- No idea what a job actually made

Bookkeeping — common questions
- Our books are badly behind. Is that a problem?
- No. VICI Financial scopes catch-up as its own piece, then starts the monthly rhythm.
- Do we have to switch accounting software?
- No. VICI Financial works with your current software unless it keeps causing problems.
- Who actually does the work?
- A staff accountant handles the day-to-day at VICI Financial, with senior review.
Before you book
What a discovery call is
A discovery call is a two-way conversation about whether VICI Financial can help. If not, Joe says so early.
What we will talk about
- What the business does and how it makes money
- What is hardest right now
- Where you want the business in a year
- Whether VICI Financial is a fit, and the next step either way
Worth having handy
None of this is required to book — it just makes the first conversation more useful.
- Recent business and personal tax returns, if handy
- How the books are kept, and who touches them
- The two or three decisions you are weighing
Keeping your data safe
