As a business owner we all go through different phases of learning in business. We
learn everything from how to run our business on paper, navigating expenses, hiring the right
team of expert lawyers and accounts to how to become more profitable. We often ask
ourselves, “Am I doing this right? Is my business headed in the direction I want it to go? What
areas of my business do I need to focus on?” These are just some of the many questions we
encounter in day to day business operations.
Have you ever wondered if other business owners think the same things you do? Have
you ever wondered if there is someone out there going through the same business growing
pains as you? Well... you might be in a small town and there might not be another business like
yours anywhere close, so you may feel isolated and not know who to connect with.
Square has an AMAZING community that you are a part of just by being a Square
business member. Did you know that? The Seller Community is a place where you can connect
with other like-minded individuals who are experiencing some of the same growing pains you
are or maybe those who’ve already gone through them and can offer advice. Every aspect of
business is discussed somewhere within the Seller Community. All you have to do is join! How
do you do that? Login to your Square account and open the Seller Community and join! It’s
that simple! And while you’re at it, look at these other great benefits:
The Seller Community has a Book Club that just started and it is fantastic! Right now
we’re reading the book Start With Why by Simon Sinek. I’ve been self-employed for 36 years
and I still believe that I can learn something new everyday. I’m now on my nineth business and
the one thing I’ve always known was that each business needs to have a Why. Why do we do
what we do? I voted for this book because I felt like I needed a refresher and it has been
perfect and yes, I’ve already learned something. Our club will be reviewing this book on a
Zoom call later this month and we’ll begin a new book for June and July. If you join the club
now, you can vote on the next book. It hasn’t been decided yet! Now is a great time to check
out the Book Club and the Seller’s Community and see all that they have to offer. There are
many different things that you can subscribe to and participate in, at any level, and glean from
others’ experiences. Each of us has something to offer and you may have a unique perspective
or skill in your business that someone else is looking for. The best part is that you’re not limited
to Whitehall, MT. Square is a global platform so there are businesses connecting from all over
the world. You never know what you might find that could truly help your business succeed or
help you over the hurdle you’re facing. In any case, it’s all free just for being a business
member and I think you’ll be very surprised at how engaging and helpful it truly is.
Got any questions? Want to join but not sure how to navigate it? Let me know, I can
help! Give me a call at my office, Arctic Heat (406) 202-3460 or an email at

Happy learning!
