Going independent can be a rewarding career choice. But at some point, most people experience FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt).
Building a successful consulting career isn't easy - there's a lot to figure out. We know it's hard to find relevant resources and accurate answers. That's why we created PICA.
You deserve to have the support you need when you need it.
Watch this 90-second video to see what we're all about.
With PICA in your corner the unknowns become less scary,
and you can build the career of your dreams.
"PICA helped me step out on my own to get my first direct client contract without going through an agency. I'm so excited to not be giving up that 30-35% to the agency; that's money going to me now!"
Nicole Sroka, Mind Moves
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:
"I'm so grateful to have PICA as an invaluable resource. When I won my first big contract, I was a little overwhelmed by all the details. PICA's resources and coaching were invaluable, saving me loads of time and stress. Perhaps most important, I now have the confidence to go forward, knowing that if I have a question at any time I can turn to PICA for help."

"I love having my own consulting business but it can be isolating at times. I'm so glad I joined PICA! It's a fantastic resource with a helpful community of other independent consultants, and the workshops and coaching have helped me ask for the rate I know I'm worth!"

Being self-employed gives you a tremendous amount of freedom and opportunity.
To be successful, you need to know what to do. When you don't, the FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) starts to creep in.
Let PICA be your guide, and conquer your FUD!
