Arizona has a 2.5% flat income tax. Flat 2.5% income tax (lowest in nation for flat-tax states). Transaction Privilege Tax (sales tax equivalent) varies by city. Phoenix TPT is 8.6%.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $888/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 first aid instructors in Chandler mix and match Calendly, Acuity Scheduling, HoneyBook, FreshBooks and other tools. That's $888/year paying for software subscriptions. Within 5 years at today's prices, those subscriptions total $4,440.
With Nexa, you own your business software. Your CRM, billing, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — unified in one platform. A single action books a client. A single action generates an invoice. No bouncing between tools. No middleware. Zero integration overhead. It's a no subscription — cut costs from day one. For first aid instructors in Chandler 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'm at a corporate office by 8 with my car full: adult and infant manikins, a bag of face shields and lung bags, AED trainers, and a box of gauze and triangular bandages. Twelve staff are booked for an on-site BLS course, so I set up stations in their conference room and check that each manikin's compression clicker works. At 9 I run the video segments and do the skills demo: scene safety, checking responsiveness and breathing, 30 compressions at 100 to 120 a minute and at least two inches deep, then two breaths with a pocket mask. Late morning is rotations. I'm on my knees correcting hand position and recoil, and calling it out when people lean on the chest. After lunch is AED practice with the trainers, two-rescuer CPR, and choking relief for adults and infants. At 3 we do bleeding control and bandaging, pressure dressings and a tourniquet station. At 5 it's the written test and the skills check-offs, one person at a time. I pack the manikins and drive home, then submit the course roster to my AHA training center, pay for the eCards, and email the contact person the completion list. Next week's public class has dropped from 8 people to 4, so I have to decide whether to hold it or move them, and I still haven't invoiced last week's two-classroom day. I also write down everyone's card expiration two years out, so I can remind them when renewal comes up.
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 first aid instructor'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 first aid instructor — 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.
