Franklin Covey Planner



I was first introduced to Franklin Covey in 2000.  The binder I bought was brown leather and I still am using it to this day. Check it out on my youtube channel. One thing about Franklin Covey their products are very high quality and very durable.

Pros:
Great Reputation for quality
Longevity of Binders
Very Loyal Customers (including me)
Can order online or in the stores
Can swap with other planner items

Cons:
Expensive
Very limited in the variety of colors
Style Variety

Conclusion:

 I love Franklin Covey products as far as planning system and binders.  There are very few companies that guarentee their products and Franklin Covey is one of them.  The price is worth the money, which is also the main reason Franklin Covey received a A-.   Also with the new line of colorful products that can be customized like the Erin Condrin and Lime Life planners.  After I look into those planners I will come back full circle to evaluate the new Franklin Covey customize product.

Grade:  A-  

The Reason for this Journey


As a very busy modern woman, I need an organizer that will serve four functions.  I am self-employed, graduate student who also is a single mom.  Each of these jobs are equally important as they all keep me focused on the most important tasks of the day.   Many feel in the digital age that using my blackberry (yes, I still admit to have one and love it!) will do all that my manual planner accomplished.  But I find myself forgetting to set reminder alarms to remind me to do the tasks that are programed in my tablet and blackberry.  I need something manual that will fulfill the requirements for my business, graduate school, workout, and family.
