If you love the idea of creating a daily planner, hopefully our articles earlier this year outlining the steps and strategies for a smooth process helped inspire and motivate you. We shared a step-by-step guide for creating a planner from A to Z, stressing the importance of understanding the timelines and planning ahead. We followed up with a detailed look at deciding how your planner will look and function with design and formatting tutorials you’ll want to bookmark.

Once you’ve set your plan and started designing your planner, the next steps are really fun – deciding on the details, all those little extras that can really make your product shine.
