Choose the partnership built for your next level

Associate Partner Consultant (APC)

Who this is for

Experienced independent consultants who want leverage, not gigs, and who are ready to be positioned to win work.

What you get

  • Priority access to opportunities before standard members
  • Profit share eligibility tied to origination, capture support, and execution leadership
  • Preferred positioning inside the Espire ecosystem
  • Business development infrastructure: capture assistance, proposal coordination, deal support
  • Quarterly strategy sessions
  • Client-facing credibility as part of a vetted, partner-level network

Why APC is different

APCs are positioned, not passive.
This is the first tier where real economic upside begins.

Principal Partner Consultant (PPC)

Who this is for

Senior consultants who want influence, leadership, and meaningful participation in shaping the ecosystem.

What you get

Everything in APC, plus:

  • First access to consulting opportunities
  • Partner-track participation in advisory and governance discussions
  • Influence over standards: pipeline quality, delivery practices, partner expectations
  • Priority consideration for internal execution leadership roles
  • Thought leadership opportunities connected to platform growth

What PPC represents

This is not premium access.
This is partner-track status.

Boutique Partner (Micro-Consultancies)

Who this is for

Micro-consultancies that want to scale beyond founder-only delivery without becoming a traditional firm.

What you get

  • Firm-level participation in Espire Collective
  • Ability to staff and lead multi-resource engagements
  • First access to larger-scope opportunities
  • Co-branding options: “Delivered by Espire Collective + [Your Firm]”
  • Firm-level BD and capture support
  • Firm-level profit share eligibility

What this unlocks

Scale without overhead.
Bigger projects without building a bloated firm.

    FAQ

    Do you offer payment plans?

    The buy-in model protects partner quality and funds the shared infrastructure. You may elect to use Klarna or After Pay as an option.

    What makes profit share possible?

    Our shared infrastructure is designed to streamline opportunity pursuits; and membership fees enable us to pass through profit share on shared engagements for our members. 

    Can I upgrade later?

    Yes. Many partners enter as Associate Partner Consultant (APC), then step into Principal Partner Consultant (PPC) or Boutique Partner Consultancy (BPC) once they want deeper influence or “Firm-wide” benefits to provide perks and enable transitional scale for larger scope opportunities.

    If you are ready to stop operating alone and start winning with support behind you, this is your lane.
