Offer Creation Schedule (Taking you behind the scenes)
♥ SHARING IS CARING! ♥
This is Part 7 of the Divine Download series, Start by mapping out your phases, get clear on your milestones, and build a schedule that works for you. Turning your idea into a finished product requires structure, clarity, and momentum. One of the most practical things you can do after receiving your product idea is to build a simple, realistic product creation schedule. Let me walk you through exactly how I did that when creating my e-commerce business planner.
Step 1: List Your Phases
First, I outlined the major stages of the planner’s creation. For me, that included:
- Research & content strategy
- Template design
- Layout and formatting
- Usability testing
- Final edits & polish
- Uploading and listing it for sale
Step 2: Set Milestones
I established clear milestones within each phase of development. For example, I aimed to design 10 editable templates by the end of Week 1. By Week 2, I shifted focus to layout and formatting, ensuring the first full draft was ready by Week 3. I then allocated Week 4 exclusively for detailed proofreading, feedback incorporation, and final revisions.
Step 3: Allocate Time
Once the milestones were mapped out, I took time to estimate how long each task would realistically take factoring in both creative flow and potential delays. For instance, designing templates required deep focus, so I set aside uninterrupted 2–3 hour blocks. More flexible tasks, like refining layout details or sourcing visuals, were slotted into lighter time windows.
Step 4: Choose Your Tools
For the design and creation of the planner, I used Canva as my primary design platform, I also incorporated high-quality, commercial-use templates from Creative Market to elevate the aesthetic and ensure a professional finish.
Step 5: Build in Buffer Time
You have to account for delays, creative blocks, or unexpected edits. Giving myself extra room prevented burnout and gave me space to produce something high-quality. This planner is now a complete and it guides small business owners on how to plan and launch their online businesses.
