Start planning for 2012 with a Year Planner from Office1

Have you thought of your New Year’s resolutions yet? The year 2011 will soon come to a close, and in just weeks we will welcome a new year. If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to be better organised, using a year planner can help.

If you are not familiar with year planners, you might be surprised at how practical and useful they can be. A year planner lays out the entire year in grid form so that you can record and organise schedules, appointments and other commitments and view everything at a glance.

A year planner is indispensible in any business, small or large, where managers and staff can all use it for easy reference. Meetings, deadlines, shipping and work-order commitments can all be recorded on the easy-to-read matrix. Employee scheduling and order control are easily accomplished with a year planner, and project progress and sales goals can be conveniently tracked.

Since year planners are laminated, entries can be easily wiped off as scheduling and other needs change. Many, such as the ColplanA1 year planner, come with dry-wipe pens and self-adhesive stickers that you can use to designate various responsibilities. Some, like the Sasco EU planner, are mounted on heavy card for added stability. The Mark-it perpetual year planner has repositionable strips that allow you to use it year after year. The Franken year calendar planner is a smart choice for larger projects because it has room to write several entries on one day and comes with magnets as well as stickers.

You can resolve to be better organised in your personal life, too, with a year planner at home. School and after-school commitments can be written on the easy-to-see grid. The Sasco portrait planner is in vertical format and can be effortlessly mounted on the back of a door. Doctors’, dentists’ and even vets’ appointments can be noted on a year planner. Family budgets can be tracked and children’s assignments listed. You can even use a year planner at home to list your personal aspirational objectives to keep yourself on track. A compact year planner, such as the Sasco compact year planner, fits almost anywhere.

As we celebrate a new year, we welcome the new opportunities that it brings. Good planning gives us the opportunity to manage life more efficiently with less stress, better organisation and improved peace of mind. And that alone is something worth celebrating.
