Everything you want to know before you decide.

Your Questions, Answered

No fluff. No fine print. Just straight answers about what Busy Is My Baseline is, what it isn’t, and exactly what you get when you purchase.

Purchasing & Access

  • Head to busyismybaseline.com and click the 28-Day Meal Prep button. You'll be taken directly to our secure checkout. Once your purchase is complete you'll receive instant access — no waiting, no shipping, no delays. It's yours the moment you buy it.

  • Both versions are available at busyismybaseline.com. The digital app gives you instant access on your phone and computer the moment you purchase. The physical book is a beautifully designed print-on-demand version that tracks one home — perfect if you prefer pen and paper or want a tangible record you can keep with your important home documents. Click the Home Tracker button on the homepage to choose your version.

  • No — and that was a very intentional decision.

    Both Google and Apple can delay, restrict, or block app updates entirely. If you have a great idea that makes the app better — or something needs fixing — I don't want to wait weeks for an approval queue. I want that update in your hands the same day it's ready.

    Web-based also means no device restrictions. Use it on your phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop — whatever's in front of you. Log in from anywhere. Everything is always there.

    And when an update goes live? Just refresh your browser. No app store visit. No download. The latest version is always the one you're already using.

    Built for real life — not for how the big platforms prefer to do business.

  • Yes — completely and permanently. Both the 28-Day Meal Prep Plan and the Baseline Home Tracker app are one-time purchases with lifetime access. No monthly charges. No annual renewals. No surprise fees. No 'your trial has ended' emails. You buy it once and it's yours forever. That's not a promotion — it's how they're built.

  • You'll receive a confirmation email with your access details right away. For the digital app versions, you can log in and start using them within minutes of purchase. For the physical Home Tracker book, you'll receive order confirmation and shipping details. Either way — you won't be waiting long.

  • Yes. Your household can use the app together. It's designed to be a shared home and meal management system — not a single-user tool. Whether it's you, your spouse, or anyone else managing your home and meals, everyone in your household benefits from one purchase.

  • We offer a 48-hour Buyer's Remorse refund. If you purchase and decide within 48 hours that it isn't right for you, reach out to support@busyismybaseline.com and we'll take care of it — no complicated process, no interrogation. We want you to feel confident buying. After 48 hours all sales are final, as the full product is delivered digitally upon purchase.

BASELINE HOME®

  • BASELINE HOME allows you to manage up to five homes from one app. Each property has its own complete profile — contractors, warranties, maintenance logs, appliances, paint colors, and more — all organized and accessible with one tap. It's designed for people managing their own home plus a parent's home, rental properties, vacation homes, or any combination of properties.

  • Yes. BASELINE HOME is accessible across your devices — phone, tablet, and computer. Whether you're at home on your laptop, at the hardware store on your phone, or anywhere in between, your home information is always with you and always current.

  • BASELINE HOME by Busy Is My Baseline is designed specifically to track home warranties, expiration dates, and contractor contacts in one organized app. You can save every contractor with their specialty, phone number, and notes — and every warranty with its coverage details and expiration date. When something breaks, you open the app before you call anyone. You know what's covered before you spend a dollar. Before you may organize information with a spreadsheet or notes app requires you to build and maintain your own system from scratch — and most people never do, because it's time-consuming and there's no structure guiding them. Baseline Home gives you a purpose-built system with dedicated sections for contractors, warranties, maintenance logs, paint colors, appliances, projects, and more. Everything has a home. And it's designed to take ten seconds to update, not ten minutes. The difference is between having a filing cabinet and having a junk drawer — the information might all be there, but only one of them is actually useful when something goes wrong at 11pm.

  • Yes. In addition to the digital app, BASELINE HOME is available as a beautifully designed physical book — perfect if you prefer writing things down or want a tangible record alongside your important home documents. The book manages one home. If you have multiple properties, you would purchase a separate book for each — or use the digital app, which manages up to five homes in one place.

  • BASELINE HOME gives you a dedicated maintenance log where you are able to see and mark off weekly, monthly and bi-annual maintenance. Files, Projects and Directories allow you to store information, upload photos of warranties and more. Everything is organized by property and searchable, so your complete home history is always accessible. When you sell, you can print the entire maintenance record and hand it to your buyer.

  • It's one of the most practical and thoughtful gifts you can give a new homeowner. From day one they can start documenting their home — contractors, warranties, paint colors, appliance details — so they're never scrambling when something goes wrong. Real estate agents love it as a closing gift. Friends and family buying their first home appreciate something genuinely useful over another candle. It's the gift that keeps working for them for years.

  • The most effective way to stop wasting grocery money is to shop from a meal plan rather than a list built from memory or impulse. The Baseline Meal Prep generates a complete grocery list directly from your meal plan — every ingredient has a meal assigned to it before it goes in your cart. Nothing gets forgotten, nothing goes to waste, and impulse purchases drop significantly. Users report saving an average of $229 per week compared to unplanned food spending.

  • Yes — and we love that you asked this. You can add your own recipes to the app including a photo of the dish. One important note: the app does not automatically read the photo and generate the ingredient list for you — ingredients will need to be entered manually. But once they're in, your family recipe is fully integrated into your meal plan and grocery list just like every other recipe in the app. Your grandmother's lasagna officially has a home.

  • Yes. The 28-Day Meal Prep Plan is accessible across your devices — phone, tablet, and computer. Plan your week on your laptop on Sunday, check your grocery list on your phone at the store, and pull up the recipe on your tablet while you're cooking. It goes where you go.

  • Searching recipes online gives you individual meals with no connection to each other — no weekly structure, no organized grocery list, no plan. You still have to decide what to make, check what you have, build your own list, and figure out how it all fits together. The 28-Day Meal Prep Plan gives you 28 days of meals that are already planned, already connected to a grocery list, and already organized into a week that makes sense. The decision is made before Monday starts. That's the difference between having ingredients and having dinner.

  • Baseline Meal Prep by Busy Is My Baseline is a one-time purchase meal planning app with lifetime access — no subscription, no monthly fees, no renewals ever. It includes 28 days of planned meals, auto-generated grocery lists, step-by-step recipes, and the ability to add your own family recipes. One purchase. Everything included. Yours forever.

  • The app is built to be flexible, in that you can easily replace beef with turkey or simply omit/replace ingredients with what you prefer. You can also upload your own recipes and create your own grocery lists.

BASELINE MEAL PREP®

For Real Estate Agents

  • Absolutely — and it's one of the most genuinely useful closing gifts in the industry. You helped your client find their dream home. Now help them keep their new home information organized. A personalized BASELINE HOME tracker book arrives at closing with your branding, your contact information, and a message from you — so every time they open it to look up a contractor or track a repair, they see your name. It keeps you top of mind long after the transaction closes, and it gives your clients something they'll actually use for years.

  • Yes. The physical Home tracker book is available for customization for real estate agents, brokerages, and property managers. Add your logo or personal photo and your contact information. It's a high-quality, memorable alternative to the standard closing gift basket — and it works double duty as a long-term marketing tool that stays in your client's home. Go to Real Estate Agents to order your customized books

  • Most closing gifts are consumed and forgotten within a week. The BASELINE HOME tracker lives on a desk or shelf and gets used every time something happens in the home — a repair, a contractor call, a warranty question, a paint touch-up. That's consistent, ongoing visibility with your past clients at zero additional cost after the initial gift. And when those clients are ready to sell, or when they refer a friend who's buying — they already have your name and number right there in the book they use every week. It's referral marketing built into a closing gift.

About Busy Is My Baseline

  • Busy Is My Baseline was founded by Tracey — a real person managing her own home in Virginia, her parents' home in Delaware, a house she's building in North Carolina, and a new marriage, all while running a business. She tried planners, spreadsheets, apps, and color-coded folders. None of it held. So she built the system she actually needed — one for the homes, one for the meals — and turned them into tools anyone juggling more than one person was designed to manage alone could use. These apps weren't built in a boardroom. They were built in the middle of real chaos.

  • Anyone juggling more than one person was designed to manage alone. Homeowners managing one property or five. Parents feeding a family on a real budget. Adult children helping aging parents. Blended families with complex households. Landlords tracking rental properties. New homeowners starting from scratch. Real estate agents looking for meaningful closing gifts. If busy is your baseline — these were built for you.

  • No — and this is intentional. Both products are one-time purchases with lifetime access. No monthly fees, no annual renewals, no premium tiers, no features locked behind a more expensive plan. You purchase once and everything is yours permanently. That's a deliberate choice — because the people these tools were built for are already managing enough without adding another monthly charge to track.
