Are you wondering if A5 is the right size for you? You know what? I don’t have the answer, but what I do have is lots of experience with planners and hopefully I can give you lots to think about to help you make up your mind.

I’ve used A5 ring and disc planners, and A5 bookbound planners, and I’ve used all of the other sizes you can get too. Sometimes A5 has been the perfect size, but clearly from my own planner hopping, it’s not always been the case!

I’m mainly talking about ring planners in this video, but lots of the points are applicable to all types of A5 planners. I’m going to take you through a series of things to consider and give you some things to weigh up.

Just a quick spoiler alert though - I don’t think any of the potential problems I’ll mention are dealbreakers - everything has a work-around if you want to make it work for you.
