The Square Seller Community Meet-Up is more than just an event — it's a chance to connect, learn, and grow alongside your peers. We believe in the power of community and the collective wisdom that arises when like-minded individuals come together.

After graduation, she worked as a pastry chef at Eos in San Francisco and Grasshopper in Oakland. From 2005 to 2018, she operated Savoy Events, a renowned catering company. After that, she opened Ba-Bite in Oakland which received recognition from Food & Wine, Sunset, and KQED's "Check, Please!"

Is this a kid-free event or are we allowed to bring our child? If not, I may not be able to make it. 

Admin

@Moreplease -- Thanks so much for asking! We definitely want to accommodate busy parents. You, and others, are more than welcome to bring your children -- we'll set up a little play area with some stuff to keep 'em busy & happy too. I was told we have some puzzles/coloring stuff 😃

I’m excited to meet and talk with Square personnel after only knowing  them on the phone

@LeahK I’m assuming that I’ll be receiving my Business Class round-trip tickets (Cincinnati to Oakland) from Square, soon.  Will you be sending those via email or snail mail?  Either works just fine for me! 🤪😂😉😎😝

 

Seriously, sounds like a lot of fun.

Can I bring a guest? 

Admin

Hi @Brenda_Generali! Great question. While we'd love to say yes to all additional guests, due to capacity limitations, the event is limited to those who have RSVP'd in advance.  That said, if your guest is a business partner, co-worker, or colleague -- go ahead and bring them along. The more the merrier! 🙏

 

Thanks so much for the question and we're looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi ! I am not sure it registered me. how would I know?

Admin

Great question! Looks like you are all set @marinebahet1.

To confirm you are registered, if you are logged-in to the community, it will show "You are Going" in green. Hope this helps and can't wait to see you soon in Oakland 😊

I would to attend to unofficially represent San Francisco taxicab driving community and to describe the benefits this app has provided to these small businesses. 

Admin

So glad you're planning on joining us @TaxiBarry! There will be plenty of time to connect and network with folks in the small business community -- which is a perfect opportunity for you and others to build relationships, share tips, and discuss future opportunities 😎. See you next week!
