Createful Courses:
 "Turn Your Templates Into Ready To - Sell Journals & Planners" 

Do you have a mound of journal and planner templates that you purchased with great intentions, but are now just collecting digital dust on your hard drive?

You may have even opened up your templates, ready to edit them, and then just got stuck in the process! 

If this sounds familiar how would you like support in the way of A Step by Step Course to facilitate the process of editing your journals & planners, and actually getting them up for sale on your website? 

If you want to learn how to brand & edit your journals, planners and printable, you're in the right place. For the past 2 years I've self-taught myself how to create all types of journals, planners and printables. I tried various formats and finally settled on using PowerPoint.


I love PowerPoint because it's much easier to change colors, create tables and charts and move things around, compared to Word or Excel.  


In fact, I have been having so much fun that I created a brand new website based on journals and planners. Createful Journals was launched in November of 2017 and the sales have been amazing.  As has the customer feedback. 


One recurring issue from customers was that they would love to know how to easily edit and brand my journals and planners to create a new product that they could sell from their website. 


This is exactly why I am launching this brand new course. Turning Your Content into Ready to Sell Journals & Planners.


This course will be self-paced with lessons that you can easily apply in your spare time. I am including lots of tips, shortcuts and the exact methods I use to create all my journals, planners & printables. 

Here's How My New Course Can Help You…
and How You, Too, Can Start Profiting With Your Content

No more staring at a journal template, wondering the best way to change colors, add your own images or move pages around. You'll be able to design unique journals that fit your brand perfectly, no-one will ever know you used a template to create them!

What our customers are saying about our products:

"Thank you for this great course...

Today my proof from amazon arrived and in fact it is black and white it is either just beautiful and special.
I think I could never create a journal like this without your tips and tricks and your professional way to teach us how to use the software to make our own creations, instead of copy and paste premade templates.

Thank you, Sue!

"I was delighted to discover Sue's PowerPoint course...

She provides exceptional, easy-to-understand training on how to use PowerPoint as a tool for creating digital products as well as print journals and planners.

I am so grateful to be able to refer my authors to Sue's course as they are able to easily become proficient in PowerPoint, a skill that many authors need to master. This course is also fantastic for graphic designers who want to create attractive products."

Dvorah Lansky//  ShareYourBrilliance.com

Thank you for your amazing course, Sue!

I have been looking for exactly what you are teaching for a long time and when I came across it – by accident, through a helpful post you had in your blog – I couldn’t believe my eyes! You are teaching everything I’ve wanted to learn since I started publishing journals. So far, they’ve been good but have had quite unexciting interior. I was trying to learn how to do create nice background images, for example and wasn’t finding the right information.


This is when I came to your blog and discovered real gems on your website. I love the way you teach it – in a calm, step-by-step, easy-to-understand manner. I cannot be happier and am getting even more excited as I going through the modules. I already have a few ideas on how I can use what I am learning, and I am only on module 2. Cannot wait to get to the other ones!


And you probably don’t know this but the way you teach is a tutorial within a tutorial for people wanting to create and teach their own courses on whatever subject they fancy. I’ve known you for some time – just wish I’d known what you did so that I could start learning this much earlier! ?

I use Google's suite of products for designing and building planners and journals so far...

and I'm very much a newbie. Despite the fact that Sue's course uses Microsoft's PowerPoint, the course is still incredibly useful. In fact, it made me consider buying the PowerPoint product for myself since that offers a few things that Google Slides doesn't. However, the products are close enough that I've been able to make this work quite well.

This course is perfect for someone like me because it teaches the design aspect, along with how and where to sell your final products. So many courses only show you one or the other. We also get to learn about more than one place to sell our planners/journals, so added bonus!

I find Sue's voice soothing and easy to listen to and understand. The instructions for each video are simple, without backtracking on which thing to do first. Yet, you also learn the various way to do one thing (in appropriate cases).

I've taken other courses that didn't explain the process as clearly and required other expensive or complicated software to use. This course is worth every penny for its simplicity and ease of use. Again, even though I don't use PowerPoint, but use something similar, I was able to get great value out of the instructions in this course.

JENN BROCKMAN //  www.jennyjournals.com 

I loved this training...

Sue has made a wonderful step by step course to take you through making your own journals. She makes creating journals easy with her tutorials. The videos are easy to understand and provide a wealth of information. I found the tutorials on using PowerPoint and how to create and design your products invaluable. Once you learn the basic designing and creating of journals, I was excited to see Sue move on to teaching different options for selling your journals and planners as well as how to market them.

Another bonus I loved was not only having the video tutorials, but pdf guides and downloadable templates for practicing.

I enjoyed the course!

DEBBIE MADSON  //  Color Me Red Journals

I love this course!

I’ve been procrastinating on creating journals for ages, thinking it would just be too hard and too time-consuming a task. Just the thought of making all those lines by hand in PhotoShop had me wanting to hide in a corner! All that changed when I started going through Sue’s course.

Going through the modules of this course, I learned more about using PowerPoint than I ever thought possible. I’m impressed with its capabilities and with Sue’s ability to highlight the functions you need to create visually stunning journals and planners. I love that she not only teaches you how to build journals from templates and from scratch, but that she’s also included several lessons on how to sell your journals on your own website and on the various platforms.

Sue’s voice is easy to listen to, and her teaching style is clear and concise. It’s easy to follow along with the instructions and create your first journal while you’re taking the course.  The videos themselves are short enough that you won’t get overwhelmed by the information. I’ve taken a few journal creation courses over the past little while, and Sue’s course is my favorite both in terms of material covered, and how easy it is to actually complete a project and get it published. 


RUTH BOWERS  //  Coloring Book Author - RuthBowers.com

Sue has created a new course...

in designing and implementing journals perfect for the newbie and anyone interested in a refresher course with PowerPoint. Sue's course is very hands on and quite easy to understand and follow along. There is even valuable information on the printers and selling platforms used by creators. The course left me with a fresh sense of confidence and commitment to embark on this new journey. Thank you Sue for your willingness to share your knowledge!
