Anything is possible!
Have you ever thought
“Hey, I could make one so much better than this.” Or maybe you thought….
- I really wish they hadn’t squeezed the entire week onto one page
- Only a shrunk-down version of the Ant-Man could write in lines this tiny
- This is no longer fits my lifestyle or helps me to achieve my goals
- Why is there a note about exercise everyday but not a H2O intake tracker?
- Where is my Notes section?
- Why did they ruin it with these bizarrely ugly colors?
- Why don’t they offer an option to customize the cover & inserts?
- Why are the tab dividers so huge?
Hiring a Designer isn’t a magic bullet solution:
- Exorbitantly Expensive Would I even make back my initial investment?
- Project Delays Ummm, thanks for delivering the final design in February after the year has already passed and planners are on sale for 80% off
- Wrong Design The final end product looked nothing like I described – was the designer even listening during our discovery call?
But DIY-ing it all alone came with a whole other set of problems:
- Canva, Word, Excel and Powerpoint had so many limitations on layout designs and it was frustrating trying to design on them
- Adobe InDesign was really the only solution that would work but every time I opened it, I was so overwhelmed, I wanted to cry
If you’re on this page (and look! You ARE) chances are HIGH that like me, you’ve discovered the same thing…
- You’re ready to monetize your great ideas, but you’re struggling to create the perfect planner
- What you’ve penciled out on paper looks nothing like the luxurious & high-end beautiful layout you know you can build
- Or maybe you’re the exact opposite of that and all of your hand-drawn Bullet Journals are totally Instagram-worthy and now you’re ready to digitize your beautiful designs into a beautiful planner to share with the world
- What you need is someone to help you DIY your ideas into something Instagram-worthy
- You need someone to show you how to do it Page-by-blank-white-page

FAQs
How long does the course take?
You’ll have immediate lifetime access to the entire course as soon as you purchase, so you can work through all the material at your own pace. On average, it takes students about 5-6 weeks to complete all the lessons although some crank it out in a week or two. But you can definitely fast-track yourself and get your planners and planner store up selling within a couple weeks if you work on this full-time!
Which planner templates are included?

Please note: You also get branding guide templates, mood boards and predesigned logo examples in the Beautiful Branding bonus module.
Can I use Canva or Microsoft Word instead of Adobe InDesign?
You could but do you really want to? All of the design lessons in Planner Academy are taught in Adobe InDesign because I want you to be able to create beautiful planner layouts that make people say WOW & I can help you do that! We’re going to create upscale, high-end luxury planners worthy of celebrity clientele. Let everyone else use Word and Canva – you’re moving onto something better!
How much is Adobe InDesign?
It’s $20.99/month for InDesign alone or you can purchase the entire Creative Cloud Bundle for $52.99/month and also have access to Adobe programs like Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere ad more. Or you can sign up for a free 30-day trial here which I would suggest activating when you’re ready to start Module Two: Design. I’ll walk you through exactly how to sign up for a free trial. All Adobe software subscriptions are month-to-month so you can unsubscribe whenever you want and re-subscribe as needed.
Can I hire someone to make a planner for me?
Yes! I have a list of designers that I can recommend that are able to create planners for you to sell. (READ: You won’t have to touch InDesign!)
Do you share all of your vendor names & contact information for printing?
Heck yah! Full transparency. My friends are your friends.
Are these the same templates that I already purchased in your Shop or the Etsy Kickstarter?
Not a chance! These templates are exclusive to Planner Academy and are not available for sale anywhere else. You must be enrolled as a student in Planner Academy to get them.
What if I’m already a designer – will I get anything out of this course?
Absolutely! I’m a designer but I can’t create my own fonts, design comic books, freehand draw, etc. The design world is so huge and every new skill adds to your dossier of projects and creates more money in your pockets. You’ll learn the specifics of not only creating planners, but which coil binding works best, where to get them bound, which overseas vendors work best for mass production, how to set up drop shipping and so much more. Your clients won’t be able to live without you and will rave about you to new prospective clients.
What if I hate it – can I get a refund?
No. You can’t love the course without getting instant access to all of the modules, all of the video lessons, the slide decks, the templates, the checklists, the workbooks and the bonuses so for that reason, I don’t have payment plans and I’m not able to offer refunds due to the digital nature of the course. I want to share everything with you right away, right now.
Do you love planners + love the idea of creating your own, whether it’s for personal or commercial use? Then you won’t hate this course. Seriously – this course rocks! It speaks your language – it’s all about planners, design layouts, printing, production, opening up a kicka$% Etsy shop to sell them in & more. I can’t even image why you’d be unhappy for even a second. If there’s something missing from this course, you can guarantee that I’m in the process of adding it.
Can I use these planner templates in my own planners?
For sure, that’s what the planner templates are there for. But they must be sold as PDFs or in physical format. The only thing that you cannot do is sell or share them as InDesign files to clients, customers or on design platforms like Creative Market. The purpose of the InDesign templates are to help you to learn, edit faster and start selling your own planners right away.

Testimonials
"My only hesitation with buying this course was having to use InDesign. I’d tried it before and was completely overwhelmed. I almost didn’t sign up for this course because of it. But I liked that it had lessons focused only on how to create my planner layouts and nothing more. Lisa’s lessons were great. Helpful, understandable and easy to follow along. The videos were KEY! I could pause, rewind and start over as much as I needed. I’ve already made ten sales in my Etsy Shop and it has only been open one week. I love the sound of the ka-ching my phone makes to alert me that there is a new sale. It’s the best sound in the world. I’d never be able to do that without the Planner Academy."
