There’s a side of YouTube nobody ever talks about — because it’s not shiny, not trendy, not viral, and definitely not sexy.

But it’s quietly printing insane money.

It’s the world of boring, high-RPM, evergreen, faceless “What Is X?” and “How Does X Work?” videos… And it’s completely dominated by:

• old first-mover creators
• people who don’t even try to be entertaining
• slow-talking corporate employees
• PowerPoint-style explainers
• faceless narration over stock footage

They stumbled into niches where:

• Millions of people search the same thing every month
• Almost nobody creates content for it
• RPMs hit $10–$70+
• Competition is basically dead
• Videos live forever
• New creators have abandoned these topics

This is the faceless YouTube opportunity for 2025–2030.

Why These Niches Are Low-Hanging Fruit

Creators chase:

• entertainment
• drama
• politics
• vlogs
• trending memes
• viral formats

Meanwhile…

Entire niche markets generating trillions of dollars a year (SAP, Oracle, ERP, warehousing, QA testing, budget forecasting, property accounting, procurement, insurance workflows, B2B SaaS tools, etc.)…

…are underserved by anyone under 40.

1. ERP Is Easy

(https://www.youtube.com/@erpiseasy) Niche: SAP / ERP Explainers Outcome: High demand, almost zero fresh creators.

2. The Leaders Talk

(https://www.youtube.com/@theleaderstalk/videos) Niche: Corporate “What is…” explainers Outcome: High RPMs, evergreen search traffic.

These channels are:

• Narration-heavy
• Faceless
• PowerPoint-driven
• Unedited or low-edit
• Slow, calm, boring
• Perfectly ranked
• Untouchable for years

But here’s the secret:

Their dominance is NOT because they’re good… It’s because nobody else bothers to compete.

The Formula: Faceless + Long Tail + Boring Topic = Money

You don’t need personality. You don’t need charisma. You don’t need editing skills. You don’t need original opinions. You don’t even need a scriptwriter.

You follow the system:

Step 1 — Research Long Tail “Intro” Keywords

Examples:

• “What is SAP?”
• “How does ERP work?”
• “What is website flipping?”
• “How does procurement work?”
• “What is accounts receivable?”
• “What is OKR planning?”
• “What is a data warehouse?”
• “What is ISO 27001?”
• “How does Kubernetes work?”

These topics:

• get thousands to millions of monthly searches
• monetize extremely well
• have weak competitors
• have old, outdated videos
• still drive huge traffic every year
• are evergreen for 10+ years

Every time a new generation enters the workforce, they search these terms again.

This niche never dies.

Step 2 — Identify Niches Dominated by Old Creators

Look for:

• outdated thumbnails
• slow speaking
• old-school animations
• low production
• 30K–500K subs
• videos from 3–12 years ago still ranking #1
• corporate lecture-style pacing

Old creators won the niche 10 years ago.

They never updated anything.

YouTube keeps ranking them because…

There’s literally no one else competing.

This is where you strike.

Step 3 — Mass-Produce Faceless AI Explainer Videos

Your video structure is simple:

1. “What is X?”
2. “Why does X matter?”
3. “How X works in 3 steps”
4. “Example of X in real life”
5. “Future of X”

Use:

• AI scriptwriting
• AI voiceovers
• PowerPoint-style slides
• Simple animations
• B-roll
• Stock footage
• On-screen text
• A calm, neutral, corporate tone

These are NOT entertainment videos. They are Google Search replacements.

They make money because:

• People need answers
• Teachers assign these videos
• Recruiters share them
• Students watch them
• Job seekers search them
• Employees need quick explainers

You're plugging yourself into a built-in audience.

Step 4 — Target “Intro Level” Content (The Money Maker)

You want:

• “What is…”
• “How to get started with…”
• “Beginner guide to…”
• “Step-by-step explanation…”
• “Why companies use X…”

These videos get:

• consistent traffic every day
• high intent
• “work/education” audience (highest RPM)
• evergreen views for YEARS

One video can earn for a decade.

The key: Don't try to be unique. Try to be clear.

Step 5 — Produce 20–50 Videos to Claim the Niche

YouTube needs volume before ranking you in educational topics.

Your starter list could be:

• What is SAP ERP
• What is Oracle ERP
• What is CRM
• What is Website Flipping
• What is Wireframing
• What is DevOps
• What is Scrum
• What is Procurement
• What is ISO certification
• What is Data Governance
• What is Cloud Migration
• What is BPM
• What is ITIL
• What is Business Intelligence

Once your library hits 30–50 videos:

YouTube will treat you like a reference channel, not an entertainment channel.

And that’s when RPMs skyrocket.

Why This Works So Well in 2025

Because YouTube is now split into two worlds:

1. Entertainment creators fight for virality

Taking huge swings. Burning out. Competing with millions.

2. Educational explainers sit undisturbed

Zero competition. Zero drama. Zero creativity required.

This is the low-hanging fruit zone. Most YouTubers are too proud or too impatient to enter it.

You’re not.
