Our Story

Susan is a wife, mom, business owner, runner, planner and reader among other things. She can do all of this with the help of her dotted journal and the occasional glass of red wine. She is the Dotjournal Creative Director in charge of new product development and loves the products so much that her number one challenge is to not buy it all for herself.

Debbie is the reason that all our products actually get to the shelves. She is a go-getting, take-no-nonsense wife, mom, entrepreneur, action cricket cheerleader and coffee-aficionado. She knows things like which of the 37 types of paper on the South African market will work best for a planner. That is why she is the Dotjournal Operational Director in charge of operations and securing the stock so Susan doesn’t “test” every single item.

Together they are dedicated to bringing you the best quality and most versatile planners, journals and diaries. They believe that a beautiful well-made planner will genuinely make your day better and help you plan, create and innovate your work and personal life to the best of your ability.
