PerformerTrack - 'Trust-ed by Its Users'
PerformerTrack, the premier Web-based career management tool utilized by the performing community worldwide, announced today the launch of two new reporting and exporting features within the program; ChildTrust Reports and PerformerTrust Reports.

LOS ANGELES, CA, April 30, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- PerformerTrack (www.PerformerTrack.com), the premier Web-based career management tool utilized by the performing community worldwide, announced today the launch of two new reporting and exporting features within the program; ChildTrust Reports and PerformerTrust Reports.

A ChildTrust Account, also known as "Coogan Account", is a separate bank account that is required by law in some locations to be set-up by the parent/legal guardian on behalf of their child performer. For every paycheck that a child receives as a performer the parent/legal guardian must deposit a specific percentage of the gross into the ChildTrust/Coogan Account. This is a process designed to ensure that the parents/legal guardians do not squander all the money earned by their child performer.

"Until PerformerTrack came along with its unique built-in 'ChildTrust Tracker' feature, ChildTrust and Coogan accounts were notoriously problematic and tough to oversee," said Kristina Hughes, COO & President of Holdon Log (the parent company of PerformerTrack). "Now with the release of its dynamic ChildTrust Report and Export features parents and legal guardians can easily keep track of all such payments, know which deposits are still outstanding and have peace-of-mind that if ever challenged in a court of law that they can quickly and easily print a report to prove their case."

Another unique built-in feature of PerformerTrack is a tool called 'PerformerTrust Tracker'. "This one-of-a-kind feature was born out of building PerformerTrack's 'ChildTrust Tracker'," said Brian Vermeire, CEO of Holdon Log. "We all looked at each other here and thought 'what a great idea!'. If child performers set-aside a percentage of their money how about creating an easy way for performers over the age of 18 to do the same thing? This way when a performer wants to get new headshots, produce their own project, take classes, etc. they have a nest egg to tap into rather than just charging it, going into debt or not moving their career forward at all."

PerformerTrust Tracker allows performers to earmark a percentage of the net amount of any paycheck they earn to be set aside. Miata Edoga, President of Abundance Bound, a company that provides financial education specifically to the creative community, stated, "This amazing feature within PerformerTrack is further empowering artists to finally break-free of the 'I'm broke' and 'starving artist' mentality that has forever dogged the performing community. Especially now, in today's economic climate, having an easy-to-use tool that enables artists to save a portion of the money they earn is invaluable."

Trish Powell, Holdon Log's Operations Manager, said, "The newly added ability to print and export PerformerTrust and ChildTrust Reports rounds-out the acclaimed feature-set found within PerformerTrack's Income and Expenses sections. Our clients have expressed that they are thrilled with this new release as well as the nearly 300 updates we've launched since our initial release in September 2008. This is beyond what we were able to do with software, another affirmation that Webware is not just a trend, it is here."

PerformerTrack, the Webware designed to "Simplify the Business of Show", retails for an average monthly subscription of only $9.95 USD, which includes all new updates and features, as well as client data redundantly stored on secure servers at a tier 4 data center.
