Meet Excellent Planners

Most planners are just digital paper. Excellent Planners are automated engines. We create minimalist, high-performance Google Sheets designed for those who value their time as much as their results. Are you building a business or mapping your path to financial freedom? Our tools provide the clarity you need to execute with precision.

Hello, I’m Zach!

Welcome to Excellent Planners.

Expertise You Can Trust

With a background in Statistics and Communication, and over 13 years of spreadsheet design experience, I have created the best automated Google Sheets trackers and planners for you. I mean, what good is a complex Google Sheets tool if it takes weeks for you to understand and use it? While the backend of every Excellent Planners product is powered by complex, high-level automation, the user interface is intuitive and effortless.

Financial order is the foundation of personal peace

Planning your life, your goals, and your net worth, is an act of self-care.

I don’t just sell these Google Sheets trackers, I use them daily. I am currently using my Annual budget planner and net worth tracker to track my own journey toward a $2.5M retirement portfolio by 2030.

Built for Everyone. Powered by Automation

FAQ

Absolutely not. While the backend is built on complex Google Sheets Formulas and high-level automation, the user interface is designed to be intuitive and effortless. If you can type a number into a cell, the system does the rest of the work for you.

You aren’t buying from a hobbyist; you are buying over a decade of technical rigor. I have been mastering spreadsheet architecture and Excel since 2013. Every product is an automated system built with mathematical integrity and refined through years of professional experience to ensure your data is accurate and your experience is effortless.

None. One of the primary reasons I use Google Sheets for my tools is to save you from the “subscription fatigue” of modern apps. When you purchase an EP product, you own it for life. There are no monthly fees, no hidden “pro” tiers, and no extra software costs.

While every tool is built to be intuitive and user-friendly, I am here to help if you get stuck or have a question. Every purchase includes clear setup instructions, and you can always reach out via our Contact page if you have a specific question about your tracker.

Because Excellent Planners sells digital products that are delivered instantly upon purchase, we generally do not offer returns. However, if you encounter a technical issue, we are committed to making it right.
