Introduction: Modernizing Your YouTube Strategy

The video challenges the idea of using outdated methods to make money on YouTube, comparing it to using a shovel to find treasure when faster, more efficient tools are available. The author stresses the importance of adapting to modern strategies to maximize earnings with less effort, enabling a more passive income stream. He will condense knowledge from his previous videos into actionable steps to help viewers make their YouTube channels work for them.

Choosing a High CPM Niche

The first step to upgrading your YouTube strategy is to create a new channel in a niche that attracts high advertising revenue. Niches like technology and travel are highlighted because companies in these sectors, such as Apple and Expedia, are willing to spend significant amounts on advertising. Focusing on high CPM (cost per thousand views) niches allows you to potentially earn more money with fewer views, making the process more efficient. A list of high CPM niches is provided to guide viewers in selecting a profitable area.

Creating Evergreen and Faceless Content

To minimize ongoing effort, the video recommends creating evergreen content that remains relevant over time, rather than focusing on trending topics that quickly lose popularity. Additionally, the author suggests creating faceless content, which eliminates the need to constantly film new videos. Examples of successful faceless channels like Bright Side, TechZone, and Body Hub are provided. The author also suggests using AI tools like play.ht for realistic voiceovers, and Tube Magic for script writing.

Outsourcing Content Creation

To further automate the channel, the video advises reinvesting earnings into outsourcing content creation tasks on platforms like Fiverr. The author recommends testing multiple freelancers for tasks like voiceovers, script writing, and video editing to find the best fit for your needs. Once a reliable freelancer is found, they can be hired long-term to handle these tasks. Fiverr link provided in the description.

Batching and Scheduling Content

The video suggests batching content creation on a weekly or monthly basis to maximize efficiency. This involves providing your chosen freelancer with a batch of video ideas and paying them to create multiple videos at once. Once the videos are completed, they can be downloaded, uploaded to YouTube, and scheduled for release using YouTube's built-in scheduling tool. Tools like Trello can be used to track this process.

Multiplying Earnings with Affiliate Marketing and Digital Products

To multiply earnings, the video recommends promoting affiliate products from platforms like DigiStore24 or ClickBank by including affiliate links in video descriptions. Creating and selling digital products, such as courses or ebooks, on platforms like Gumroad is also suggested. Digital products are particularly advantageous due to the absence of fulfillment costs, leading to higher profit margins.

Scaling with Multiple Channels

Once a channel is up and running and largely automated, the video advises starting additional channels to further scale your YouTube income. The author shares his personal experience of running over 12 channels, generating millions of subscribers and dollars. The video concludes by promoting a free video on creating faceless YouTube channels and inviting viewers to join the course community for further support.

0:00 Take a look at the analytics of these three channels on the screen right now. I'm going to give you two seconds to guess which one made the most amount of money. If you guessed anything besides this one right here, then you're wrong. Are you surprised about that? If you want to make more money from your YouTube channel as soon as possible, delete your channel. And obviously, now I'm not saying to go into your settings and destroy everything that you've worked so hard for. What I mean is that you're working on an outdated formula on today's modern-day YouTube which makes you do too much unnecessary work when there's ways for you to make a lot of money from your views so you can be doing things like ziplining in Costa Rica while your YouTube channel continues to work for you. Now, if you're trying to make money on YouTube today, look at it like this. Imagine

0:45 you're using a shovel to look for a treasure chest underground. And yes, a shovel works, and it used to be the norm for doing that. But nowadays, people use other methods that are much faster and a lot lazier as well. And so, by you still working on your YouTube channel with using a shovel, so to speak, you're just refusing to do the faster and lazier way. However, lucky for you, I've made countless videos here on my YouTube channel telling people how to make more money on YouTube with the modern methods in the laziest ways possible. And every single day, I have people reaching out to me with the success they've had with these methods. And in this video, I'm going to do something slightly different. I'm literally going to spoon feed you these methods and take all of that knowledge from all these videos and condense it down into exactly what you need to know. This is how you can get your YouTube channel to work for you,

1:31 even if you're not paying attention to it. So, using that analogy of a shovel that we talked about earlier, with each instruction that I'm going to give you within this video, we're going to upgrade the tool that we're using to look for that treasure. So, the first thing you're going to want to do immediately if you're using these outdated methods of making money and growing on YouTube is to delete your channel. And I'm only saying it in that way to stress a point. What I mean is to create a new YouTube channel in a new niche or category. See, most people are working on YouTube channels doing the same thing over and over again with nothing working. And they're in a niche with honestly not that much potential or way too much saturation. And the best way to explain how to pick an amazing niche for YouTube is to pick one that advertisers are willing to spend a lot of money on. And the top advertisers on YouTube are companies like Apple or

2:18 Expedia. And what sectors are these companies in? Technology and travel. So, what does that mean for you? It means if you go into one of these niches, you're likely going to make a lot of more money per thousand views when you get monetized and put ads on your videos. And this allows you to be lazier because you can get less views and potentially make a lot more money. And these are what are considered to be high CPM niches. CPM simply means cost per million or how much money you make per thousand views. And here's a list of some of the biggest highest CPM niches on YouTube right now. So, if you were just uploading random videos on YouTube on your channel, or they just weren't good videos, or you're doing a niche you're not even interested in it, and a niche that doesn't have a ton of potential, just by choosing that new niche and creating a new channel, you've already done so big of a difference when

3:04 it comes to approaching YouTube. But there's still a lot more steps to do better and better. And we're going to, so to speak, upgrade our tool to the next tool, which will help us find that YouTube treasure. And now that we picked a good niche, we started a new channel. We're going to want to start posting a different type of content on that channel. So, first and foremost, I recommend modeling what has already worked on YouTube, but everybody already talks about that. You guys know that. Make sure you're modeling videos that have already worked. It's worth repeating. But the ideal goal for your YouTube channel is that you want to make it so once you started and started getting success with this, you don't want to have to constantly film and edit new videos just to keep the channel alive. And we accomplish that in two ways. Number one, we post only evergreen content on our channel, which means we're not focusing on new subjects,

3:49 trending subjects, because when that can get a bunch of views temporarily, it will die out. So, what I want you to be focusing on is evergreen content that can continue to get a lot of views into the future. Something that there's always demand for. Super simple to find evergreen content. simply go to YouTube, find channels within the niche, make sure there's channels within the niche you're thinking about consistently getting a 100,000 views per video on their channel for months or even years. And then the second way we accomplish that is by posting faceless content. You might be saying, "Matt, you're showing your face. Aren't you being a hypocrite since you're recording a video right now for this channel?" This is just one of my channels. I actually run 12 different YouTube channels, and 90% of my channels, I don't ever even show my face. And those channels are a lot easier for me because I don't have to get in front of a camera and record

4:35 videos. Now, you might be saying, "Matt, can faceless channels even work?" Absolutely. A lot of the biggest channels on YouTube are completely faceless. Think of channels like Bright Side, for example, never show their face hundreds of millions of views per month throughout their portfolio of channels. There's also channels like TechOne, Body Hub, just to name a few in a couple different niches. And you can even do this without even using your voice or talking by using high-tech robot voiceovers that sound indistinguishable from a human using tools like play.ht. For example, here's an audio file from play.ht. And tell me honestly if you can tell if this is a human or robot voiceover. Here it is. The best way to make money on YouTube is by running faceless channels. In this video, we are going to go over the 10 best niches. So, you can see how realistic that is. And you can just have one of those voices

5:20 voice over your video or use your own voice and clone it using play.ht so you don't have to record a new voice over over and over again. You can then write scripts using AI tools like Tube Magic for example. But always make sure if you use any of these AI tools or anything that you're actually giving value with your content and that the content is actually good and value can be either educational or entertainment value. And make sure people get from your video what they wanted to get when they clicked that video. So, now that you've started producing faceless content, you've completely changed the entire system of your channel. Instead of having to constantly be on the hamster wheel of creating new videos over and over again, you can actually hop off the hamster wheel once you start making some money from your channel. You need to reinvested into a website called Fiverr. You can't just hire any of these people

6:06 to create faceless content for you. There's a lot of bad gigs out there. But what you do is you hire three people as a test to do the job that you hate the most. Whether it be voiceovers, writing scripts, editing the video, editing is typically the first that most people do, but the first thing that I outsourced was voiceovers. You see which one provided the best service that you're happy with and boom, you hire that person long term. And Fiverr will be linked down in the description for you. And now, the best system that I recommend to make this process as lazy as possible is to batch your content on either a weekly or if you want to be even lazier with it, a monthly basis. What that means is that once you find someone who produces good content that you're happy with, you work out a deal with them where you pay them for, let's say you're uploading three videos a week on your channel, you pay them in a batch of three videos for a week. And then you

6:51 only have to work once a week on that channel, giving them some new video ideas, downloading the videos that they finish, and then scheduling the videos for the week. Take this to the next level, which I actually do on some of my channels. You can do this on a monthly basis. So, imagine a scenario with your channel, which is 100% possible, by the way, where you give a month worth of video ideas. Say it's 12 videos for your channel that you're posting three times a week on. You get your finished videos back in a Google Drive folder, download all the videos, upload them to YouTube, and then YouTube has a built-inuler tool where you can schedule these videos to go out on a regular basis, and you can even see the best times to post on your YouTube channel within your analytics. That would literally only be one or two days per month doing this. And you can use a tool called Trello to track this entire process. And as these videos are uploading on autopilot for you once

7:36 you've scheduled them, you can do literally anything else with your life. And you have the potential of making passive income with YouTube rather than active income where you have to keep doing the work over and over. Now, I'm going to tell you the crucial step for leveling up your YouTube game. And this is the most important step in my opinion because you can multiply your earnings. But I first want to tell you if you found any of this information useful. I do have a course called Tube Mastery which you can check out link in the description which goes over 100 step-by-step lessons exactly how to do this checklist, templates, literally everything you need to succeed if you just want to shortcut this process as much as possible. But if you can't afford the course, I want to help you with videos like this to get to the point where you can afford it and then that can even help you get to the next level. And now the way to multiply your earnings with YouTube, promote an affiliate product from your channel. So if you're in one of those good niches, chances are there's a decent affiliate

8:22 product on a place like Diddy Store 24 or ClickBank. Sign up to promote that product. put the link in the description of all your YouTube videos and boom, you will multiply your earnings from that. Not to mention, you could even make your own course because a course is literally just a collection of videos or even a digital product hosted on somewhere like Gumroad, sell like an ebook or something like that and multiply your earnings that way. And the reason digital products and affiliate marketing, digital products specifically, is so fantastic is because they're digital. There's no fulfillment cost every single time somebody buys, which means more profit for you. And then after this, once you've got a channel up and running, it's automated to a huge degree. Then what you can do is go out there and start another channel. That was a huge pivotal moment in my YouTube journey when I was running two channels and then just repeat that process over and over. Now I have over 12 channels.

9:07 I've gotten millions of subscribers between them, made millions of dollars from them. And for everybody who wants to learn how to do faceless YouTube channels the right way, check out this video next to me right here. It's basically a free version of my course.
