Happy Thursday!

It’s another chilly, damp, and grey day here in Central Ontario, and I’m not above whining a little bit that the lack of sunlight over the past week is really doing a number on my energy levels.

I think it was Dr. Wayne Dyer who said “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”

And I’m kind of paraphrasing on that today, because of a conversation I had with my good buddy Val Selby this morning, to say…

When you change the way you look at things, you get a whole new perspective on what could be!

So what does that have to do with you?

Easy…

It means that I’ve changed a few things about how my upcoming bundle is being run, because I’m looking at it in a whole different way right now. And I’m excited to see what happens because of it.

I posted a little earlier today in the Bundle Bash Facebook Group that because I’ve had so many queries from “new to me” PLR providers that I’ve decided to take the limits and the invitation requirement off, and open the doors up to be able to welcome “new to me” people in.

And, I’ve extended the submission deadline date for a few more days to January 18, to give you a little more time to get your products submitted.

Of course, as I mentioned before this is NOT a strictly low-content PLR bundle this time (that’s coming in August with my Birthday Bash). Instead, this bundle is themed around topics of Journaling, Self-Care, and Mindset and you are welcome to submit either a personal use OR a PLR product on those themes, valued at $37 or more.

The one thing I would ask, if you are submitting PLR is that you include some type of guide or training on how best to use your product. We want people to be using their PLR this year and not continuing to let it gather digital dust on their hard drives!

You can find all the details on the updated Contributor’s Page here:

https://ruthbowers.ca/new-year-new-habits-bundle-sale-contributors-info-page/

I will also have the new JV page and affiliate sign up area ready in the next day or two.

That’s my big news for today. So, here’s what else I have for you…

I feel like today’s new releases are kinda like a homecoming week for me, since both Sue and Maureen were a huge inspiration to me to start on this low-content journey! Here’s what they have for you…

New Biz Planning Mastermind from Sue at Createful Journals is a 6-session program that will run from January 11 to April 5.

One of my favourite products of 2022 was Amy Harrop’s Positivity Printables training. If you’re not sure what these are they are products like gratitude journals, affirmations coloring pages, habit trackers, vision boards, etc. Anything really that helps people be more positive and improve their lives. This is my all-time favourite content to create and I’ve spent years making planners and journals to serve the personal development niche.

Amy has updated this training to include a 30 Steps to Printable Success guide, and a set of Affirmation Card templates in both Canva and PPT formats.

Here’s what the main guide covers:

• What positivity printables are and why there is such a big market for them.
• The benefits of positivity products according to science.
• How to identify niches with high popularity and low competition.
• How to evaluate your competitors, including tips on evaluating prices, products, and more.
• Step-by-step instructions to create habit trackers, gratitude journals, positivity and affirmation wall art, and vision board printables.
• Advertising best practices and principles for positivity printables.
• How to position your positivity printable products on Etsy and Amazon.
• Outside-the-box ideas to promote your positivity printable products.
• And much, much more!

And now for my bonus – When this was first launched last year, I did a live workshop on how to create products for the positivity printables market. When you purchase through this link and send me your receipt, I will add the replay and associated extras to your account on Ritchie Media. Be sure to include your username on my site along with your receipt so I can add it for you.
