Hi @deliverer00, welcome to the Seller Community!

You can start a website for free using Square Online. It's super simple!

Taking good photos of your products is important, but it can be done with a good smartphone and some staging.

Let me know what else you need help with, I'll be glad to help. And definitely let us know the website when it's up and running.

Best of luck on the business!

Help us help you....
What are you selling and where? Online or Brick and Mortar?
How many items are you selling?
Regardless, First set up Categories

Then add items to categories

then add variations to items.

OK I have to get my inventory right first. Sorry about that. I will use what you wrote as a guidance. I will just be doing inventory and posting it to be sold. When I get some inventory and set up my catagories I will definately contact you all again. Thanks guys.

It’s easier if you decide on what categories you need then create those first. Then open each category and create your items. Also if you’re using Square for Retail then it gives you the ability to use Purchase Orders. That definitely makes it easier to get inventory entered because you can select your vendor, enter items, quantities, and wholesale cost into the purchase order. Then once you actually receive the items you can just select that PO, add any extra fees like shipping and taxes to the PO and then it’s a 1 click process to receive the items and enter them into inventory
