Oklahoma has a 0.25-4.75% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 4.75%. Low cost of living. Oil and gas economy. Tulsa and OKC are primary markets. No local income taxes.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $1,356/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 solution for jobs, or a invoicing system — most mural painters in Broken Arrow juggle HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Toggl Track, Harvest and other monthly services. That's $1,356/year in SaaS payments. Over 5 years at today's prices, that stack costs $6,780.
Nexa gives you the ability to stop renting software. Your CRM, invoice management, booking, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — in a single solution. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No duct-tape integrations. No sync fees. It's a lifetime license — cut costs the moment you switch. For mural painters in Broken Arrow 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 mural day starts by checking the forecast before anything else, because I paint outdoors and a surprise afternoon storm can ruin fresh acrylic and blow a day I've already booked. If the weather holds, the real first work is prep that the client never pictures: I pressure-wash the wall, patch the cracks and spalling, and prime the whole surface, because color laid over a dirty or chalky exterior peels within a season. I scale the design up, often projecting it onto the wall after dark the night before and chalking the grid, because freehanding a thirty-foot figure to the right proportion is how you end up with a wonky face visible from the highway. Then I'm up on scaffolding or a lift, blocking in the large fields with a sprayer and switching to brushes and cans for detail, constantly stepping back across the street to check that the scale reads from a distance. Midday the sun moves and the heat speeds drying, so I chase shade and adjust. There's always a logistics layer humming underneath, the property owner's sign-off, the city permit, the sidewalk closure, and the client assumes I'm handling all of it. Before I leave each day I tarp my materials, and on the final day I roll on a UV and anti-graffiti sealant so the piece survives the weather and the taggers, then I photograph it in good light for my portfolio and the client's records.
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 mural painter'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 mural painter — 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.
