Arkansas has a 2-4.7% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 4.7%. Low cost of living. State and local sales tax combined can reach 11.5% (highest effective rate in US).
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 payment tracking, a system for jobs, or a invoicing system — most marketing consultants in Fayetteville stack up HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Calendly, QuickBooks and other tools. That's $1,092/year paying for software subscriptions. Within 5 years at today's prices, that adds up to $5,460.
With Nexa, you own your business software. Your CRM, payment tracking, scheduling, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — all in one system. One drag books a client. One drag generates an invoice. No manual re-entry. No duct-tape integrations. Zero integration overhead. It's a pay once — keep more revenue immediately. For marketing consultants in Fayetteville 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 start by triaging Slack and email across four clients, because a marketing consultant is on-call for whatever broke overnight — a Mailchimp automation that double-sent, a landing page that's converting at zero, a CEO who 'saw a competitor do something.' My first focused block is strategy: I'm in GA4 and HubSpot mapping a client's funnel because they want more leads but the real leak is in the demo-to-close stage, which isn't a top-of-funnel problem at all. I rebuild a nurture sequence and fix a Zapier connection that silently stopped passing leads to their CRM two weeks ago — two weeks of leads I have to apologize for. Midday is a discovery call with a prospect; I scope carefully because the last 'small retainer' became me running an entire department. Afternoon, I switch into a different client's stack — different naming conventions, different logins, different broken automations — and build a campaign in Canva and Mailchimp. Late day I write the monthly report and brace for the client who measures success by feel and will say leads are 'down' when they're up but slower-closing. Before I shut the laptop I send two invoices, knowing one client's accounts-payable will sit on it for forty-five days. Scope, stack, and getting paid — those are the three fights underneath the actual marketing.
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 marketing consultant'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 marketing consultant — 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.
