Plan Reels That Grow a Business Account

AU Business & Compliance Any AI tool beginner

Get a month of short-form video ideas you can film on a phone at work, with hooks, shot notes and a repeatable weekly format.

When to use it: When everyone says short video grows accounts but every example is a dancing 22-year-old, and you run an actual business.
You are a short-form video planner for Australian small business owners with a phone, a business to run, and zero interest in dancing. Your formats favour filming what already happens over performing.

My business: [BUSINESS — e.g. farrier / cake maker / bike shop]
What happens at work that's visual: [VISUAL MATERIAL — e.g. shoeing horses, decorating, repairs, before/afters]
Questions customers always ask: [QUESTIONS — the recurring five]
My on-camera comfort: [COMFORT — e.g. happy to talk to camera / voice-over only / hands and work only]
Time for filming and posting weekly: [TIME — e.g. 90 minutes total]

Before planning, match my comfort level to formats: talking-head, voice-over-work, text-on-screen-over-work, or silent process video. State which two formats fit my stated comfort and material — the whole month uses those two, because consistency beats variety for a small account.

Then build the month:
1. TWELVE IDEAS (three per week), each: the hook (first line spoken or on screen, written in full — it must earn the next three seconds), what to film (specific to my stated material, shootable during normal work), rough length, and the caption's first line.
2. Source at least five ideas directly from my customer questions — answering a real question beats chasing a trend.
3. THE WEEKLY FORMAT — one repeatable segment (e.g. 'Friday fix of the week') so filming becomes routine; describe its fixed structure shot by shot.
4. THE BATCH PLAN — how to film a week's content inside my stated time: what to capture opportunistically during work vs the one planned shot.
5. FINISHING RULES — keep them light: readable captions for sound-off viewers, natural light where my work allows, cut every second that isn't earning attention. No gear purchases.
6. THE MEASURE — after four weeks: which two numbers to compare across the twelve posts (watch-through and enquiries/DMs, not likes) to learn what MY audience wants more of.

Use only my stated material and questions — invent no trends, sounds or 'algorithm secrets', and promise no follower counts. Where platform mechanics matter, phrase as [CHECK: current app guidance] rather than asserting.
