The year planner is designed to display six months on each side when fully unfolded

Perhaps the most popular usage has been to fold it to display a day-by-day page for one

month and a notes page

The simple use of a bulldog clip turns a carry around planner into a wall-mounted

planning tool

Opening the planner up to

show two months at a time gives a longer overview

of workload planning

By making another open

fold, day-by-day planning can be

set in the context of a timeline to get an overview

of deadlines

Easily refolded after use, the planner is a portable and flexible

tool for planning time
