This is a great video! As soon as you mentioned WiFi I was like, yep, this will be a real talk kind of video. Thanks!
Excellent content 👍👍
Thank you ! You’re the only video that I could find about this!
Hi Rachel - IKR! I could only find information on how to set up my table with a pretty blanket and how to arrange my products but nothing practical on how to get paid $$. LOL.
Pretty Fabulous Designs exactly ! Thank you again - it’s very useful info!
Where can I order books or planners in bulk for my small business for a pop up shop
Thank you for the insights.
Hi Farhan: Glad it was helpful! XO Lisa
I am just starting out, but I am selling products for a non-profit. It would be great to have a video to watch reference that.
Love this video! Can you talk about getting planners/journals into a retail store?
Thanks, Elvis - yes, will add that to the list!
Hello I am new to craft shows and square payments. could you show the full transaction from taking cards and entering information.
Not all states allow you to embed the sales tax in your pricing
Hello! If I'm only planning to do like 2 craft shows a year and I'm doing it as a hobby (don't have a business license), do I need to charge sales tax when using square?
Great information well-presented terrible background noise
I have Square and to get the chip reader, it does cost to buy the device. Around $70 or so.
Thanks for adding that cost - good to know!
I wonder what platforms it works with. I sell via my own site and use paypal for payments
It was free for me
Do I need an upgraded cell phone android to use this devices the chip reader?
Hi Tut Secret: No - it has nothing to do with your cell phone. The card swiper that PayPal will send you will do it all for you. XO Lisa
I just started using the square app for my craft fairs for credit cards. It was easy to set up and use, but my only question, is there a way to put my raw cost in each item? That way, after an item sells, I can see how much I made off of it?
Do I have to collect the tax?
@@tutsecret499 the best thing to do is to contact the stat you live in Sales Tax department. They will be able to help you with the information you need and how to file.
How does this work when applying/signup. Do I have to contact the bank. I have no clue.
Hey Tut Secret: You don't have to contact the bank. Just choose an option - and then you'll enter your bank info online through whatever service you select. XO Lisa
How do you print the customer receipt
Square sends an email receipt automatically
Okay so I am really bad at this pleasr don't judge 😅 In Indiana sales tax is 7 percent. The thing I am selling is 10 dollars so what would I want to charge?
Wow - this looks like a math problem which is literally my worst subject - you should check with a sales tax expert or use Taxjar. Good luck XO Lisa
@@PrettyFabulousDesigns 7% of $10 is $.70. So they would charge $10.70 or round up to $11.00.
@@Sewlady718 do we charge taxes based on the state, or city we are selling in? I'm just starting my business but I am so confused on the sales tax portion
@Adriana Gavilan Aguilera Both. Your state has a sales tax and usually there is a county and city tax. Your state should have a website for taxes which usually includes income taxes, sales taxes and any other applicable taxes. In New York it is the New York Franchise Tax website. I file my taxes online yearly. How often you file is based on your annual sales whether it’s monthly, quarterly or yearly. Let me know if you have any other questions.
First we want to find what is 7% of $10, and to do that we convert 7% to a decimal which makes it .07 and we multiply it by the $10.
$10 x .07 = .7
.7 is 7% of $10.
Finally add .7 to the $10
$10 + .7 = $10.7
You would charge $10.7.
Is there portable wifi things,
Hi John: Like a separate device? No, there is not.
@@PrettyFabulousDesigns ok thank you for replying on this video I’m a little late to the game 😂😂
@@sweets_treats9533 Better late than never!
Yes there is! If you have Verizon it is called a Jetpack. It basically gives you hotspot, not sure what else you need with that, but i know that exists :)
I’m think about doing a small business at my local Taste of Cincinnati, what can i do for payment options that don’t have a lot of fees , ? Thank you for the video 😊
Me from la where sales tax is 10% 😅 where is in the world is it 3%
Hi Elaina: Here's a high-level chart of sales tax in the US taxfoundation.org/2020-sales-taxes/
10%!!!!!? I thought the highest tax was in NY about 7% that was 28 years ago when I was in NY.
Lots of "I don't know" maybe you should know before making the video...?
