What press release or brochure did this come from?[edit]

"Because of its overall design, the Franklin-Covey system lends itself perfectly to being a tickler file, as well as a long-range planner." WTF?

Proposed Deletion June 2010[edit]

The unsigned proposal for deletion seems not to understand that this is not software but a physical product (similar to the FiloFax) that was heavily marketed to the government and corporate sectors. Although Franklin-Covey made most of their money through seminar fees and expanded to sell a variety of physical goods and software that supplemented the planner, its notability is the way it introduced and standardized time management techniques well before PIM software did so. The Franklin Planner was the dominant physical product that inspired software such as Outlook and Claris Organizer, which directly led to products such as the Palm Pilot. This article should clearly be a KEEP. Rorybowman (talk) 14:34, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarifications. I got confused because the product got listed in List of personal information managers which has been so far only about software applications, and usually when I can't find any article about an app on Google, it means it's not notable. Obviously since in this case it's not an app, it's different and Google hits don't mean much. Laurent (talk) 10:20, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
