Digital Planner CRM Toolkit for Sales and Marketing Professionals

The Digital Planner CRM Toolkit is a handwritten sales planning system for reMarkable and Supernote devices. It includes a Client Board to track account details and a six-stage pipeline covering Prospecting, Qualifying, Pitch, Value Proposition, Why Buy, and Objectives -- no software subscription required.
The Digital Planner CRM Toolkit brings a structured sales management system to your reMarkable or Supernote device. Instead of logging into a CRM dashboard, you plan your pipeline by hand -- tracking accounts, contacts, notes, and deal stages the same way you would in a physical planner, but with all the speed and organization of a digital template. This video walks through exactly how the system works.
Branden recorded this walkthrough in July 2020, showing the Client Board layout in detail. The board captures account name, contact information, and notes for each prospect. It also includes a section to document your genuine reason for wanting to work with each customer -- something no software CRM prompts you to think about but that makes a real difference in how you approach a deal. From there, six pipeline containers (Prospecting, Qualifying, Pitch, Value Proposition, Why Buy, and Objectives) give you a visual snapshot of where every relationship stands.
After watching, you will understand how to set up and use the toolkit as a daily sales planning tool. To get the version built for reMarkable and Supernote, visit the Digital CRM Toolkit product page. For a broader look at how digital planners support professional workflows, Key2Success is where Branden's full planning system lives.
Video Transcript
This video is a walkthrough of the Digital Planner CRM Toolkit, a sales planning template designed for digital note-taking devices. Branden Bodendorfer opens by explaining the core idea behind the toolkit: rather than relying on CRM software, sales professionals can manage their pipeline directly on a digital planner using a structured Client Board layout.
The video begins with an overview of the Client Board, which serves as the central page for each prospect or account. The board includes fields for account name, contact information, and open notes. Branden emphasizes the importance of documenting why you are genuinely interested in a customer, explaining that discovering a real alignment -- such as believing in their product or their leadership -- creates motivation that carries you through longer sales cycles.
From there, Branden walks through the six pipeline containers built into the CRM Toolkit: Prospecting, Qualifying, Pitch, Value Proposition, Why Buy, and Objectives. Each container represents a distinct stage in the sales process, and having them visible on a single board lets you see your entire pipeline without switching between tabs or dashboards.
The second half of the video covers how to use the toolkit as a daily planning routine. Branden shows how to move a client from one stage to the next, how to use the notes section to capture key insights from calls and meetings, and how the physical act of writing by hand reinforces memory and commitment to the process. The video closes with a link to purchase the toolkit and a brief overview of how it fits into the broader Key2Success planning system.
