I love the idea of the triple combination. I have the amplified planner and have been enjoying it. I think this style of planner is the next big thing because it has every type of view covered. My only issue is the price, as $120 for a year is expensive.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for chiming in as a user of Amplify. You definitely have to just factor in that cost if you love this planner;)

[@besalasestrellas]

Starting 2021, we’ll be able to purchase the year in a bundle. I’ll be interested to see how much the bundle will be priced at!

[@AmplifyPlanner]

Hey Amanda! Thank you SO much for reviewing our planner, it means so much to us! It's funny because we created a Pocket Calendar that is very similar to the Ashely Shelly Notebook Planner. Of course, we didn't have it fully created and printed before you reviewed our planner. We'll definitely get one over to you though so you can check it out, we'd love to see what you think!

[@AmandasFavorites]

You are so welcome! And I would love to try out the pocket calendar and share it;) Thank you!

[@stacythomas7162]

Buy headbands at the Dollar Tree to keep your planner closed. Spread your money instead on good writing implements.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Great idea, thanks for sharing:) I just know lots of planner people already have these bands from other companies since you can use them for years:) So I like to remind them they can just use those;)

[@stacythomas7162]

@@AmandasFavorites i meant spend not spread lol.

[@consciousnessrazor]

Oh man... this planner is EVERYTHING! Almost. I would be happier with 2 half-year planners instead of 4 quarterlies, but this has so many things I look for! ;) Wow wow wow wow... Thanks again, Amanda! :)

[@AmandasFavorites]

Yay:) I hear ya on preferring the 6 month....maybe they will offer that as an option too one day as they grow:)

[@kellirice2838]

Agree with half a year AND I like Monday starts for both monthly and weekly

[@SarahSquarah]

This is my absolute favorite planner I’ve ever had! And I’ve been through about every one of them

[@geaniescott7195]

I'm really interested in this one

[@AmandasFavorites]

Love hearing that from a user:)

[@4EverThaynkful]

Hello Amanda. Thanks for another great review and for introducing me to another new brand name (well, new to ME anyway). I am very impressed by this planner! It has everything that I want, and more. I currently use the EC Daily Duo because I prefer a daily layout, but I would love to have monthly AND weekly AND daily calendars all in one coiled binding, without having to work with a planner that is 3 inches thick and weighs 6 pounds even without adding stickers! I will give this Amplify Combination Planner a try for the next quarter. I will be preordering today, and will be using your link to do so. Thanks again.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Oh, awesome:) I would love to hear your thoughts after using Amplify for a quarter:)

[@suzannegardenhire203]

I've used Amplify Planners for 2+ years. It's like they read my mind of what I wished for in a planner and created it. I do write small, so I like the narrow lines. And the gray 'freedom boxes'...I have changed the headings at times...and that's the flexibility I absolutely love. I buy the yearly bundle (all 4 quarters) in September which saves a chunk of $.

[@AmandasFavorites]

I love that you’ve found exactly what works for you! It takes all the guesswork out 😊

[@rosannegreen7860]

Love this planner and great review as always. I’m thinking of this for Q1 2021. It seems like the 4 empty boxes on the daily pages could match back to the 4 goals you’ve prioritized for the quarter- kind of how Makse life does. I like the goal planning piece to this.

[@besalasestrellas]

I use my freedom boxes for meal tracking, self care and verse/quotes of the day. It really is so versatile which is why I’ve been loving it so much

[@AmandasFavorites]

That's a great idea!

[@juliesmith6004]

I bought this planner and love MANY of the features. Down falls for me are the horizontal weekly layout, and the overall size of the planner, 7x10. It just takes up so much real estate on my desk. Completely agree with your task line assessment. The lines are way to small and I can’t fit everything on the line. If you are a sticker user you MUST use un-du to remove stickers (even repositionable stickers) because taking them up destroys the paper. I really wanted to make this planner work as I love so much about it and their community on Facebook is awesome! But, it’s a no go for me😔. Great review as always! Thanks Amanda!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Julie, thank you so much for sharing your experience. What valuable information from a user! I had no idea about the stickers bc I didn't try any.....so thank you for the heads up. That is shocking since Chelsea owns a big sticker shop herself.

[@GrayManConcepts]

they have a pocket size that is simplified

[@kbaccari88]

I found the line spacing to be a massive issue. I'm not picky, but this is not a cheap planner and I need to be able to write stuff down

[@CRAYONL516]

I’ve been using an amplify quarterly and love it. Next to purpose planner it might be my favorite. I usually prefer bound but I realize that I don’t mind these rings because it’s more like notebook style and they’re really durable and not cumbersome. I’d love to keep ordering but do wish they were not so expensive.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for taking time to share your thoughts;)

[@vickiemendoza9252]

Thanks for the review, Amanda! I love the 80lb paper & the lined monthly boxes :)

[@JunkJournalTreasures]

Great review! Interesting planner, although a little dull looking(not that it would be a deal breaker). I was looking through your lists for a weekly planner that has a 2 page weekly overview spread between each week...if that makes sense, lol. She Plans used to have something like that. Do you know of any? Thanks! Oh, also what other planner has daily, weekly, monthly even if Sat and Sun are shared. Thanks again.

[@AmandasFavorites]

To be able to add 2 pages in between each week...Makselife comes with that- but they aren't blank pages one is for goals. They are on sale right now--and I have a full review video for you. I do have a Makselife affiliate link in my video descriptions if you purchase. And Golden Coil offers that ability and you can choose your pages and they are having their Mother's day sale right now--they only have 2 sales a year....Mother's Day and Black Friday. I have a full Golden Coil Playlist to see what they offer. Other Question: Daily + weekly + monthly- Hobonichi Cousin (a Japanse Planner), Makselife has an undated Daily that has a week at a glance page, Ivory Paper Co. (although got bad customer service reviews in the comments of that video), Bella Grace (a small company I did an IGTV review of), Full Focus, and of course Amplify. I have reviews on all of those. Or you can build your own with discbound or rings (Inkwell Press, happy Planner, rings with inserts or a Travelers Notebook system.) Agendio is a custom planner company- but the last time I checked they didn't offer this yet. Hope that helps!

[@toribirdz]

Awesome, flexible layout, but wouldn’t work for me as a student because I couldn’t fit the whole semester in one book. It’d drive me insane to split it up. 😬

[@AmandasFavorites]

Gotcha:)

[@valenciamaribel]

I love Chelsea’s stickers, I’m so happy she released her own planner

[@blossom30x4]

This looks like a great planner...I would rather have the task headers blank...this is assuming you have way more work tasks than personal. I wish the grey boxes were a little lighter grey and with all coiled planners I wish it came with an option to purchase without the coils like plum paper. Love the 5 am start so hard to find in planners. Thanks for the review, definitely one to keep an eye on.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for chiming in with your thoughts. Good ideas;)

[@Natalie.D]

Thanks for this video! I like the idea for this planner, it's just not for me. I'm living "planner peace" in my large academic passion.planner. But I'm eyeing the new Plum Paper 6 month daily in the a5 size. I love a spiral binding for dailies so you can flip the book over and show only one page, but I don't know if adding a daily to my routine would just overwhelm me or distract me from my main planner. Thanks for your previous plum paper review.

[@AmandasFavorites]

So happy to hear you are enjoying your Passion Planner:) Plum Paper is a wonderful daily option, but I hear ya on the not sure what it will do to your planner routine!

[@jillnelsonmalmt6085]

Hello! Great review! I love seeing the layouts in different planners. Thank you for sharing. For clarification- is the task line width 1/8th” (seems super small) or are they 3/16th”? Many thanks. 😊

[@AmandasFavorites]

I was wrong...they are 1/2cm or 1/5 of an inch which I guess is 3/16th;)

[@bbaslp]

The blank squares before each week on monthly layout would be great for Listing FlyLady Zones.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for sharing that!

[@sarahdavis7566]

Questions 1) is the paper like Plum Paper? It’s a little too smooth for me 2) I know the size is different but if I trimmed a large Erin Condron planner cover would it fit the coil? Lots of great features about this Amplify planner - Thanks!

[@AmandasFavorites]

The cover does fit and snap in the coil, but of course is not the right size as you already know. And the paper is very similar to plum paper. So if you don't like that paper then Amplify isn't for you:(

[@kgh2015]

Hi Amanda, how would you say this paper compares to the Plum Paper Planners? I like a little more grit to my pages than Plum Paper, so I was hoping to get your take on it. Thank you in advance for the insight!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Yes, it's similar to Plum Paper...no grit at all. Happy Holidays!

[@kgh2015]

@@AmandasFavorites Thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate it! Happy Holidays to you as well.

[@ashlee6892]

Such a great planner! I’m not sure if I can turn away from the weekly passion planner though :( I like to have the whole year in one planner so I don’t know what to do for next year because I really wanted to try the passio planner daily but it’s only quarterly. The sound is good on this video btw you can’t even tell it’s been recorded on your iPhone 👌

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thank you Ashlee:) I always say if I am loving something and it works well for me...why switch? But I know....it's hard for us planner people to not want to try out new options:) Hard decision!

[@InkLeadPaperThread]

Great video! This reminds me a bit of the Clever Fox Ultimate Achiever's planner (which is my favorite, so I focus on it a lot in my channel). That planner also has the weekly, monthly, and daily pages WITH Saturday and Sunday pages! Have you tried it? It's great because like this Amplify planner, it is designed to help people achieve their goals. (And it's a 13-week planner, so it's not to hefty to carry.)

[@AmandasFavorites]

I have reviewed that one too! Thanks for reminding me about it;)

[@mssrosario3229]

Yes!! I'm loving this planner!! I just don't have use for it yet :( wish they'd come out before I bought all my planners. I'm considering it for work tho! But I would prefer it be 6mo.

[@AmandasFavorites]

You are not the first person to mention you want it in 6 months:)

[@marshamiddleton5910]

Late to the game, but shaded boxes would be awesome for my morning, work, afternoon, and evening routines! And it starts at 5:00am! It’s a miracle!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Great ideas:) and yes perfect for the early birds- or those forced to be;)

[@christyhuber2940]

Hello Amanda, Dose this Planner have the flexibility to be printed so you can use a disc bound system like Happy Planner

[@AmandasFavorites]

They do offer a printable version. Check their site for details on that;)

[@ctevepaugh]

You mentioned other combo daily/weekly planners at the beginning of the video. Ones that had one page for Sat/Sun. I don’t need them separate. I also prefer two half year books rather than quarterly. Suggestions?

[@AmandasFavorites]

Hobonichi actually does half year books called the Hobonichi Cousin Avec. I don't know if you are into the Japanese planners? But that's a great one...although it does have the full Sat/Sun pages. Ivory Paper Co. does a 6 month book and Sat/Sun share a page--she has some issues with the cover not sliding well right now....and I share that in my video. But I am told it will be fixed hopefully by years end. I have a recent video on that planner too. Let me know if you can't find it. Erin Condren Daily Duo comes in 6 month books and Sat/Sun share a page (love that option!) And I have a full review on the Erin Condren Daily Duo too. Those are the only ones I have reviewed that I can think of right now;)

[@sarahdavis7566]

Definitely worth considering. Love it except I wish the daily pages were less boxed up, I liked your suggestion about not having the shaded box and continuing the tasks to the edge. Any chance they will make that change before the new edition?

[@AmandasFavorites]

I am not privy to any information from Amplify....I don't have any idea if they would even consider those changes;) But thanks for chiming in:) You can always email them or DM them on IG:)

[@amytaylor8009]

I love this planner, great review! I’m trying to figure out putting my weekly, myo5 grid notes and a daily together and this looks great! Maybe Chelsea will start doing stickers with various modifications to the pages so it can really be customized further! Thank you and thanks to Chelsea!

[@AmandasFavorites]

That's a great idea about stickers for modifications:)

I am considering this planner for next year but like others the yearly price is concerning. I hope they have a good winter sale.

They’ll be providing a bundle option for 2021 ... I’m looking forward to seeing what they price the bundle at !

[@nurahsmith8826]

@@besalasestrellas thanks for letting me know because that bundle price switches things up. Now I am considering testing the Q4 option especially while my color choice is still available.

Their timeline is only 6-9 and I'm pretty sure they only have undated options, but it is pretty similar. They have the 6 month option which I really like.

[@evanl33]

Do you have a promo code for Amplify?

[@AmandasFavorites]

I don't. Sorry!

[@mikezen99]

I used to use Amplify Planner 3 years ago but have stopped. This quarterly planner was $32 then and it is now $65. You can buy an EC, Simplify or Day Designer at this price point. It has doubled in price for a quarterly planner. This translates to $260 per year which is my view sheer madness for a premium planner. Even the elites like EC, Simplify have stayed their prices or increased marginally. There’s a whole ton of other planners in the market which will not cost you an arm and limb.,

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for sharing. I was not aware of that increase.

[@stephaniesneeden4771]

Is this appropriate for an adult that has a job and a business, and has adhd? Time blindness is a real struggle

I would say yes;) It has that time blocking for every day. Full Focus might be another one to look at that I just reviewed.
