Minnesota has a 5.35-9.85% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 9.85% (one of highest in US). High quality of life attracts talent. Minneapolis-St. Paul is major metro. Cold climate increases operating costs.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $636/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 payment tracking, a system for jobs, or a invoicing system — most athletic trainers in Bloomington stack up Acuity Scheduling, Vagaro, Square, Calendly and other tools. That's $636/year on recurring software. Within 5 years at today's prices, that adds up to $3,180.
With Nexa, you own your business software. Your CRM, payment tracking, scheduling, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — all in one system. One tap books a client. One tap generates an invoice. No bouncing between tools. No integration hacks. Zero integration overhead. It's a no subscription — keep more revenue immediately. For athletic trainers in Bloomington 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.
You're in the training room before practice, taping ankles in an assembly line while athletes file through, each one a quick check-in: how's the hamstring, did you ice last night, range of motion any better. A field hockey player limps in needing an evaluation, so you run her through the special tests, decide it's a grade-one sprain not a tear, and start her on the early rehab protocol. The unpredictability is the job, because the moment a game starts, your plan is whatever happens on the field; a player goes down hard and you're sprinting out, clearing the scene, ruling out anything serious before you decide whether she walks off or stays still. Between events you're chasing documentation, because every eval and treatment has to be written up for liability and for the physician who'll make the clearance call, and during a busy season that paperwork stacks up fast. You're juggling a dozen athletes at different return-to-play stages, the one cleared for non-contact, the one two weeks out, the one you're holding back even though the coach wants him. You field a parent asking about their kid's concussion timeline and a coach asking who's available Friday, and you walk the line of what you're allowed to share. By the time the last athlete's been treated, you're restocking the kit and finishing notes you didn't have time for at noon.
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 an athletic trainer'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 an athletic trainer — 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.
