OUR ACTIVITIES, EVENTS & HOLIDAYS

We’re continuing our series on the best agendio features. Today we look at activities, events and holidays.

With an agendio, you have full flexibility and control over what activities, events and holidays appear in your planner and also where they appear.

Events

You can enter all your personal and family events and we will include them in your planner.

We will save your list for the following year, so when you buy again from us, you will not have to re-input all your information, as you do with store-bought planners.

Activities

At agendio, you can not only create a custom list of your activities, but you can choose from more than a dozen options for how often to show them, such as every week, once a month on day x, on the last day of the month, and many others.

Holidays

Most planners show only a small number of standard national and religious holidays. Agendio maintains a huge list of all national national and religious holidays from around the world, and also offers lists of state, provincial and other holidays, as well as observances, so you can customize your planner to suit your affiliations. 

You can add your selections by country, by type within a country or add and remove individual holidays one at a time. You can also add full or partial lists from religions or even individual religious holidays. It’s up to you.

Content Display

Once you create custom lists of your activities, events and holidays, you can also choose on which pages to print them in your planner. You can choose to show them on any combination of monthly, weekly or daily pages.

Next time you’re in the Builder, explore all our activities, events and holidays options, make your choices and we’ll take care of the rest.

OUR EXCLUSIVE FEATURES

It’s been nine years since Agendio brought it’s industry-leading customizing focus to the world of agenda planners. In that time we’ve introduced dozens of great, exclusive features.

Unfortunately, many of you weren’t part of the Agendio family at the time we introduced them. In case you’re in that group, we’d like to introduce you to them. And if you were around, then we’d like to re-familiarize you with them, in case some of the features are new to you.

So, over the next few months, we’ll be sending a small series of emails to shine a light on these features. As we start off the series, we thought we’d recap the basics:

Paper thickness

All Agendio planners, inserts and notebooks are printed on our highest quality, optimally smooth smudge-resistant white paper. We offer three thicknesses – 120, 105 and 90 gsm, and all our paper is Acid-Free FSC® certified / Rainforest Alliance Certified™ / SFI® Certified from sustainably managed forests.

Page size

We offer seven page sizes: Large/letter, medium and journal for planners, and letter, medium, A5, Classic, personal and compact for inserts.

Frequency

We offer three page frequencies: Monthly, weekly and daily and you can select one, two or all the frequencies, from a simple monthly to a Monthly-weekly-daily.

Planner start date and duration

You can start your planner on any day of the year and it can last from three to twelve months.

Covers

We offer more than 150 designs of spiral cover, many with multiple colour options, and 17 sizes of coil to bind your planner so your binding will always be the correct size. We also offer a dozen colours of eco-leather wrap covers.

That’s just the beginning of what you get when you purchase an agendio.

MORE EXTRA PAGE IDEAS

We see so many great ideas in the agendios we produce that we’d like to share some with you this fall. Today we’re featuring two practical pages that come in handy at this time of year:

The first is very specific to Agendio, since our planners are so customizable: Sara made a page to list the changes she wants to make when customizing her next agendio. It’s easier to write down your ideas during the year while you use your agendio than to try to remember all your ideas when your planner is running out, and this simple page does that very well. Consider also adding a blank page next to it to sketch an idea or two.

The second page is a seasonal idea that we see often, a page to track cards and gifts. This one was made by Max to track what he gave last year, what he received last year and what he is sending this year. The page is made from a Flex-table Extra page, so it has the advantage that you can choose the number of columns, set the column widths and also choose if you want lines, what kind of lines and the line spacing.

What Extra page designs would help you keep track of the easily-forgotten details in your life?

As always, let us know if you have any questions.

AGENDIO NOTEBOOKS

We see so many great ideas in the agendios we produce that we’d like to share some with you this fall.

At this time of the year, most customers are focused on our fully customizable planners and inserts. But many customers order notebooks, and some customers order both.

So today we’re featuring a great Notebook focused on gardening. Our customer Beth created a variety of useful pages, including some for seeding, tracking each crop and even for designing her next garden layout.

Whether you run a farm or you’re a hobby gardener, or if you’ll be using your notebook for something else, you’ll be putting your notebook to use sooner than you think. And if you are a hobby gardener, what better time to think about planting and harvesting food than Thanksgiving?

Which hobbies or interests in your life would be easier to manage with a custom agendio notebook?

NEW DECORATIVE ELASTICS

We have just added some beautiful new decorative elastics.

For those of you who are not yet familiar with them, they are stylish elastics featuring a metal charm attached to a high quality black elastic.

They’re not attached to your planner, so you can use them year after year as long as you buy the same size planner.

We have added five new models, including a feather and a triskelion (If you don’t know what a triskelion is, you can see it and all the other new decorative elastics on our website in the features section.

HOW MANY SIZES OF SPIRALS?

Did you know that Agendio stocks 17 different sizes of spirals in its inventory?

It’s more than other planner companies carry, but it’s important to us to know that no matter how you customize your agendio, your binding will always fit perfectly.

And if you want us to use a bigger size of spiral because you use stickers or you fill your planner pockets to bursting, you can ask for your spiral to be upsized by up to three sizes.

STUFF I USUALLY FORGET

We often see interesting Extra pages created in our Builder, and I wanted to share a recent one with you: Stuff I usually forget.

The idea is to include one or two pages in your agendio on which you write all the little things that you often forget, because there isn’t a good place to keep track of them.

For example:

  • Who is on your home alarm contact list and when you last updated it
  • Where the house water shut off valve is
  • Where the passports are
  • Who you have lent things to and when

What have you forgotten that you wished you had written down? Tell us and we’ll see if we can assemble a page to help remember those details.

UPSIZE YOUR SPIRAL BINDING

Do you keep many loose sheets of paper in your agendio? Do you glue stickers in your planner?


If you do, then we have good news for you: We’ve improved our spiral upsizing options: We now offer three sizes of upsizing, from +1/8” to +3/16”. They are available in the Builder, on the accessories screen.


If you prefer having your agendio bound with a bigger diameter spiral, you can now add even more space. In particular, if you add stickers to all or most of your pages, we strongly suggest that you upsize, since your planner will become much thicker as you add your stickers.


Please note that spiral binding upsizing is not available with wrap covers.


Please note also that if your planner is already at the maximum spiral diameter, it will not be possible to increase the size of your spiral.

HIGHLIGHTED EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES

You can now add highlights to your events and activities!

You can highlight birthdays, paydays, garbage day, practice, or any other event or activity you don’t want to miss.

Do you forget to pay credit card or utility bills? Did you forget your last anniversary? Highlights might help.

text-highlighting

We have created four highlight colours (yellow, blue, green and pink) so you can find one you like best, or assign different highlight colours to different labels.

highlight-web

To try out the highlights feature, start another agendio or edit an existing one, and go to the events or activities screens, and you’ll see the option in the first column.

NEW COVERS!

We just added thirty-one new customizable covers, in a wide variety of designs and colors.

One of our new categories features our “weave” patterns: We combine a few colours as if in a weave, to give an effect similar to a plain cover, but with more texture.

new-covers

There are other new categories, including dunes, curves and animals.

You can see all our new covers in the Builder, on the covers page, mixed in with the existing covers.
