This episode is brought to you by Square, your favorite neighborhood spots run on Square.

If I opened a little Beyond Beans, coffee, and coaching nook on my block, I'd start with Square.

As you grow, business gets complex. New locations, more customers, real cash flow swings.

Square meets you at every step, building a loyal following, smoothing the finances,

and keeping the day moving. From first sale to second location, it scales with you. Need to

bridge a slow week? Tools to cover cash flow gaps. Want fans who come back? Built in ways to build

loyalty and keep them in the loop. What started as that little white card reader now powers the behind the scene stuff that actually matters, inventory, invoices, and those end of day reconciles.

In short, Square knocks out today's to-dos and unlocks tomorrow's what-ifs so you can focus on the work only you can do. Go to square.com

slash go slash beyond to learn more. That's SQ, that's SQU-A-R-E dot com slash geo slash beyond.

Square, meet you there.
