You're not the only one who's had enough.
Test Prep Tutors face unique challenges: Seasonal demand around SAT/ACT/GRE test dates. Package pricing with session tracking per student. Score improvement tracking to justify premium rates. Parents as billing contacts while students are the clients. On top of all that, Acuity Scheduling charges $33/month ($396/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median test prep tutor earns $50,000/year. Software at $396/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Practice test materials and licenses is yours. You bought it once. Helix works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
Acuity Scheduling is just one piece. What else are you losing money on?
