Talking Squarely Podcast
Season One of the Talking Squarely podcast brought together independent business owners for frank discussions about running a business, decision making, and more. This candid series is available on Spotify, Apple, Google, and Stitcher.
The Future of Restaurants and Future of Retail reports
Square developed the Future of Restaurants and Future of Retail reports to give sellers a snapshot of what businesses are investing in and what’s working.
To uncover these insights, we collaborated with Wakefield Research to survey 500 restaurateurs, 500 retailers, and 1,000 consumers across the U.S. Additionally, we spoke to Square sellers and industry experts to share how retailers and restaurateurs are facing challenges, embracing innovative solutions, and forging new paths forward in 2021.
These two reports are filled with inspiration, tactics, and tools that can help set up sellers’ business for future success and can be a great resource for partners to reference.
