For me, the secret to success was letting go, inviting people in, and letting my team grow.

Set your team up for success
Appleton knows that he can’t do everything alone — having the right people by his side has opened up many new opportunities. But having a successful team means setting them up with the right technology and ensuring everyone has the tools to thrive.
As a business owner, you can start setting your team up for success by automating repetitive administrative tasks with Square. Gain back valuable time with inventory tracking, automated customer communications, employee management, reporting and more — all so you can free up your staff’s time and focus on the areas of your business that matter most.
The relationships and teams we create just might be the most beautiful part of what we all do. Mastering team building is as important as any other skill you can develop.

Square has been an amazing platform for us as a business. Not only just for myself and my bookings, but for my team.
