Be a Supporting Member
PIA member agencies are from all areas of the state, are of every size and mix of business that you can imagine. PIA's Supporting Members help PIA provide the highest quality information, education, and services to our members.
Single Investment
Supporting Membership allows supporters to combine their membership dues and event sponsorships into one simple investment. With this one-time payment, you will receive sponsorship of all PIA events, pay your dues, get generous recognition and receive discounts on advertising, webinars, trade show booths and more.
Levels of Supporting Membership
PIA Supporting Membership is available at the Platinum, Gold or Silver Levels and is the most convenient option to handle your activities for the year at one time. Each level includes sponsorship at PIA events throughout the year, recognition in the Wisconsin Professional Agent and at events, free event registration/s, paid member status at PIA events and much more!
A single invoice will be sent in December or January and covers the entire year. Check the tables below to compare the offerings each level of Supporting Membership provides. If you prefer to select an ala carte schedule for dues, sponsorships, and registrations instead, additional information can be found at the bottom of the page.
