A professional notebook is the perfect addition to a busy lifestyle, helping you manage responsibilities across work and home. Keeping a professional notebook in your bag or at your desk also ensures that when creativity strikes, you have a high-quality notebook on hand to write down your best ideas.
What Kind of Professional Notebook Should You Buy?
When considering what kind of professional notebook to purchase, it’s important to ask yourself certain questions: What kind of binding is preferred? What size business notebook will work best? Will a wide-ruled, Cornell-ruled, or a different style of professional notebook be the most useful? The good news is that no matter what kind of professional notebook you decide on, Staples has you covered.
You could choose from a variety of small 3.5” x 5.5” professional notebooks and notepads. This type of professional notebook would be perfect to carry around in your pocket or a small bag and would be ideal for someone who needs to jot down sudden ideas or notes. If you need a larger professional notebook, don’t worry. There are also business notebooks as big as 11” x 9”, which would be the perfect professional notebook for large sketches, diagrams, graphs, or extensive notes. There are also standard 8.5” x 11” (US letter) professional notebooks and notepads and 5” x 8.25” professional notebooks and notepads, which are large enough to use for writing or drawing, while still small enough to store in a backpack or binder.
As a professional notebook is ideal for storing all your ideas, pitches, and notes in the same place, it’s important to have enough pages to do so. It’s also important that your business notebooks are thin enough to slide into your bag or pocket. Luckily, the page counts for office notebooks range from 40 to 150, which means you can easily find the perfect size and page count for you.
Executive notebooks can come with additional features that should be taken into account as well. You can find a professional notebook with perforated pages or without, softcover or hardcover, wire-bound or glued. You can even expect to find professional notebooks with add-ons like a bookmark or a handy strap to keep the notebook shut while traveling.
What are the Benefits of Using a Professional Notebook?
Professional notebooks offer the chance to write down notes, thoughts, and ideas, allowing them to stick better in your memory, and to be safely stored for later. A professional notebook is an ideal choice for work, as it’s the perfect place to keep track of assignments and feedback, organize projects, take notes, keep up with deadlines, and follow an agenda. Above all, a professional notebook offers a level of sleek design, found both in the cover, the binding, and the additional features available, that you won’t often find with many other types of notebooks.
Professional notebooks are also exceptionally versatile, and these popular office notebooks don’t have to be all about business. You can use business or executive notebooks to keep track of household or home office tasks as well, such as making daily lists or jotting down important reminders.
