Guide for accountants

Accountant? Want more clients without showing your face?

You can read a balance sheet in your sleep and spot a missed deduction from across the room. Here is how to get you found: short videos with one money tip each, posted on YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Reels. No camera, no editor, no editing skills. This page gives you the prompt, 30 video ideas and a ready first script.

We get it

You're an accountant, not a video editor. You don't need to become one.

You can explain depreciation and cash flow to a nervous business owner without notes. But video probably felt like a different job: cameras, lights, timelines, cutting, captions, music. So it stayed on the "someday" list.

With jajavideo you write (or let AI write) what you want to say. That's it. The built-in director splits it into scenes, picks a visual for every sentence, adds a natural voice-over, music and animated captions. You don't need to be a good speaker or writer either. The prompt on this page writes the scripts from your expertise. You just check that the numbers and rules are right for your country.

These videos share general information, not personal financial or tax advice.

Why video works for accountants

Nobody enjoys tax season. A 40-second video makes it less scary.

Most business owners don't know what an accountant actually does all month. Video lets them learn from you before they ever book a call.

Did you know? 54% of Americans now get news through social and video networks, more than through TV (50%).

Trust before the first meeting

Someone who watched ten of your plain-language tips already feels like they know you. The first call becomes a conversation instead of a pitch.

You stand out in a quiet field

Most accounting firms still rely on referrals and a website. Very few post short videos that explain money in plain words. Steady, useful videos put you ahead of most of them.

Explain the invisible

Accounting is hard to see. A short that shows why keeping receipts matters makes the value concrete for a client who never thought about it.

Answer the same question once

If you answer "do I need a different business structure?" in a video, you can send it to every new enquiry. You write it once and it keeps working.

Step by step

From zero to a week of accounting videos in one sitting

Copy the accounting prompt below

Add your firm's name, your city or market, and who your clients are. Your details go straight into the prompt.

Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini

You get 10 scripts, each explaining one specific money or tax topic, each opening with a hook and ending with your name.

Check the facts like you'd check a client's books

You're the expert. Fix anything that's outdated or doesn't match the rules where you work. Five minutes.

Paste all 10 into jajavideo's Bulk tab

Sign up free, open Bulk, paste. The AAA lines split them into 10 separate videos.

Pick a voice, press Generate, then post or schedule

Each video is a vertical MP4 for Shorts, TikTok, Reels and Facebook. Post them at your own pace, or schedule them on the platforms so one goes live each week while you work.

The format

Plain text, a Title: line, AAA between scripts

No scenes, no visual directions. Just what should be said. This is exactly what you paste:

Paste into jajavideo → Bulk
Title: Accounting tip: the receipt you didn't keep
Here's a question I get every year. Can I still claim that business lunch if I lost the receipt? Usually the answer is messier than people hope. A bank statement shows the payment, but it doesn't show what was bought or why it was business. Your local tax authority may want a record that shows the date, the amount and the purpose. So the habit that saves you is small: snap a photo of the receipt the moment you pay, and write one line about who you met and why. Ten seconds now, or an hour of digging later.

Copy, paste, done

The accounting prompt: 10 expert scripts in one go

Fill in your details. The prompt updates as you type. Copy it into any AI chat and paste the answer straight into jajavideo.

Prompt for Claude · ChatGPT · Gemini
You are an expert short-form video scriptwriter and an experienced accountant who works with small businesses. Write 10 scripts for faceless YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Reels for an accountant.

About me:
- Name or firm: [YOUR NAME OR FIRM]
- City or market: online, no specific city
- My ideal clients: freelancers and sole traders
- My focus: bookkeeping and record-keeping basics
- Language of the scripts: English

Rules for every script:
1. Explain ONE specific, practical money or tax topic that a small business owner can understand and act on. No generic ads like "Struggling with tax? Call me".
2. The first sentence is the hook: a common mistake, a myth, or a real question clients ask. It must keep the viewer watching past the first 3 seconds.
3. 90 to 130 words of flowing spoken narration (about 30 to 50 seconds). Plain language a business owner understands, short sentences. No jargon without a one-line explanation. No scene directions, emojis, lists or headings.
4. Include one concrete detail: a number, a deadline, a document name, a real situation.
5. General education only. No personal financial or tax advice, no guarantees, no promises of refunds, savings or results. Say that rules differ by country and change over time.
6. End with this sentence: "Want a plain-English tax checklist? Search [YOUR NAME OR FIRM] on Google.". Write any website as words, for example "example dot com".
7. Each script covers a different topic. Mix mistakes, myths, client questions, quick how-tos, record-keeping and deadlines.

Format (follow exactly):
- Start each script with one line: Title: [topic]: [hook]. The title is not read aloud.
- Then the narration as one paragraph.
- After each script, a line that contains only AAA.

Output only the 10 scripts in this format, nothing before or after. I will paste them straight into jajavideo.

Video 1 · The receipt you didn't keep

Read the script

Title: Accounting tip: the receipt you didn't keepHere's a question I get every January. Can I still claim that business lunch if I lost the receipt? Usually the answer is messier than people hope. A bank statement shows the payment, but it doesn't show what was bought or why it was business. Most tax authorities want a record that shows the date, the amount and the purpose. So the habit that saves you is small: snap a photo of the receipt the moment you pay, and write one line about who you met and why. Ten seconds now, or an hour of digging later. Want a simple record-keeping checklist? Search Northgate Accounts on Google.

Video 2 · The mileage log nobody keeps

Read the script

Title: Accounting tip: the mileage log nobody keepsQuick question. If you drive to a client meeting, can you claim the fuel? Probably, but only if you can show the trip was for business. Most people claim the driving and forget the record. A fuel receipt proves you bought fuel, not that the journey was work. So keep a simple log: the date, where you went, who you saw and the miles. A notes app on your phone is enough if you fill it in the same day. Do it for a month and it becomes automatic. Rules differ by country, so check what your tax office accepts. Want a free mileage log template? Search Northgate Accounts on Google.

Video 3 · Business structure: sole trader or limited company?

Read the script

Title: Business structure: sole trader or limited company?One of the first questions new clients ask is whether they should change their business structure. It's tempting to say yes because it sounds more professional, but the honest answer is that it depends. As a sole trader, you and the business are the same legal person, and the paperwork is simpler. As a limited company, the business is separate, which can matter for liability and for how you take money out, but it comes with filing obligations and published accounts. The right choice depends on your profit, your risk and your plans. Ask before you switch, not after. Want a plain-English comparison? Search Northgate Accounts on Google.

Your accounting instinct applies here too

What makes a Short get watched

Think of it as explaining a client's accounts: one clear point, in plain words, with a reason to keep listening.

The first 3 seconds are your opening line

Open with the mistake, the myth or the client question. If the first sentence doesn't earn the click to keep watching, nothing after it is seen.

Title as Topic: hook

"Accounting tip: the receipt you didn't keep" tells the viewer and the platform exactly who it's for.

One tip per video

Three tips in 40 seconds means none sticks. One topic, one action, one reason it matters.

Help first, credit last

No "Struggling with tax? Call me!" openers. The tip earns attention. Your name in the last line earns the follow-up search.

Say it like a client, not a textbook

"Money you take out" beats "director's remuneration". If a client wouldn't say it at the kitchen table, rewrite it.

Post at your own pace

You tell clients that good records take a little time each month. An audience works the same way. Make a batch in one sitting and schedule them so one goes live each week while you work.

Think bigger

More than marketing: new ways to earn with video

When a finished video costs you a couple of minutes, video stops being a cost and becomes something you can sell.

Did you know? 57% of video marketers say video reduced the support questions they get.

Add "a video every week" to your packages

Your clients need to understand their own numbers, and most of them never read your emails. Offer short explainer videos as an add-on: you write the tips with the prompt, jajavideo makes the videos, and you deliver them under the client's brand. Commercial use is included on every plan, and on Unlimited you can put your own logo on the videos.

Example: 5 clients × 8 videos a month = 40 videos
Your cost on Unlimited: $27 a month in total
Your price: whatever 8 videos a month is worth to your clients

Onboarding videos for new clients

A short video on what to send you and when saves the same questions every time. Send it before the first meeting.

Turn one newsletter into Shorts

Paste a client newsletter into the prompt and get five scripts from it. Same writing, many more places to be found.

Win clients in their language

Clients trading abroad? Make their money tips in Spanish, Japanese or Arabic. jajavideo speaks 74 languages, so you can offer what most firms can't.

Year-end reminders that get watched

A short video about the filing deadline is more memorable than an email. Make it once and reuse it every year.

Never made a video before? Start here

Every question a first-timer asks, answered

You've never edited a video and never used a system like this. That's fine. Most people who use jajavideo hadn't either. Pick any question below. Can't find yours? Ask Jaja, our agent.

Getting started

I have never edited a video in my life. Can I really do this?

Yes. You never open an editing program, never cut anything and never touch a timeline. You paste text into a box, pick a voice, and press Generate. jajavideo does every video step for you: it splits your text into scenes, picks a picture or clip for every sentence, records the voice-over, adds music and puts animated captions on screen. If you can copy and paste, you can make a video.

What exactly do I need before I start?

Three things: an email or Google account to sign up, a few sentences about an accounting topic (or the prompt on this page to write them), and a few minutes. No camera, microphone, software, design skills or credit card.

How do I sign up?

Go to jajavideo.com and press "Continue with Google". It takes about 10 seconds. You can also sign up with an email address. No card is asked for.

What's the very first thing I should do after I sign up?

Make one test video before anything else. Open the dashboard, stay on the Single tab, and paste this:

Title: Accounting tip: keep business and personal money separate
One of the most common mistakes new business owners make is mixing business and personal money in the same bank account. It makes bookkeeping messy and can cause problems at tax time. Open a separate business account and use it for all business income and expenses. Your accountant will thank you, and you'll always know where you stand. Need help getting organized? Search LedgerLine Accounting on Google.

Choose English and any voice, press Generate, and in a couple of minutes you'll see your first finished video. After that, everything else on this page will make sense.

How long until I have my first video?

Usually a couple of minutes per video. If many people are making videos at the same moment it can take a bit longer. You can close the tab: you'll get an email the moment it's ready.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Everything runs in your browser, on a computer or a phone.

Scripts: what the video says

What is a "script"?

Just the words the voice will say in the video. Nothing technical. For a 30–50 second video that's about 90–130 words, roughly one short paragraph.

I'm not a writer or a speaker. Who writes the scripts?

You don't have to. You have three easy options. One: copy the accounting prompt on this page into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini, and it writes 10 scripts for you. Two: inside jajavideo, type one line like "a tip about estimated tax payments for freelancers" and press ✨ Write script. Three: ask Jaja, the script assistant, for ideas in plain words. Your only job is to read the result and make sure the accounting advice is correct.

What's the "Title:" line for?

It names your video so you can find it later. It is never read aloud and never shown in the video. Use the pattern Topic: hook, for example Title: Accounting tip: why you shouldn't wait until year-end to review your books.

Do I write anything about the pictures or scenes?

No. Write only what should be said. jajavideo's built-in director reads your sentences and chooses a matching visual for each one by itself.

How do I make people contact me at the end?

Make the last sentence your credit, for example "Search LedgerLine Accounting on Google." The voice reads it out. If you mention a website, write it as words, "ledgerline dot com", so the voice says it correctly. Jaja can also add the ending for you if you tell it your website or phone number.

Can I fix a word or a sentence the AI wrote?

Of course. It's just text. Change anything before you paste it into jajavideo. If you notice a problem after the video is made, edit the text and make it again.

What if I run out of ideas?

Use the 30 ideas on this page, write down the questions your clients ask you, or reply to the AI in the same chat: "Write 10 more, completely different tips." You can also paste one of your blog posts and ask for five scripts based on it.

Bulk: many videos in one paste

What is Bulk, in simple words?

Bulk lets you paste several scripts at once and get a separate video for each one. Instead of making ten videos one by one, you paste ten scripts in one go and come back to ten finished videos.

How does jajavideo know where one video ends and the next starts?

Put a line with only AAA between scripts. Each script starts with its own Title: line. Here is the smallest possible example, 3 scripts that become 3 videos:

Title: Accounting tip: keep business and personal money separate
One of the most common mistakes new business owners make is mixing business and personal money in the same bank account. It makes bookkeeping messy and can cause problems at tax time. Open a separate business account and use it for all business income and expenses. Your accountant will thank you, and you'll always know where you stand. Search LedgerLine Accounting on Google.
AAA
Title: Accounting tip: don't wait until year-end to review your books
Waiting until the last minute to review your books can turn small issues into big headaches. A monthly check-in helps you spot missing receipts, duplicate payments, and unusual expenses early. It also gives you time to ask questions before deadlines. A little routine goes a long way. Search LedgerLine Accounting on Google.
AAA
Title: Accounting myth: an accountant is only for tax season
Many business owners think an accountant is only useful in tax season. In reality, a good accountant can help you plan cash flow, set budgets, and make decisions throughout the year. Regular conversations can prevent surprises and keep your business on track. Think of your accountant as a year-round partner. Search LedgerLine Accounting on Google.

Real scripts should be longer (90–130 words), but that's the whole idea: Title, text, AAA, repeat.

Where do I paste them?

In the dashboard, click the Bulk tab (next to Single), paste everything into the big box, choose the language and voice, and press Generate. All videos use the same voice and caption style.

Do I have to write "AAA" myself?

No, if you use the prompt on this page. It already tells the AI to put AAA between scripts, so you copy the AI's answer and paste it as it is.

I forgot the AAA lines. What happens?

If each script starts with its own "Title:" line, jajavideo still splits them correctly. AAA is simply the safest way to be sure.

Can I mix languages in one Bulk paste?

It's best to paste one language at a time, so every video gets a voice that matches. Make the English batch, then the Spanish batch.

Where do I find all the videos afterwards?

On your Videos page. Each one appears as soon as it's ready, and you get an email when they're done. Download them any time within 30 days.

The video itself

Will my face or voice be in the video?

No. The videos are faceless: real images and short clips, a natural AI voice-over, music and captions. Nobody appears on camera, and you never record your voice.

Can I choose the voice and the captions?

Yes. Choose from 300+ natural voices in 74 languages, and from 5 caption styles: Classic, Karaoke, Word Pop, Box Highlight or Two-line.

What if I don't like how a video came out?

Press "Make it again — free". It's made again from the same script with fresh visuals, and it never counts against your free videos.

How long can a video be?

Shorts can run up to about 3 minutes of narration, but 30–60 seconds usually works best. The Unlimited + Long plan adds landscape YouTube videos up to 4 minutes.

What format is the video?

A vertical 1080×1920 MP4, the standard size for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels and Facebook. Make it once, post it everywhere.

Will faceless videos make me look less professional?

Not when each video teaches a real, specific tip. People judge a short by whether it was worth their time. A clear accounting tip with your name at the end reads as expertise.

Posting & scheduling

Do I have to post a video every day?

No. Post at the pace that suits you. The simple rule is: the more useful videos you put out, the more potential clients learn your name. Two or three a week is a fine start. Steady beats occasional bursts.

I don't have time to upload every day. What can I do?

Schedule them. Make a batch of videos in one sitting with Bulk, then use the scheduling tools that the platforms already give you for free, so one video goes live each day (or every other day) while you work.

  • YouTube: upload in YouTube Studio and choose "Schedule" instead of "Public", then pick the date and time.
  • Instagram and Facebook: Meta Business Suite lets you schedule Reels ahead of time.
  • TikTok: on the TikTok website you can set a future posting time when you upload.

One hour on Sunday can fill the whole week. Platform menus change from time to time, so look for the "Schedule" option when you upload.

Where should I post first?

Start with one platform you already use or where your clients are, often YouTube Shorts or Instagram. Once that's a habit, post the same videos on the others. They're already the right size.

What should I write in the description?

One or two sentences about the tip, your business name, and how to contact you. On YouTube, add a link to your website if your channel allows links.

Does jajavideo upload the videos for me?

No. You download each video and post it yourself, so you stay in control of your accounts.

Results

How soon will I get clients from this?

Nobody can promise that, and we won't. Like any marketing, video builds up over time. Give it a steady few months, look at which topics get watched, and make more like those.

How do I know what's working?

Each platform shows you views and how long people watched. Look for videos that keep people watching past the first few seconds, and repeat their topic and opening style.

My first videos got few views. Did I do something wrong?

Probably not. New accounts often start slowly while the platform learns who your videos are for. Keep posting, make your first sentence stronger, and keep each video to one clear tip.

Do these videos help people find me online?

They add visibility on YouTube, social platforms and Google Business Profiles, and can keep visitors engaged on pages where they're embedded. No video guarantees new clients, so don't promise that to clients.

Clients & business

Can I make videos for my clients and charge for them?

Yes. Commercial use is included on every plan, so you can publish videos on your clients' accounts and sell video as part of your accounting packages.

Can I put my own logo on the videos?

Yes, on the Unlimited plans. Every video is watermark-free, or carries your own logo if you want it.

Can I make videos in my clients' languages?

Yes, in 74 languages including right-to-left ones like Arabic, Persian and Urdu. Ask the prompt to write in that language, then pick a voice in the same language.

Free plan & price

Is it really free?

Yes. Every day you get 5 completely watermark-free videos, about 150 a month, with no card. After those 5, you can keep making videos with a small "Made with jajavideo" credit.

When do my 5 free videos reset?

Every day at 00:00 UTC.

Do failed videos or redos count?

No. Only finished videos count, and "Make it again" is always free.

What do the paid plans add?

Unlimited ($27/month): unlimited watermark-free videos, your own logo, priority in the queue. Unlimited + Long ($47/month): everything in Unlimited plus landscape videos up to 4 minutes. Both are monthly PayPal subscriptions you can cancel any time.
