Take Advantage of Educational Sessions!
Running a small business is challenging. You wear a lot of different hats. You may be the staff accountant in the morning, on the sales floor over lunch and the social media manager in the afternoon. Unfortunately, you may not be fully trained in all of those roles. But the good news is, the Yankton Chamber is here to help.
The Yankton Chamber membership is full of professionals, like you, with areas of expertise that can be tremendously helpful to other members when shared.
We leverage the power of that network by hosting Peer to Peer Meetings, Business Sense & Security Sessions, and offering all of our members access to the Business Video Library.
It’s your membership. Own it!

Question
:
“Do I need to collect sales taxes?"
Answer
:
Unless your business is in Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire or Oregon the answer is
yes.
If your business sells a product or provides a service that is taxable, you will need to set up a process to collect and pay sales taxes and file sales tax returns periodically. This involves registering with the state, determining your tax rates, setting up a process to collect taxes and sending reports and remitting payments to the state. More information can be found for SD businesses at
http://dor.sd.gov/Taxes/Business_Taxes/
or for NE businesses at
