The nextSteps Live Chat feature is live.
Live Chat is a FREE resource that enables artists to connect in real-time with a Pentacle Administrator to address their FISCAL needs and questions during Live Chat Office Hours. Each Live Chat session is up to 20 minutes for each day that Live Chat is online.
At this time, Live Chat will provide support for Fiscal-related needs and questions. If additional or more in-depth consultation is needed, a Pentacle Administrator will make service and resource recommendations.
Examples of Fiscal topics that Live Chat is currently able to support:
- Audit Preparation
- Assistance in implementing best business practices
- Bookkeeping Inquiries
- Budget Review & Assistance
- Cash flow management
- Chart of Accounts Organization
- Class Accounting streamlining
- How to Create 1099/W2 Tax Forms
- Payroll administration
- Preparation & Presentation of financial statements
- QuickBooks 101
Click on the purple button in the lower right corner to start your Live Chat.
