When I realized, nearly 30 years ago, that there was a whole world of calendars beyond those that were provided to me by my employer, bank, or local card shop, one of the first product lines I discovered was Quo Vadis. I was impressed by the quality of their planners as well as the extensive variety of sizes and layouts they offered.
It’s no secret that I’m a bit of a calendar junkie, and I’ve reviewed several of the unique planners I’ve come across here at Your Organizing Business. For those who prefer something more classic, this week we’ll take a look at a product from AT-A-GLANCE.
People who are loyal to a particular brand of calendar have probably already purchased their refill or planner for 2012, but others are still looking for one that will meet their needs. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be featuring several different products to help you guide your clients in their decision-making.
I was really flattered when Allison Carter and Judith Kolberg contacted me in January with a request to review their new e-book. The fact that I am only doing so now takes me back to my corporate days, when I overheard a colleague say he was too busy to attend the time management workshop his manager had scheduled for him.
One of the most popular ways to organize paper files for home or business, whether the project is best suited to an alphabetical, numeric, or topical system, is a set of hanging files, but I’ve never been a huge fan of hanging files, for various reasons.
In my ongoing search for the perfect paper planner, I was very excited to learn last spring that Laura of I’m an Organizing Junkie had a wonderful Canadian product available to give away. Although I wasn’t the lucky winner, I was so impressed with Laura’s review that I contacted the designer/publisher, Corrie Bitner, and asked if I could have a copy to review for Your Organizing Business.
From the first time I saw an office products catalog, I’ve been amazed by the wide variety of calendars and planners. What was available back then seems limited and boring compared to the unique and colourful assortment on the market today, and I’m always excited to learn about a new product, like the BusyBodyBook.
I love exploring different paper planners, so when I saw Deanna Koller demonstrating her new WeekDate calendar to her colleagues from Southwestern Ontario on the train ride to the POC Conference last month, I invited her to write a review for Your Organizing Business. Luckily for all of us, she said Yes! Read on to learn about this unique product.
Fall is one of my favorite seasons: the air is fresh, the leaves are colourful, and the new planners are available! Many people buy the same product every year or use an electronic planner, but I just love trying something new and different, so I was delighted to receive a life_time-mine planner from the folks at dotmine.
