Do Not Miss Out on This Niche: Part 2
Why Planners Are Perfect for Q3, Q4, and Q1
As we move into the later part of the year, planners become more and more important. They help people organize their lives for the rest of the year and into the new one.
This makes them fantastic gifts, especially as everyone starts planning for a fresh start in the new year. Planners are not just about writing down dates; they help people set goals, stay on track, and feel more in control of their time.
This is why planners are so popular on Amazon, especially around the holidays and the start of a new year.
Creating Your Own Planner
If you want to create your own planner to sell on Amazon, a great way to start is by doing some research.
The Amazon search bar is a powerful tool for this.
For example, when you type in “2025 planner,” you might see suggestions like “2024-2025 homeschool planner.” This shows you what people are currently searching for, and it’s a great way to discover popular niches.
Different Types of Planners You Can Create
There are so many types of planners that you can create. Here are a few examples:
Homeschool Planners: These are designed for parents or teachers who homeschool their children. They help organize lessons, track progress, and plan activities.
Academic Planners: Perfect for students to manage their schoolwork, track assignments, and prepare for exams.
Fitness Planners: These help people track their workouts, meal plans, and fitness goals.
Wedding Planners: For those planning their big day, these planners help keep track of all the details from guest lists to venue bookings.
The 2024-2025 Homeschool Planner Niche
When looking into the “2024-2025 homeschool planner” niche, I found that there are just over 2,000 results on Amazon.
Several of these planners have low Best Seller Rankings (BSR), which means they are selling well.
Also, some of these planners have been released in the past few months, showing that this niche is active and growing. This makes it a great niche to consider if you’re thinking about creating your own planner.
Researching to Create the Best Planner
Before creating your planner, it's important to research what customers are saying about existing planners.
Look at the interior pages and read customer reviews.
What do people love about these planners? What do they wish was better? By understanding what customers are happy about and where there’s room for improvement, you can create a planner that stands out.
Using Canva to Create Your Planner
Once you have an idea of what your planner should include, you can use Canva to design it.
Canva is a great tool because it offers many interior templates that you can use as a starting point.
You can customize these templates to create your own unique planner interior and cover.
Just make sure you make enough changes to ensure your planner is unique and not just a copy of something else.
Uploading Your Planner to Amazon KDP
After you’ve created your planner, the next step is to upload it to Amazon KDP. This is the platform that allows you to sell your planner on Amazon.
Once it’s uploaded, I recommend running an automatic ad campaign to help get traffic to your planner.
Ads can help more people find your planner, which can lead to more sales.
Here’s a helpful video that explains how to set up an ad campaign for your planner.
