I started my bakery a couple of months ago and am still working hard to grow it. Unfortunately, I’ve been seriously ill and have had to undergo two major surgeries, which has made things even more challenging. Sales haven’t been the best, and my business isn’t as profitable as it should be due to my health struggles. However, I’m still pushing forward. I see that you all are doing so well, and I truly admire your success. For me, it’s all about promoting my business and finding ways to improve. Thank you!

Most people know me as ScaryAnn or Scary. I weave tiny metal rings into beautiful jewelry. We (my other half and I) started out setting up at local Farmers Markets. Setting up and tearing down three times a week was just too much on my falling apart body, so we rented a small storefront in our small town. We still do one Farmers Market, but having the storefront has been so much easier on my body. I've been using Square for a few years now. You can see some of my work at: www.designsbyscaryann.com

Opened a flower shop (that also sells consigned craft goods) in Wisconsin suburb. Resisting the push from all the floral mega sites and doing the whole thing on Square. For the most part Square has been perfect...frustrated right now with the app and "orders"

seems that Square does not want the ability to place an order with ringing it through as a sale...there is no other way to explain that the "create order" button does not appear on the ipad or the terminal app in the orders screen.

Hi, Everyone!

I'm a torchwork glass artist, Hale Fire Glass. I've been working with glass for about 21 years. I spent a lot of the last 17 years teaching the art but last spring I joined a (very cool!) local art community and am trying to do more creating. I've used Square for about 4 years, mostly at art shows, but now it's what I use for sales in the boutique part of my studio. I look forward to learning more about how to use Square's more advanced features.
