Create ready-to-publish journals, planners and other “cash earning” low content books, in 5 minutes or less? (All pre-formatted and ready to upload to Amazon and/or Etsy?)
That is the claim made by our friends and book publishing experts Amy Harrop and Debbie Drum. Together, they have just released their latest… a brand new online software called ‘Plug and Play Journals’ and it’s fantastic!
First, it’s online so there’s nothing to download!… Second, it’s super easy to use!
And this software re-release couldn’t come at a better time!…
Demand for “Journals & Planners” and other low content books (workbooks, diaries, logbooks…) is exploding! (Both on Amazon & Etsy) and this upward sales trend is expected to continue into 2021 and beyond!
Just go to Etsy and enter “printable planners” or “printable journals” and see for yourself! Ordinary people are making fortunes in this niche!
What if you could create these low content books in… 5 minutes or less?
And get them immediately for sale on Etsy and/or Amazon making you cash money 24/7?
And this is easy to scale up!… Want more cash?… Create and upload more books!…This software makes it faster and easier than ever before!
We put this software through its paces… Here is our review of this excellent “point & click” book creation tool (and training!)…
FYI – Amy & Deb include full video tutorials plus other bonus training material making this good even for complete newbies.
Let’s start with what we like about “Plug and Play Journals”…
1. Easy to use! The software is very simple, fast and intuitive!
2. It is cloud based (i.e. online) so nothing to download!
3. You can save your work at any time and go back to it later! (note: the creation process is so quick, you may well never use this feature!)
4. You can specify the size of your journal or planner (6”X9” is popular because this size fits easily into a pocket!).
5. You can add page borders, taking your journals/planners instantly to the next level with just a click of the mouse!
6. Outputs in multiple formats (MS Word or PowerPoint!)
7. You can create journals/planners etc. either as whole books for sale on Amazon KDP, or create individual printable PDF pages for sale on Etsy!
8. No formatting headaches with Amazon KDP! The software formats everything automatically!
9. Once outputted, you can still modify or add material to your journals right in MS Word (or PowerPoint) as you please!
10. Amy & Deb include short easy to follow tutorial videos on how to do all of the above! (including adding material after outputting).
What we don’t like About “Plug and Play Journals”
1. Can’t add a “book cover” inside the software…
But, this isn’t a problem because Amy & Deb have you covered!
1. They include a section on creating covers
2. They reveal a free tool that can generate any size template for you, and
3. You can use Canva (also free!) to easily create your covers! (Just Google “canva create kdp cover” (or similar) to get tons of tutorials on this).
4. Amy & Deb also include a step by step PDF explaining how to upload your cover to Amazon KDP!
Of course, if you are only selling on Etsy, you won’t need to bother with “book covers” but… if and when you are ready to also sell on Amazon KDP, the info is there for you!
OK so let’s get into the specifics!
What exactly is “Plug and Play Journals”?…

We always get asked about upgrades/OTO’s/upsells;
Please note, Plug and Play Journals is a total ‘stand alone’ product and is all you need to make money. There are some optional upgrades however and if you have the budget, they are well worth picking up!
Optional Upgrade 1: Low Content Live
In-depth training to help you plan and market your journals and planners for $37
These types of books virtually sell themselves but if you are interested in maximizing your profits, this is a terrific add-on!
STOP PRESS buyer testimonial just added;
“I just purchased the advanced training. From taking a quick look inside, there’s a LOT more than I expected to receive for $37.00. I noticed towards the end of the training, in the bonus section there is a session with someone named Alice Seba. Never heard of her. So, a quick search shows she is a big deal in the self-publishing niche. Will be interesting to learn what she offers in the training that I can take to the bank.
Whatever she brings, I’m sure it won’t be fluff.”
Robert Vincent Blake, Philadelphia
Optional Upgrade 2: Plug and Play Journals Developer’s Licence
Gives you the right to use Plug and Play Journals on client projects too! $47
This is only worthwhile if you plan to create books for other sellers as well as yourself.
