We've Walked In Your Shoes
PICA was started by independent consultants who have been advising professionals like you for over 10 years.
We know from personal experience the challenges of being independent. That's why we started PICA: to help you feel more confident, avoid costly mistakes, and make smart business decisions.
When you join PICA, you'll get:
- Everything you need to know to set yourself up for success.
- Exclusive PICA partner services and discounts
- Coaching and advice when you need it
- Access to a larger community of consulting professionals
"Having spent most of my professional life working for large corporations, PICA prepared me to launch as an independent business owner and I feel I have made some great friends in the process."
