Our less sophisticated customers are going to have trouble with the two-factor authentication for admin access. Any thought about putting together a tutorial with pictures explaining how to set it up and use it ?
TOTP, apps, and cell phones are not the only option. Using a Yubikey plugged into the computer's USB port will also work, allowing the dramatically increased security for the store without the need for any additional app to generate a code.
For TOTP though, that doesn't require a cell phone, apps available for cell phones are just a convenient method of having a token always at hand. Worst case, keep the TOTP key in a secure place and cut/paste it into a web page like https://totp.danhersam.com/ to generate a token as needed. The web page wouldn't know what the key is actually being used for.

These are all tips that should be included in the how-to...
That is included in the two factor how to guide that you posted the link to. The second section specifically addresses Yubikey and walks through authenticating with it, which it explains is simply inserting it into the usb slot and touching the button.
