Oregon has a 4.75-9.9% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 9.9%. No sales tax (major benefit for material-heavy trades). Portland metro has additional taxes. High minimum wage. Transit tax in Portland metro.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $1,092/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 billing, a platform for jobs, or a invoicing system — most ppc specialists in Bend mix and match HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Calendly, QuickBooks along with other platforms. That's $1,092/year paying for software subscriptions. In half a decade at today's prices, those subscriptions total $5,460.
Switching to Nexa lets you break free from monthly fees. Your CRM, billing, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — unified in one platform. One drag books a client. One drag generates an invoice. No manual re-entry. No duct-tape integrations. No sync fees. It's a no subscription — keep more revenue from day one. For ppc specialists in Bend 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.
I open Google Ads before coffee because overnight is when search-term reports surprise you. First pass: scan yesterday's spend across five accounts, pull the search-query report, and add negative keywords for the junk that slipped past broad match. One account spent forty percent of its daily budget on 'free' modifiers, so I tighten match types and pause two ad groups. Mid-morning is bid work: a roofing client's cost-per-lead crept above target, so I shift budget toward the campaigns converting on mobile and rewrite two responsive search ads to lift Quality Score. I check Microsoft Advertising for the B2B account because Bing's older demographic converts cheaper there. After lunch I build the weekly Looker Studio report, but the GA4 conversion count doesn't match the Ads interface again, so I spend an hour reconciling attribution windows before I trust the ROAS number I'm about to send. Late afternoon is the client call where I defend the management fee against the platform spend they can see in their own login. I close by setting tomorrow's bid adjustments and noting which landing pages need the dev to fix before the next push. Every account is a separate login, a separate budget pacing curve, and a separate person waiting on a number.
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 ppc specialist'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 ppc specialist — 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.
