enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

This has been BY FAR my longest runway to launch but it’s also miles more legit than anything I’ve done. Even the prototype that I shot for this pre-order is amazing. The real book?! It’s going to be spectacular.

You can head over to gettoworkbook.com to see more photos, watch the 7 minute walk-through video, learn about book specs, see digital page layouts and (if you’re into it) order your copy.

The first version covers July 2015 – June 2016, costs $55 USD and ships worldwide in early June. (There will absolutely be a 2016 version. And a July 2016 – June 2017. And 2017… you get the idea.)

BONUS : if you pre-order in the first week (through April 8), you’ll get a free 5×7 print (shown above) with your book as a special thank you.

I am so grateful for your support and excitement for this project so far. It’s always amazing to turn an idea into reality but this book there is something extra special about this book and my plans for this new brand. If you’re so inclined, I would LOVE it if you shared a link to this post or to gettoworkbook.com with your facebook friends, pinterest followers, twitter audience, linkedin contacts, real life friends(?), plants, pets and family members. The more eyeballs I get on this, the better.

Thank you.

Seriously.

Thank you.

Now GO! GET TO WORK!

It’s so gorgeous.
I’m waiting for the 2016 version. As my life goes in a calendar year.
But if I was an accountant in Australia I’d totally get this version as it would be our financial year.
I love it. You put so much useful thought into it.

Yay, Elise!! I just placed my pre-order and am thrilled to be supporting you by purchasing such an exciting product. You’ve heard it before, but you’ve created something special with this that I’m sure will be a springboard for many great things within your Get To Work Book line.
I’ve enjoyed following this journey and look forward to all that is to come!
Yay! All the congrats!

Congratulations on your beautiful planner! I am using the “Simplified Planner” this year but finding it does not quite work for me as it lacks space to write down ideas and work out goals. I am definitely planning to get the “Get to Work” book for 2016!

Dänemark könnte ich anbieten. Die Extrakosten fürs weitersenden übernehm ich natürlich, wenn ihr mich dabei haben wollt.

The Get to Work Book is truly gorgeous! Every design decision was so thoughtfully made. Just looking at the beautiful pages is inspiring me to want to have projects to plan! 🙂 You may turn some of us who are planning-challenged into planning pros!

Hi Elise! I was excited for your project and launch just from watching you grow over the years and how excited you have been, but honestly was not planning on purchasing the Get To Work Book as I felt that I didn’t have a need for it. But now I am completely sold and just pre-ordered my copy! If you’re keeping any sort of statistics on how consumers will be using your planner, I plan on using mine at work for Food Safety Projects. The facility I manage gets Audited at the end of May, so starting the GTWB in July is perfect as I can start scheduling and planning all of my deadlines and mini projects carrying me over up until the next Audit. I believe that the GTWb will help keep me on task! Thanks!

Love it! At over $100 Australian (inc shipping) for a planner, no can do though. Looking forward to future (hopefully more reasonably priced) versions. The design is gorgeous!

Hi!
Just wanted to stop in to say that I just pre-ordered — I’m a grad student working on my PhD and this seems like the perfect way to get through my dissertation in a happy, productive way! Just thought I would share how widely this applies. Great work! It’s been awesome to follow the progress!

Totally get you regarding the shipping costs! This is a thick book, so it is what it is, but that’s why a few of us readers will be be ordering together from Germany/Europe (see above). Maybe something like this makes sense for you, too? Just a thougt 🙂

Love the multiple options for calendar year start dates. People on an academic schedule know that the real new year begins in August. The January through December calendar is just a hoax. The planner looks awesome, Elise. Good work!

I really like the design and the many ways to use this planner. Very well thought out so great job! To my the only downside is the price. I think it is a little steep for a planner. Not trying to burst your bubble at all, just some consumer feedback.

This is so SO lovely!!! I literally JUST bought a new planner to take me through the end of 2015, but I plan on ordering your 2016 version once it’s available. I will share on my blog next week with my post about the little things that make my life/business easier. Having a TANGIBLE “to-do” or planner is an absolute key for keeping me organized. I wish you all the best with the launch!!

I would sew or fold a plastic cover (or transparent oil cloth) for it if I used it daily and had it in a hand bag! Or craft a tote in fabric for bag storage… Just an idea. 🙂

This looks amazing and it’s so amazing all the work and planning that you’ve put into this! While I would love to get my hands on my own, I have to agree with a few other commenters that I already have my 2015 book and don’t want to leave it half finished. And Kelcey’s point above rings true for me as well. Over $70 for a planner, even as beautiful and wonderful as this, is a bit steep. However: I wish you all th best and can’t wait to see what the next one will look like!

Sadly I’m waiting for the 2016 version, which right now feels so far away! Will the next one have the same art prints for the year out calendar pages, or will there be different ones? And if they will be different, would consider selling the pdf of just the July to December calendar pages to hold us over until the new year? Just something I’ve been thinking about the last few days. So excited for you for this adventure!!!

LOVE this!!! I’m so excited for you, and have loved watching this evolve!
Do you have any plans for a non-calendar version? I love the concept of working towards achieving goals in manageable steps and use currently use notebooks with ridiculous amounts of lists/charts/checklists, but I don’t use a paper calendar…Do you have any future plans for a version that keeps this seem ‘get to work’ mantra, without the calendar backdrop?
