Re: Welcome and Introduce Yourself in the Community

So excited to see new faces and read all about your businesses 🎉!

 

As we are gearing up to the holiday season, we are once again curating a Community Gift Guide. It's an initiative we started last year and we got an incredible response, so we want to keep the tradition going. 

 

Please share an item or service you are excited to offer for this holiday season in this thread. If you are selling online, don't forget to share a link in your reply too! I can't wait to see what everyone is doing.

Hello everybody,

 

My name is Sean.

 

My wife and I recently opened a coffee shop in Sioux Falls, SD (https://briouxfallscoffee.com/). 

 

We're both new to running a business. She's never worked in service industry and I've been out of restaurants for about 16 or so years. She runs the daily operations along side our 19 year old twin daughters (and occasionally our 14 y/o son). I do most the administrative stuff when I'm not working my regular full time job as a Staff Software Engineer. 

 

 

Cheers!

Hello! My name is Cortney. I work full time at a clinic, manage 3 children (ok, the oldest is an adult now, but still counts right?), and decided to open a small shop online to sell my trinkets. Right now I have glass beaded bracelets, but I am working on adding more things. It's a slow process. I am not looking to make it big, or anything. I don't want to sell more than I can keep up with. I am sure that's a good problem to have, but it's not something I think I could handle. If anyone wants to see what I have so far, feel free to check out my site: cortstrinketgarden.weebly.com

Hello, my name is Alisha,

I started making jewelry in 2018 with old jewelry. Earrings missing the pair or getting some stuff at the store. I loved seeing old jewelry turning into something beautiful again. A few people told me I should keep doing it and sell them. 

So now I am 😄

Hello my name is Angie I am the creator of Angie’s Driving Service.  I do luxury driving as well as medical transports. Square makes doing medical transports so much easier as well as booking riders. 

Something about just sending them a link or QR code they can use to pay you is amazing. I even have the QR code on my business cards making it a portable pos system in itself. 

So remember Never Fear Angie’s Here. And have a great day!

 

Nice meeting you all

Adair Reese, Boutique Owner and Business Consultant. I have worked in retail & sales for over 20 years. I would love to see Square catch up with Shopify on the e-commerce, live selling, along with social media integration. It is a by far better platform but has some gaps. It would also be amazing to see an option to turn our website into a phone app with prompts.
