All right, guys. So, a lot of people on YouTube want to start off by making faceless content, right? They don't want to show their face.
They don't want other people to know that they're making content. They might be a little bit shy on camera. And that is completely reasonable.
That's actually what I did myself when I first started on YouTube. And so, I'm going to show you seven YouTube niches that can make more than your job. Now, the typical job in the US makes about $4 to $5,000 a month.
And so all these niches, all these channels that I'll be showing will be making at least $4 to $5,000 a month, but some of them will be making a lot more than that. So I think a lot of these will surprise you. Some of them are a bit weird.
Some of them are super basic. You're probably surprised people are even making money doing it. And if you're trying to figure out what your niche should be or what type of content you should make or video ideas or anything like that, this video will inspire you and probably give you a lot of really good content ideas.
So if you appreciate me making this type of content, let me know. by gently tapping that like button and let's jump into it right now. All right, so the first channel is going to be the Military Show.
Now, this is a very interesting military news and geopolitics channel and of course this is something that never stops because unfortunately there's always some kind of crazy thing happening somewhere in the world and fear as well as curiosity drive massive amounts of clicks and so this type of content does very well. Now, this channel has about 1. 87 87 million subscribers.
They've uploaded around 1. 7,000 views. And according to Vid IQ, this channel is making 101 to $33,000 a month.
Now, this of course is a faceless channel. It's kind of like an animated channel and they typically go over news that's happening all over the world. And they usually upload several times a day.
Just as an example, I'll pick a random video here. If US and China go to war, who loses hourby hour. It was uploaded about 1 year ago.
It's still getting quite a few views and overall the video got around 5 million views and this video alone made about $27,000. Now I will say here by the way usually the estimates are far lower than the reality. Just as an example I had a 70s something,000 AdSense month on my channel and I check these tools and they thought I made somewhere between 20 and $30,000.
So in many cases it's going to be far higher than whatever the estimates are on these tools. So, there's a good chance that he's actually making far more than a hundred to $300,000 a month. Now, you might be thinking, "Well, Shane, you know, this channel's been around for a while.
They've been uploading for years, so that's why they're making so much money, but actually, there's a lot of smaller channels out there that cover the same types of topics that are making really good money as well. " All right, quick break. This Tuesday at 9:00 p.
m. Eastern time, I'm hosting a free live workshop called Make Money with YouTube in 2025. If you've been struggling to find your YouTube niche or you don't want to spend months or even years building a channel around something that isn't profitable or just doesn't work for you in general, then this workshop is for you.
Because for everyone who shows up live, I'll be giving away the Niche Validator 2. 5. This is the most advanced version of my GPT powered niche validation tool yet, and it's designed to help you instantly test and uncover profitable YouTube niches before you invest your time, money, and effort into the wrong one.
And it's the most refined data-driven version so far, and I'll be giving it away completely free. but only during this live workshop. So, attend the free live workshop by clicking that link down the description and the pin comment below to grab it.
You'll also be able to ask me questions live. So, I look forward to meeting you. Oh, and just a heads up, this will be probably one of the last times I'll be giving away a version of the Niche Validator for free.
So, make sure you click that link and show up to the workshop. Make sure you put in your calendar and I look forward to seeing you there. Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
Now, there's another channel here that actually started off Faceless and then later on after they'd already made it to a sevenf figureure business. So, they're making a million dollars a year or more, they did actually do a face reveal and switch to a personal brand channel. But, they were able to make it to seven figures a year totally anonymously, not showing their face.
And it's pretty cool that they were actually able to switch to a personal brand channel. And that channel is Moo Wiz of Ecom. So you can see here when he first started uploading several years ago, he basically had this sort of avatar, kind of like an animated avatar that represented him and that is how he started making content.
And he basically just dropped really good content about e-commerce, SMMA, and marketing strategies without showing his face. Now, this is a different type of channel than the one that I just showed you because he wasn't relying purely on AdSense. He was selling products and services.
His main service that he sold was actually an agency offer where he basically does the marketing on people's LinkedIns and their Twitters. And that is how he scaled to seven figures a year. And so I know a lot of people are kind of struggling on whether they should do like a personal brand or a faceless channel.
And if you do decide to do a faceless channel, I highly recommend that you actually have an animated avatar that represents you. So the viewer kind of feels like there's another human being on the other side of the screen, even if it is a faceless channel, because that leaves the door open for you later on to do a face reveal. And even if you already have a faceless channel and you don't have an animated avatar, you can introduce an animated avatar.
And then that can be kind of the segue for you to actually convert into a personal brand channel later on. Now, there are some advantages of having a personal brand channel. It's just honestly a lot easier for people to know, like, and trust you.
And so, therefore, they're going to be a lot more likely to actually buy your stuff. So, I've actually worked with several people who have done kind of like face reveals and that kind of thing when they started off. And of course, there's a little bit more to it, but that's basically how you would want to do it.
And Whiz is actually one of the clients that I worked with. With that being said, if you have any questions about picking your niche, coming up with video ideas, uh what type of channel you should make, how you should monetize your channel, anything like that, attend my live training this Tuesday, 9:00 p. m.
Eastern Standard Time by clicking that link in the description and the pin comment below. On this live training, we'll be going over the most important things when it comes to growing and making money from a YouTube channel. I'll also be giving away a secret AI that we've been working on behind the scenes for a very long time that's been trained with thousands of hours of my content, coaching calls, etc.
that will make this entire process way easier. And I will answer literally every question you have completely free on growing and making money on YouTube, even if I have to stay an extra hour, hour and a half, or 2 hours. So, I'll only be doing this presentation one time, and I will only be giving away that particular AI one time as well.
So, make sure you show up. Click that link in the description in the pin comment below and I look forward to seeing you there. All right.
Another channel that I really like is Trip for You. And this is a travel content channel. Now, you might be thinking, Shane, if you're making a travel content channel, you absolutely have to show your face, right?
There's no way you can make travel content without showing your face. Well, actually, you can. This channel proves it.
So, this is basically a stock footage plus AI voice channel that creates virtual tours. anyone can make. And this is basically in the faceless travel guide niche.
And this channel is making thousands of dollars a month. Now, the average video length is about 92 minutes. They upload around four videos per week.
And they basically just show a bunch of different locations around the world. And they talk about some of the funnest things you can do, the best places you can go to eat, etc. And the funny thing is a lot of this can be automated.
You can have AI do most of the work. And of course, you can hire a video editor to do the rest of it. And this one video alone, Unseen China, Hidden Places Even Locals can't believe exist, Travel Video 4K, made about $40,000 and got over 8 million views.
And this is a pretty new channel that has less than $50,000 subscribers. So that was uploaded 5 months ago. It's already made $40,000.
So in the last 5 months, they've made about $8,000 a month on average from a single video. So yeah, you don't necessarily have to travel to the place to make money. You can absolutely make travel content in a faceless manner as well.
With that being said, if you do want to actually travel to places and make money doing that and basically just record your travels, you can make money doing that as well. So, just as an example, Tour from Home TV. This is another faceless channel.
They don't show their face, but they basically just have a camera where they record themselves walking around different places. And according to Vid IQ, they're making about 4 to1,000 a month. and their most viewed video was the new Jurassic World, the experience in Singapore.
Basically, just walking around that experience. They've also done videos where they just walk around on a Royal Caribbean cruise. And these videos are really cool because let's just say you're thinking about booking a Royal Caribbean cruise.
You probably want to see what it's like just walking around because that's about as close as you're going to get to basically seeing what you'd be paying for. So, yeah, a lot of good opportunities there. Next one on the list is Cartelsi.
Cartels. Yeah, that one's a bit of a mouthful, but this channel is making thousands of dollars a month cooking just one thing, which is potatoes. So, this is a faceless channel that makes all kinds of different recipes that are potato related.
No face on camera, no talking, just hands and ingredients. Now, they've uploaded about 102 videos so far, and they make about two videos every week. Last week alone, at the time I'm making this video, they got about 554,000 views on their channel, which means they made about 4.
7 to 12,000 a month. And like I said before, that's usually a very conservative estimate. And their most viewed video got 3.
7 million views in 9 months and made about $18,000. So, this is obviously a faceless channel. And I really love how niche this cooking channel is, right?
They're not cooking like a hundred different types of recipes. They really just focus on potatoes. So, if there's something that you really like cooking, you could potentially make a channel just like this.
Another channel that's absolutely blown up recently, and I honestly think this channel is as close as it gets to 100% AI created is Sleepless Historian. Yes, I believe that this channel is very close to 100% AI created because the truth is there's no such thing as a 100% AI created channel. I do think that there's a little bit of human supervision, but for the most part, this channel is as close to 100% AI created as it gets right now.
And they actually only started about 6 months ago. And the crazy thing is they already have 630,000 subscribers and they're making 10 to $29,000 a month. And basically what they do is they make historical videos that are designed to help you fall asleep.
Just as an example, this video right here, Boring History for Sleep, why you wouldn't last a day in medieval times and more, got about 3. 8 8 million views and made $19,400. And that's money they made in 5 months time.
And the backgrounds they use for their videos are typically AI generated. The voice that narrates is also AI generated. And the scripts are written by AI as well.
So yeah, really good niche. I think the clever thing about this niche is they have very long videos that are designed to help you fall asleep. So they get really good watch time.
People probably forget to turn the video off after they fall asleep, which sends a message to the YouTube algorithm that the video is really good. So, yeah, very clever channel. I'm sure you could come up with other clever ways of helping people go to sleep as well.
All right, next channel is Jamie Social. And this is a very interesting channel that explains psychology through stick figures. And it sounds simple, but it's actually genius.
So, people struggle with social skills and dating and they want quick digestible answers. And Stick Figure Animation makes heavy topics feel light and fun to watch. And this channel is making about $4 to$11,000 a month.
And they started the channel relatively recently as well. And they cover all kinds of different topics from dating, friendships, office politics, and just everyday human behavior. And The Stick Figure makes serious topics feel light and super bingeable.
And they cover universally relatable struggles, awkward convos, overthinking, relationships, all that stuff. and it stands out from typical self-help creators who just talk. Faceless animation equals unique branding and people actually remember it and share it.
And with those 60 videos they posted, they've already passed over a h 100,000 subscribers. Just as an example from one video, how to never get angry or bothered by anyone. It got about 2 million views and made over $10,000.
And that's in just 3 months. So I see a lot of opportunity with these types of channels that do animations in different ways. I'm not telling you to do stick figure animations specifically, but there's a lot of different types of animations that you can do that basically enhance educational content and just make it easier to consume and understand.
What's happening guys? In the editing process of this video and I have an opportunity for a select group of people. So, these are people who are serious about growing their personal brand on YouTube.
So basically, we figured out recently how to grow a personal brand and combine all the upsides of a personal brand with the upsides of automation, right? Using AI, using things like this to basically grow your personal brand 10 times faster, which in the past used to take decades to do. And now you can do it significantly faster.
And you can do this to get a better job. You know, we work with beginners that just want to get a better job with their personal brand. You can do this to make money as a side hustle.
We work with a lot of people like that. We can do this to make more money if you already have a side hustle or a small business. Or if you're already crushing it on YouTube, we can help you crush it 10 times more.
We've worked with people like that as well. I mean, I literally can show clients at each level. People that we've gotten from zero to over 10K, zero to like over 30K, uh from like 1K per month, all the way up to 185K per month, from around 30K per month, all the way up to over 500K per month.
So, literally at every single level, and it works for everyone in every situation. With that being said, we are only working with three to five people and they have to be people who are very serious, right? People who are dedicated to making this work.
So, if you think you're that type of person, go ahead and apply down in the description and the pin comment below and you can be part of our group of 35 that we help. So, see you there. Have a good one.
All right. Channel number seven is plane curious. And this is a super interesting channel that is for aviation connoisseurs, right?
So, this is aviation content and it's for obsessive fans who want to watch everything and know everything about planes religiously. And we're talking airplane crashes, models, history, etc. People can't stop clicking on these topics.
And basically, this is the aviation explainer niche. That's the best way that I can describe it. And it's evergreen and globally appealing.
So, this channel's got about 46,000 subscribers. They posted about 97 videos. And they post about four times a week.
And this channel literally started about five months ago. And I can tell just from my experience that most of this channel is AI created. And this video, for instance, what the Boeing 747 Hump was really for, got about 1.
4 million views and made $7,300. So yeah, really good niche. Has AI voice over as well as stock footage.
The scripts are likely created with AI as well. And so if you can find a very niche topic that a select group of people are extremely passionate about, like knowing everything there is to know about random airplanes out there, then you can get a ton of views and you can make a ton of money from it. And of course, it doesn't have to be airplanes, obviously.
It could be like random different types of animals or all kinds of other topics that has a very dedicated niche audience. And then you could just make these very entertaining and educational faceless explainer videos that go over those topics in detail. An example of a channel like this is Extinct Zoo.
This channel basically makes videos on all different types of animals that are extinct. So, a lot of their videos are about dinosaurs, but many other eras as well. And they're making about $45 to $134,000 a month.
And it's honestly kind of similar to the Airplane Channel. It's for a niche audience of people that are obsessed with dinosaurs or other animals that are extinct. And this video, for instance, the only time in history that water was safer than land, got about 12.
7 million views and made over $17,000. Now, this channel, in my opinion, I could be wrong about this, but I believe it does actually have a real narrator, so it's not an AI voice. I do believe that they use AI to help generate the art, but they have pretty good video editing as well, just creative direction in general.
I'm sure they use AI to help them write the scripts, but they probably have a lot of human supervision, too. So, it's going to be different for everyone how much AI you use versus how much you actually create the content yourself or hire somebody else to do it. That is kind of a personal choice, and it's going to be different for everyone out there.
And if you want help figuring that out for your niche or figuring out the idea, your niche, your format, how you're going to make money from your channel, etc. , then click the link in the description to attend the live training this Tuesday, 9:00 p. m.

With that being said, there is going to be that 1% or 0. 1% of people out there watching this that do want to have one-on-one coaching cuz they want to grow faster. They just want personalized consulting or something along those lines.
