Thank you so much! I use the Square POS for my brick and mortar yarn shop and have started my website. It’s a mess! I’ve been struggling so hard and getting no where with it. Signing up for the course now.
Hey Yarn, It's really cool if you can use the square online platform if you're already using the POS. Makes it easy to manage inventory and all in one place. I hope you'll find the course helpful! Let me know how you get on!
Hey Yosian! Thank you for the kind words 🙏 I see you’re now enrolled in the course as well - awesome! Ah, Cuba, I wish we could swap for a while ;) Cheers from a cold and wintery Sweden!
Hey Marisol, All well here, I hope the same with you! I do cover this in my course on the link below (available for free until pandemic restrictions are lifted): app.thesalonbusiness.com/online-store-course/
You can find it in the website settings when setting up your website before publishing the site keep searching through the menus within square guides you
This help a lot. You explained it well. I’m so overwhelmed using square space why costumers on my website cannot order right on checkout. Shipping is not looking good on my site too. Ugh! I don’t know how everything work through. You’re really good in explaining and good mentor as well. You nailed it. But I already signed up online. Is there anyway you can still teach me?
Thank you Kawika 🙏 It’s a bit different from what I normally post on the channel :). I hope you’ll enjoy the course! Would love to see your site and store when you have it ready!
Although learning frontend & backend development in order to build a store will take much longer than using an editor, it is the best way by a long shot.
This web builder (WB) is great, but competition is boiling. some WB like mob irise are crushing it with innovative templates, and drag and drop from heaven... the industry is getting exciting
I have square and attempted to create a website with it but just didn't know how to do it all. I saw your youtube and was thrilled only to find I can't get the training because I'm already signed up. How do I get the training just struggling to do it myself. Seems easy but I have better things to do than spend wasted hours trying to work it out. Help please!
I just started the course and followed your instructions on how to set up a square account. I don't seem to have an option to choose between the 3 options that are shown in the video and am only able to create a single page site only. This has been the challenge that I have been having with Square and was hoping to resolve it.
@@TheSalonBusiness No, not at this time but I am looking ahead. I don’t want to have to redo my inventory management system if I don’t have to. I no longer work full time in the beauty industry. I do still use square appointments & I also use Square for invoicing with my current business. I retail jewelry online and I have thousands of pieces. So I’m at the point where I need to keep better track of it. I can only have so much because I use a very tiny area at home to run my business
Hi, You can absolutely use it for an online only business even if a big strength is that fact that it also syncs with offline POS system when you have a physical store. It’s free to use their basic plan, however you will pay a credit card transaction fee (which you will do indecently of which platform you use). I like Square for the simplicity - it’s just really quick an easy to get a store up.
Hi, Getting your store up is the first thing you need to do. But to have it generate sales indeed also requires good marketing. I hope you’ll find some of the other videos on this channel helpful in that regard. Thanks!
I got a quick question Is this a monthly fee like do we have to pay monthly to keep the store open? I learn Etsy and shopify and wish are online stores where you have to pay monthly. I am a small artists and I am planning on opening a small store to sell my handmade stickers and soon I will be selling pins aswell? Do you think square online is a good choice for me to open a small store?
Square will work very well for this. The basic plan is free with Square, you only pay credit card transaction fees (which you would do on any other platform). You can also upgrade to a paid plan if you for example want your own domain name. This would be a monthly fee - still affordable though.
Hi, I can’t add a section of text to a category. Is there a way around this please? It’s really putting me off continuing with square as my e-commerce provider!
Does anyone know a FREE website where I can sell custom orders? Because any website I find doesn’t have the option to allow “customers” to upload pictures from there camera roll.
Absolutely. You of course have market places like Etsy that specialize in these types of products but if you want to own and control your own store Square will do the job very well and is a popular choice.
I understand - Square is the most beginner friendly tool I have used and I hope the video and training can help you if you want to setup your site without being tech savvy
This is an intro to the 100% free course at thesalonbusiness.com/store. You’ll learn every little detail there. Could not cover that inside the clip. Hope that helps!

Cool, hope you found it helpful!

Are you in the free training I have over at thesalonbusiness.com?
Great tutorial John. Thanks so much for putting it together! It's exactly what I was looking for. I signed up for the course also. 😀
Thank you Kawika 🙏 It’s a bit different from what I normally post on the channel :). I hope you’ll enjoy the course! Would love to see your site and store when you have it ready!
Nice!!!
Although learning frontend & backend development in order to build a store will take much longer than using an editor, it is the best way by a long shot.
Could be but many don't have the resource and capacity to go down that route..
This was fabulous! I’m heading straight to the course! Thank you!
Awesome! See you there! 👌
Thank you for this. It was super helpful. I signed up for the course. I just recently learned that the website option was available.
Awesome. Good seeing you inside the course!
is the free plan temporal or you can always use it ? and do square up host website or i have to buy a host ?
This web builder (WB) is great, but competition is boiling. some WB like mob irise are crushing it with innovative templates, and drag and drop from heaven... the industry is getting exciting
Yes, a lot happening in this space!
Hi, your website looks great! I just ordered a square and wanted to know how a free website would work for me..Thank you, very helpful

Hmm.. Sounds odd. In the training I show exactly how I do it so don’t really have any other tips here..
Hi John, This is amazing and the most widely covered tutorial I've come across so far. I've just signed up the course as well.
Thank you for the kind words 🙏 Glad you found it helpful. I hope I'll get the chance to connect with you on the course platform as well!
Thank you for this video. How do I set up the more options under book now?
You’ll configure everything related to appointments inside Square Appountment. Unless you use a different tool for that 🙏
Wow, it looks like some things were added in I’ve never seen some of these options before nice.
Yes, they are adding a lot of new things all the time :)
@@TheSalonBusiness
I’m still on the fence about it. If my inventory gets even larger I would like a company that uses the “comment sold” feature
Understand. Are you running Shopify today or something else?
@@TheSalonBusiness No, not at this time but I am looking ahead. I don’t want to have to redo my inventory management system if I don’t have to. I no longer work full time in the beauty industry.

Sounds cool and makes a lot of sense. All the best!
This was very helpful. Thanks a whole lot
Thank you Natalie 🙏 Glad it was useful!
Great!!
🙏
I have online orders on and it says accepting orders, why do I get "this store doesn't offer any payment yet"
Have you activated payments?
Great tutorial man! Very easily put and professionally explained. Keep up the good work. :)
Thank you for the kind words and encouragement! 🙏
Is Square a good platform to new Online only Business selling apparel and is there a charge to have the Online only site?
Hi,
You can absolutely use it for an online only business even if a big strength is that fact that it also syncs with offline POS system when you have a physical store. It’s free to use their basic plan, however you will pay a credit card transaction fee (which you will do indecently of which platform you use).

Hello is your course still available??
Yes it is! World is still shaky in many places so keeping it open and free a bit longer. You can sign up on the link below:

HI for this website is there a way for it to not automatically accept appointments and i can manually confirm it.
Hi,
Yes, you can manually confirm pending appointments. See: squareup.com/help/us/en/article/5349-schedule-and-accept-appointments
Its very useful video friend .. But I'm still looking for online earning , Still trying friend .. thanks
Hi,
Getting your store up is the first thing you need to do. But to have it generate sales indeed also requires good marketing. I hope you’ll find some of the other videos on this channel helpful in that regard. Thanks!
@@TheSalonBusiness thanks friend .. Ill go through it.

How do you embed products in wordpress?
You cannot embed but need to link to your store.
Hi, I can’t add a section of text to a category. Is there a way around this please? It’s really putting me off continuing with square as my e-commerce provider!
You can do some customization on category pages but I know it's a bit limited..
Does anyone know a FREE website where I can sell custom orders? Because any website I find doesn’t have the option to allow “customers” to upload pictures from there camera roll.
Hmm.. I wouldn't know a free tool who does this out of the box..
Thank you! Is square good for handmade handcrafted items?
Absolutely. You of course have market places like Etsy that specialize in these types of products but if you want to own and control your own store Square will do the job very well and is a popular choice.
@@TheSalonBusiness Thank you!
How do I add drop shipping
I know Square has a partnership with Spocket for this. See: squareup.com/us/en/townsquare/what-is-drop-shipping
Is this website free or adds on?
Can you build my Square appt page? How much do you charge?
Sorry, I don’t offer that service. There are a lot of freelancers out there who can help. Maybe try Upwork.com?
How did you get the “our blog” text to appear at the top navigation? When I try to change that it keeps me on the default “stories” text for the blog.
You can change it in the stories settings..
@@TheSalonBusiness awesome, thanks I have it working now.
Wondering about how to be annomus to public
Are you looking to password protect the site?
Could I have more than one store ?
What about email pop up?
You can do email pop up. But if I recall correctly, this is only available on the paid plans.
Oh, ok. Thanks.
can i do t-shirts and masks on this platform?
You can certainly sell them but there is no support for making them
How do we get instant transfer square?
Sorry, not sure I understand what you mean. Is it inventory synchronization you mean?
ugh I'm not tech savvy but I'm trying
I understand - Square is the most beginner friendly tool I have used and I hope the video and training can help you if you want to setup your site without being tech savvy
How do I contact you
John@thesalonbusiness.com 👍
「コンテンツを調整する必要があります」、
Ok 😅
You are a hairdresser??
Hi Michele
No, I’m not a hairdresser. We have hairdressers on the team here and the majority of our members are hair salon owners 👍
Are you Swedish?
Yep :)
@@TheSalonBusiness The way you speak is a somehow pleasing way for me haha. Great video by the way!
Please get to the point
Thanks, I'm doing my best to get better with every video. Appreciate the feedback.
totally misleading title and waste of time. should have been just "what is an online store".
This is an intro to the 100% free course at thesalonbusiness.com/store. You’ll learn every little detail there. Could not cover that inside the clip. Hope that helps!
Can i connect SQUARE with google nalytics?
Not that I am aware of..
