this looks like a cool product; but comes across as a kind of crappy discount to backers imho.
$23 for backers. estimated retail for $25.
so backers that are taking a massive risk and committing cash upfront to fund the development save a whopping $2... backers should be rewarded more for their initial backing imho.
Report
@_jacksmith Not sure I'd call backing a journal a massive risk, but I do agree the $2 off is a weird incentive.
Report
@kevinespiritu the main risk/downside is that you don't know exactly when it will ship (and the quality might be worse than expected)
@_jacksmith Hi Jack, as we communicate in Kickstarter, the planner will be shipped in January 2016 and we will do our best to ship before then. We have been in the journal business for sometime and backers will be receiving a high quality product that Five Minute Journal users have known for years now. We are working with one of the best manufacturers in China that have work with your favourite publishers and notebook providers (Clue: starts with M).
Regarding price, the early bird was priced around $20USD and it was gone pretty quickly. We have priced it according to other successful journal/planner Kickstarters which had planners at higher price points that our, with similar or less discount.
@esbvn thanks for the heads up, I was about to share this just now. Doesn't look like anything I can't just manually replicate in my already-stellar Baron Fig Confidant, without sacrificing the need to take notes from time to time.
@esbvn You are right that we will be sending a full PDF after Kickstarter finishes, however, you still get a quick start PDF with a Quick Guide and a daily planner page for now.

Just purchased it. Watched Alex for a long time, and had another very similar thing that I just finished so I thought I would give this a shot. Any people around here that used it for a long time ? Opinions ? :)
I like how you can review your week and write down what you could have done better. It would be great if they also considered adding weekends to the Productivity Planner. You need to work around that by using different pages meant for something else. What I also like is the Pomodoro section where you can indicate how much time you need for a certain task.
Pros:
Helps to manage different activities and helps to keep you accountable.
Cons:
Would be helpful if they also added weekends. I work around this by using other pages.

Paper planner from the creators of my all time favourite Five Minute Journal. It kills me that postage is so high to Australia (pretty much the same price as the lovely book) - enough to make me get on a plane with an empty suitcase :-)
This looks like a great product. I read an article a few months ago regarding productivity and how to do it well. It mentioned working on 1 task for 25 min without stopping. Resting for 5 min. Then working on anther task for 25 min and so on. When we multi task we think we are accomplishing more, but that is not true. We are able to complete tasks faster by focusing all of our our attention to one of them at a time with no interruptions; silent phones, don't answer emails, nada.
