Texas has no state income tax. Every dollar you save on software stays in your pocket. The $1,077 annual savings from switching to Nexa is real money — not reduced by state taxes.
Whether you call it billing, a platform for jobs, or a invoicing system — most street artists in Beaumont patch together HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Toggl Track, Harvest and other monthly services. That's $1,356/year in subscriptions. Over the next 5 years at today's prices, that bill reaches $6,780.
Nexa lets you own your tools. Your CRM, billing, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — under one roof in a single platform. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No copying between apps. No integration hacks. No per-connection charges. It's a no subscription — stop overpaying right away. For street artists in Beaumont 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.
A live wall is a performance with a clock on it, so my day often starts by scouting the surface and the light, because a commissioned piece at a festival or a brand activation has a tight window and I don't own the wall I'm painting on. I plan the piece in my sketchbook and cut or load my stencils the night before, because once I'm on site with a crowd watching and a teardown deadline, there's no time to improvise the structure. On the wall I block the base with fat caps, then switch to skinny caps and paint markers for the linework and detail, working fast and reading the surface, which is sometimes raw brick that drinks paint and sometimes a slick panel that drips. I'm in a respirator the whole time because the fumes are no joke in a closed alley. Midday the light shifts and what looked bold in shade goes washed out in sun, so I push the contrast. There's always the business undertow: brands love the 'authentic street' look but try to lowball and quietly ask me to sign over all rights to the imagery so they can plaster it across an ad campaign, so I hold the line on rate and credit. Because walls are temporary and a piece can be buffed or tagged within a week, I get the deposit before I start and photograph the finished work in good light immediately, to protect my fee and make sure I, not the brand, own the documentation of what I made.
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 street artist'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 street artist — 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.
