In July, The Bloggers Crowd released their first Blogger Pack, an organizational tool for bloggers. I saw their advertisement on Insta Stories and jumped at the chance to check out their product for bloggers. Luckily, Abbie sent it over quickly! I was quite impressed with the PDF I was sent. You could tell a lot of hard work went into designing this blogger pack. First, I will list what was included in the pack then I’ll share my thoughts.
The TBC Blogger Pack contained:
- 2 prints
- a daily planning page
- blog post planner
- 12 monthly planners which helps you organize
events, birthdays, notes, and goals
As a part-time blogger who works 40-50 hours a week, I try to be as organized as possible. I try to plan when I do blogging work as well as what I am going to post. I am a newbie blogger who launched in May, so I haven’t really gotten into a routine yet. I aim to post every week, but sometimes that just doesn’t happen; I am working on being more self-disciplined when it comes to blogging. Due to my inability to stay on top of blogging tasks, I jumped at the chance to review this blogger pack. I mean…who doesn’t want to be more organized???
Upon first opening the blogger pack, I was impressed with the quality of graphics . I don’t know how people produce such adorable and fun prints!! The title page (first photograph) immediately grabs your attention with the funky lettering and zigzags. I absolutely love their logo! The mix between cursive and all-caps is perfectly on trend. The 2 prints I received (pictured above and below) are definitely empowering and motivating, which is a necessity! My favorite is the “Get Shit Done” print because I routinely say this in my day-to-day life and because I LOVE me some coffee! I plan on framing this and putting it by my laptop. I think it will motivate me to stop procrastinating and give me the much-needed kick up the arse!
The blog post planner is so cute! I am not typically a pink-loving person, but I adore the coral/pink colors used. Again, I love the fonts used. Layout-wise, this page works well. There is a space for the title of the post at the top. On the left, one can list photographs needed; on the right, one can ensure they include all the links needed. A notes section is provided for any other information needed, and finally a space for when the post will be posted can be found at the bottom of the page. I especially like the “going live” part because I think it would help me stick to a time frame if I write it down and continue to look while working towards completion. This planning page aids bloggers in managing their blog posts. As you can see, I already have started planning my next blog post; this will be a review of Which Beauty Box’s first curation. I can’t wait to start ticking items off my to-do list! This page is my favorite organizational tool from this blogger pack and I can see myself continuing to use it.
Next, I found a “What Am I Doing Today?” page. Even though I am not so organized when it comes to blogging (yet), I am incredibly organized in my day-to-day life. Therefore, I did not find this page particularly useful because I am obsessed with my daily Every Day Matters planner. I believe that this planning page would be useful for someone who doesn’t routinely use a planner. One can manage a to-do list, record their food/exercise, take notes, schedule blog posts, and keep themselves motivated with a “looking forward to” section.
Next, I found 12 monthly overview pages; notice the different images in the top right corners. I am a detail-oriented person and love small touches like that. I filled mine out for August and it made me feel excited and organized, which are amazing feelings! I find that when I write down everything I have going on, I am more motivated and better with time management. I love the coral colors and layout. I especially like how I can incorporate both my private, work, and blogging life into one planning tool. I can see myself using these for the rest of the year.
I hope you enjoyed reading what I truly thought about The Blogger Crowd’s blogger pack. I thoroughly enjoyed receiving and reviewing this product, especially because it’s something I can use to increase my productivity. I want to say thank you to TBC for giving me this opportunity and being patient with me. I believe TBC will be releasing a finalized blogger pack, so be sure to follow them for updates. Hint: they often post amazing opportunities on their Insta Stories so watch that space!!
I loved this post! I think that this was really helpful for people who were trying to decide whether to make that purchase or not! I think this packet was super cute, and I hope that it helps you in your blogging journey xxx

Those monthly planning pages are wonderful! I tend to use my Notes app/a little notebook to plan posts, which means my blog posts are often sort of spur of the moment and haphazard. I’ll start a post and then let it sit in drafts for ages. This kit is such a lovely all in one planning aid!
