Is Digital Planner Design Lab Right for You? Here's Who It's For

I want to be upfront about something: Digital Planner Design Lab isn't for everyone. There are people it's a perfect fit for and people who probably aren't ready for it yet. I'd rather help you figure out which one you are than have you enroll and feel like it wasn't what you expected.

Who It's For

You love digital planning and have thought about making your own planner. Maybe you've been using GoodNotes for years and you're curious how the planners you use are actually made. Maybe you've already tried to build something in Canva and hit a wall — something I talk about in the best apps for creating digital planners in 2026. Maybe you just know you want to learn this and you're looking for the right place to start.

You want to sell digital products. Digital Planner Design Lab is designed with a commercial outcome in mind. The skills you'll learn — master pages, data merge, hyperlinking, professional PDF export — are the skills that produce sellable, professional-quality planners. If you want to design for personal use only, the course will still teach you a lot, but the investment makes the most sense if selling is part of your goal. (Curious what that looks like? Read how digital planner designers make money on Etsy.)

You're ready to learn new software. The course covers both Adobe InDesign and Affinity. You don't need prior experience with either, but you do need to be willing to put in the time to learn. This isn't a passive watching experience — it's a doing experience.

You want structured, step-by-step training. If you've tried to piece things together from scattered YouTube tutorials and free blog posts and it hasn't worked, Digital Planner Design Lab gives you a clear, logical path from start to finish. No hunting for the next step. No wondering if you're doing it right. Here's exactly what's inside, section by section.

Who It's Probably Not For (Yet)

If you're not sure you're interested in digital planning at all. This is a specialized course. If you're just exploring whether digital products are something you want to pursue, spend some time with free content first and see if the topic genuinely excites you.

If you're looking for a get-rich-quick path. Building a digital product business takes time. The skills you learn in this course will set you up to create products worth selling, but the selling part still requires effort, consistency, and patience.

What You'll Walk Away With

By the end of Digital Planner Design Lab, you'll know how to design a complete, professional digital planner from scratch — with working hyperlinks, properly structured navigation, and a file that's ready to sell on Etsy, your Shopify store, or wherever you choose.

The kind of finished, sellable planner you'll be able to create on your own.

You'll have the skills to keep creating new planners, update existing ones for new years, and build out a product catalog over time.

How I Built a Digital Planner Business from Scratch (And What I'd Do Differently)

I started KDigitalStudio in November 2018. At the time, the digital planner space barely existed. GoodNotes was gaining traction, the iPad Pro was starting to feel like a real creative tool, and a small but growing community of people was...
