Video TranscriptExpand ↓

I'm Sarah Dawn, and my company name is Swell Little Donuts, and I'm the owner. I started Swell Little Donuts in twenty sixteen. I really love donuts, and, I actually saw mini donut machines when I was at a state fair in Alaska, so I thought it would be fun to start something that I could bring to, large groups of people and kind of lighten the event. I decided to go with with PayPal because I was already familiar with PayPal, and I went with PayPal because I needed to use a product that had invoicing. So that's the product that I primarily use is their QR code to accept payments and invoicing. A small business owner and not having a background in business, I had to figure out how to, take payments and how to do invoicing and how I was going to, structure my business. So I would say have a lot of grit and ask questions actually through PayPal group, a lot of support that I could receive if I had questions.
