When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $828/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it invoice management, a app for jobs, or a invoicing system — most sound bath facilitators in Ann Arbor juggle Vagaro, Acuity Scheduling, Square, HoneyBook and other monthly services. That's $828/year in monthly software fees. Over 5 years at today's prices, that stack costs $4,140.
Nexa gives you the ability to stop renting software. Your CRM, invoice management, booking, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — in a single app. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No copying between apps. No integration hacks. No sync fees. It's a buy once — stop overpaying the moment you switch. For sound bath facilitators in Ann Arbor weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
She loads the car like a Tetris champion, crystal bowls swaddled in padded cases because one crack and a thousand-dollar instrument is scrap, the gong strapped flat, chimes and koshi bells tucked around them. Her morning is a studio class, but ticket sales are thin and she does the grim math on whether tonight clears the room rental or she eats it. She lays out mats, bolsters, eye pillows, and tunes her bowls chakra to chakra. As people settle she gives the gentle warning she always gives: if you have tinnitus, sound sensitivity, or you're early in pregnancy, the gong gets loud, sit near the door if you need to. Then she plays, building from the crystal bowls into the deep wash of the gong, holding the overtones, watching shoulders drop across the room. Afternoon is a private booking, a birthday group in someone's living room with a completely different load-in and a different price. The week also holds a corporate wellness event and, next month, a festival set, each booked and invoiced its own way. She ends the day repacking every fragile bowl, texting a private client a quote for their event, and praying next week's class hits the ticket minimum so she isn't paying to play.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a sound bath facilitator's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a sound bath facilitator — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
