# Know if the event made money, before it ends.

Audience: Organisers
Problem: "We didn't know if we made money."

The Konecto Finance module gives each event a budget by category, planned against actual costs, with ticket revenue added automatically after fees. Organisers see a live profit and loss, the break-even ticket count and cost per attendee.

## Why it happens
- Budgets live in one spreadsheet and ticket revenue in another.
- Fees and refunds make the real revenue number hard to find.
- The true result only appears weeks later.

## How Konecto fixes it
Ticket sales, refunds and fees flow in from Konecto checkout automatically. You add costs as they happen, from the app or by asking your AI, and the P&L updates on the spot.

## Steps
1. Plan: Set a budget by category: venue, catering, AV, marketing.
2. Record: Add actual costs as invoices arrive.
3. Know: Live P&L, break-even and cost per attendee.
