturers are making "customers for life." That gives a seller the chance to offer subscriptions or automatic re-ordering.  

FAKE EYELASHES

    Fake eyelashes have been around for a long time, but in the past few years, they've gone through a huge change in style and function, making them more beautiful and useful than ever.    In the past few years, brands, makeup artists, and influencers have been making their own collections of false eyelashes. They use different materials, sizes, colors, and even ways to stick them on to make them easier to use and give a better result. There is a lot of room for creativity and new ideas in this niche, and people are willing to try new things.    The product is also one of those that can be sold for more money. Most of the time, a lot of false eyelashes are bought at once. Also, these are disposable items, so the chance of customers coming back is very high. Since ePacket delivery is easy to get and they are very light and cheap to make and ship, these are also great products to dropship. Check out our case study on Esqido, a high-end false eyelash company, to learn more about how to start a business from scratch.   

NICHE-SPECIFIC BRANDED APPAREL & HYPER-LOCAL APPAREL

  Magenest   Companies like Printful make it easier and easier to start your own clothing line. Creating a custom clothing brand is only going to become more popular as they continue to add more e-commerce platforms that they can connect to and as they add more clothing and customization options. But because there are already so many clothing stores, any new business will have to work hard to stand out. Two ways to do this are to have very niche-specific branded clothing or clothing that is made very close to where you live.    Niche-specific apparel is clothing that only appeals to a certain type of consumer. This could be because of the style, the way it works, or the designs on it. IconSpeak makes t-shirts for people who like to travel, which we talked about in our article Nomad Gear: 10 Minimalist Travel Essentials for Digital Nomads. These t-shirts are an example of niche-specific clothing.    Hyper-local clothing is clothing that is made for a very specific group of people in a certain area. For example, as a fun side project, we started a 24-hour t-shirt business and aimed it at a very local audience with creative designs that appealed to subway commuters.    Here are some more examples of clothing brands with a strong local presence: 
  • Detroit vs. Everybody (Detroit) 
  • Drake General Store (Toronto) 
 

ENAMEL PINS

  CDN Shopify   It seems like enamel pins are one of those trends that come back every few years and have been around for a long time. Enamel pins are back in style because you can design and/or personalize your own pins easily and quickly.    These pins are great fashion accessories because they look great on bags, jackets, t-shirts, and so on. Pieces that make a statement can be very small. On the other hand, companies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and people who want to show what they stand for also use enamel pins. A small thing like this has a lot of social and cultural meaning because it can be a sign or a way to send a message.    If you want to sell a lot of these, you might want to make a strong marketing campaign and maybe target fandoms, lifestyle groups, and people who like pop culture. Check out this article to learn more about how to start your own business selling enamel pins.   

FITNESS LEGGINGS

    Fitness leggings are another great item for dropshippers to sell. These have been around for a few years, and from what I can see, they don't look like they're going anywhere soon. This product fits into multiple niches that are popular right now, which makes it a useful item for anyone who wants to build a fashion, fitness, or athleisure brand.    Like beanie hats, fitness leggings are very light, come in many different styles, fabrics, and colors, and are cheap to stock and ship. As a dropshipper, it's easy to stock your store with different styles and options to see what sells best. This gives your customers great options, which makes them happy and keeps them coming back to your store.    You can get these products in front of your target audience through your online shop by using Facebook ads, search ads, and reading about how other brands with similar products did it.   

NOVELTY SOCKS

    Socks. You did read that correctly. Socks are another product that seems to be popular almost all the time. In fact, novelty socks have been popular for a few years now, especially around the holidays.    They are the perfect product because they are comfortable, can be worn by anyone of any age, gender, or style, and are easy to match with other clothes. Keep in mind, though, that while novelty socks are a great niche, regular socks have a lot more competition and the market is already full of them. Since the market is still growing, novelty socks are a great alternative to more traditional ones.   

ATHLEISURE

  The Sun   Athleisure is activewear that isn't just worn for sports. Instead, it's worn as a casual look. This style of clothing focuses on comfort, durability, and style, which is why it has become popular in recent years.    As a seller, this gives you a lot of options, like selling leggings, sweatpants, t-shirts, shoes, socks, headbands, sports bras, and so on.    Athleisure is great because, unlike most fashion trends, it's not going anywhere. This niche is also a great way to get into other markets, like health and holistic living or sports and fitness.    With social media sites like Instagram and Pinterest making athleisure even more popular and influencers promoting athleisure products, the trend is likely to stick around for a while.   

BACKPACKS

    Google Trends shows that backpacks are becoming more and more popular. Part of this is because startups on crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter are trying to make the perfect urban backpack. But it's also cool to wear a backpack to work again, and you can find a lot of different types and styles in stores.    The new style of anti-theft backpacks that protect city commuters' belongings or the tracking systems and battery charging capabilities of high-tech urban packs have ushered in a new era for a product that used to be seen as a back-to-school special. Even though this product sells best when kids go back to school in August and September, that doesn't mean it won't sell at other times of the year, especially to adults.    As a business owner, you could stock and sell different kinds of backpacks for different age groups, activities, and styles, like those for students, travelers, IT specialists, city commuters, and so on. This trend is a great way to see where one product can take you in different ways.   

MATTRESSES

  CNet   Even though a mattress might seem like it doesn't belong on a list of popular items, it does. Not only is there almost always a need for mattresses, but as technology has changed, so have things like mattresses that are used every day.    Some of the new breeds of high-tech mattresses include ones that track your sleep and sleep health, ones that have auto-temperature settings that cool down in the summer and heat up in the winter, ones that are connected to automatic coffee makers, and ones that have a vibrating alarm system built-in.    Even the good things about mattresses vary Some help with orthopedic healing, while others help with sleep problems. There are many options, and technology is always getting better. There are even mattresses that come in a box, making them easy to move from one place to another. These mattresses are small enough to fit in elevators or be carried upstairs. It would be a good idea to jump on this popular product while there is still room in the market for you to make your own niche.   

FAIRY LIGHTS

    Another product that has become very popular because of sites like Instagram and Pinterest is fairy lights. People have used these lights to decorate their homes, make restaurants feel cozier, decorate for the holidays, and more.    There are even social media pages devoted to showing people how to use and style fairy lights to their liking. People often buy these lights in groups, and they can also be sold with other home decor items.  

AUTO-FOLLOW DRONES & UNDERWATER DRONES

    Drones are not only popular but there are also new kinds of drones coming out. Drones have become a more reasonable purchase for consumers in the past few years, so their popularity has grown quickly. However, as time has gone on, drone technology has continued to improve, and so has the way people use them in their everyday lives.    This year, drones will be one of the most popular products. However, technology will continue to improve, which will make it easier for people to use drones in different parts of their lives. First, auto-follow drones are becoming popular because their advanced technology lets people control them without using their hands.    Underwater drones are also becoming more popular. These help people find fish and map out the underwater world.    Google Trends shows that the number of searches for "underwater drone" has stayed the same since they became more popular, which shows that this product is here to stay. About 17,000 people a month look for the term "underwater drone" in search engines.   

ELECTRONICS ACCESSORIES

  Hips Hearst Apps   For many businesses, this is the best time to find the right product to sell online. As people use more and more tech products in their daily lives, there is more interest in adding accessories to make them look better, work better, and be more stylish.    These accessories can add style to the device itself, whether it's a phone, computer, camera, drone, etc., or they can be more stylish versions of things you usually use with a device, like docking stations, power banks, cords, chargers, etc. Some popular accessories are the iRing and PopSockets, which add more features to smartphones. AirPod Skins add style and protection to Apple AirPods, and drone sweaters and AirPod floss stickers are also popular. There are a lot of things you can sell in your e-commerce business today from the smartphone accessories market.    Use the demand for stylish, sleek, streamlined, and useful accessories to your advantage and make a new product that makes a device or accessory better. The great thing about this method is that it doesn't have to be hard. Spend some time thinking about the things you use every day and what small addition would make them work or look better. You don't have to start from scratch; just think of useful, useful, funny, or customizable additions that make devices better.   

SMART HOME APPLIANCES

  The Cabinet Doctors   Along the same lines, smart accessories are making their way into other parts of how people shop. Smart appliances like the Google Home, Amazon Echo, and even smart toothbrushes and cutting boards are designed to make people's daily lives easier, and they're becoming more popular.    Everything seems to be on the table, and we don't know what will happen in the future. Smart appliances are slowly becoming a part of the daily life of the average consumer, and we expect them to become even more common as they get better and people start to see the real benefits of using them.    Pay attention to the things you do every day. Where do you see smarter innovations being made in your home, even if they seem small? Smart appliances are the way of the future, and their popularity will only grow as the year goes on.   

3D PRINTING 

  PCMAG   Last but not least, 3D printing is on its way to becoming a regular part of business and consumer life. For a long time, it seemed like a futuristic experiment that regular people like you and me could only dream of. However, the time has come when you can own a 3D printer.   Technology and development have finally gotten to a point where it's possible for some people to buy it. It's not yet worth buying for most people, but we expect it to grow by leaps and bounds over the next couple of years. Keep an eye on how it develops and start planning now so you can take advantage of it when it becomes a part of people's lives.    Most likely, you don't know enough about technology or have the resources to make your own 3D printer. Instead, leave that to the experts and focus on the extras. Once it's available to a large number of people, they'll want add-ons that make their lives even easier.  

SMART LIGHTING

  The Gadget Flow   When we were kids, we probably all wished we didn't have to get up from the couch or bed to turn the lights on or off. We wished we could just clap and it would be done. There are smart lights that turn on when you clap, and there are also a lot of other smart lighting systems and smart lights. Eco-friendly lighting, automatic timers for lights, mood settings, color control, remote access to lighting systems in places with wifi, lighting that turns on when it senses motion, and more are just a few of the options. There are so many choices!    As the number of options in the industry grows by the second, so does the number of people who use it. Customers have become more concerned about the environment, which has made it important for smart lighting companies to get creative with their products.    Listen to what the clients say: Make a product they want that isn't already on the market or a tweaked version of one that is. Smart lighting is the future of home lighting, and it's picking up speed right now, so it would be a good idea to get into the market as soon as you can.   

JOURNALING

  CDN Shopify   Again, this is not a new idea by any means. What matters is how it gets to the end consumer. Journaling is becoming more popular because people want to take care of their mental and emotional health and are looking for ways to relax, think, practice mindfulness, or be grateful.    In recent years, people have bought a lot of The Five Minute Journal, The Bullet Journal, The Happiness Planner, The Anxiety Journal, The Passion Planner, and the SELF Journal. Consumers will tell you that these simple tools help them in so many ways that make their lives better as a whole.    Do you have a great idea for a journal or a way to keep a journal that you want to tell everyone about? Start working on your idea and making it better so you can turn it into a business. It's too soon to tell if this will be a long-term trend or just a passing fad, but this market has room to grow.   

FIDGET TOYS

  Amazon   Every year, there is one product that becomes a big deal and stays that way for a while. Even though the fidget spinner went viral years ago, the last year was all about toys that you could fidget with. No matter what kind of toy it was—a spinner, a fidget cube, or a squishy toy that you can attach to your phone or laptop—it was selling like crazy.    The fidget spinner, on the other hand, became a cult item with its own social media challenges. Because there was such a high demand for these toys, the companies that made the ball bearings used in them were sometimes put under pressure to make more than they could.    Even though these toys have been around for more than 25 years and were originally made for people with anxiety and/or autism, they are now one of the most popular office toys. Now is a good time for both adults and kids to stock up on these things. Is there a different group of people you could sell fidget toys to, or another kind of fidget toy you could make?   

PLUSH TOYS

    Plush toys are a great addition to your store if you sell things for kids as part of a home or lifestyle business. These kinds of toys have always been popular, but there's always a new kind of plush toy that everyone talks about and that every parent and child needs to have.    Do some research on the most popular plush toys right now and think about how you could make a plush toy that kids can't get enough of or that has special features or extra benefits that parents might like.   

Conclusion

  We hope that this post gives you an idea of what will happen to e-commerce businesses this year as old trends die out and new ones take their place. Think about these popular products and niche ideas, and either add some of them to your current business or use them as a jumping-off point for something new that customers will love.
