HOW IT WORKS
This planner is designed to help you make the absolute most out of your dollars!
STEP 1: SET UP YOUR PLANNER
To keep you organized, we highly recommend you add tabs to your planner. Tabs will help you jump back and forth between goal pages, debt trackers and weekly and monthly tracking! Get familiar with the planner and determine how you want to customize it to fit your needs.
*Note: When you click the links in this post, we may receive a commission at no extra cost to you.
- Monthly Tabs – Add these to your Month At A Glance pages in your planner so you can easily find the month you're looking for!!
- Holographic Tabs – These sturdy tabs add a gorgeous shimmer and sparkle to your planner!
- Metallic Tabs – Versatile, writeable, repositionable tabs… these are awesome.
- Geometric Tabs – These mini tabs are great for using throughout your planner to mark pages you reference often.
In addition to tabs, I also use a magnetic bookmark to keep track of my weekly spending! This helps you jump right to it instead of flipping through pages. Here are my favorites:
STEP 2: SET YOURSELF UP FOR SUCCESS
As you're getting started, you'll have a chance to map out your goals and financial dreams! What do you want to see your dollars accomplish this year? It's time to make it a reality. Are you hoping to pay down debt? Or hit a major savings goal? Either way, use the corresponding trackers to help you knock your goals outta the park!
Once your specific goals are set, you can focus in on your budget! Make sure you work together with your partner to divide and conquer and set your weekly budget. Once the budget is set, you can easily track your spending each week and make sure that you're making progress towards your goals!
STEP 3: WEEKLY WEIGH IN
Once you get to the monthly and weekly budgeting/expense pages, stay consistent! Choose one day per week as your “budget planner day.” Sit down, make sure you fill everything out, and stay on top of your finances. This will also be your “Weekly Weigh-In Day” for you to sit down with your partner and fill out that page. Trust us—the budgeting process is so much easier if you chip away at it little by little, rather than letting it pile up and getting behind!
STEP 4: TRACK YOUR SPENDING
Use the envelopes! We've included 12 stunning envelopes to help you keep track. Plus, weekly spending tracking pages To track your expenses regularly!
This planner is not intended to be carried around with you everywhere…but the envelopes are! Use them as a simple way of tracking your week-to-week spending. Watch the video below to learn more about our spin on the envelope system.
MORE PRO TIPS TO HELP YOU BECOME A FINANCIAL PRO
A few reminders to ensure success!
Do this together. If you are sharing finances, sit down and make this a team effort. Two heads are better than one, after all!
Make your weekly money date night fun! Something to look forward to… always have a treat or something special that you do to celebrate discussing your finances.
Set both small short-term goals and bigger long-term goals! Make sure to reward yourself along the way to help you stay motivated. However, make sure that you are smart with your rewards so you don't erase your progress.
BUDGET PLANNER FAQ
Can I begin using The Budget Planner at any time, or do I need to wait for the first of the month?
You can start any time! Start filling out the planner for your current month. You'll want to stay on track once you get started, but you can start at any point in the year.
