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The video challenges the idea of using outdated methods to make money on YouTube, comparing it to using a shovel to find treasure when faster, more efficient tools are available.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.
