Homeschool Consultants face unique challenges: State homeschool law varies — what's legal in Texas is illegal in NY. IEP and 504 documentation for special-needs homeschool families. Multi-child family pricing — flat per family, per child, or sliding scale. School district pushback letters and notarized affidavits. Annual recurring review pricing without monthly retainer obligation. On top of all that, HoneyBook charges $39/month ($468/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median homeschool consultant earns $42,000/year. Software at $468/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your State-by-state homeschool law reference (HSLDA or equivalent) is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
HoneyBook is just one piece. What else are you losing money on?
