How do Benefits Advisors Help?
In today’s market, a robust benefits plan is essential to attracting and retaining high-quality talent. Benefits advisors can help you implement a plan for the first time, negotiate renewals on an existing plan, and benchmark a current plan against others in your industry.
Quick Tip: some of these firms provide their expertise as a fee-for-service (typically Consultants and Advisors) while others receive a commission paid directly from the chosen insurer (Advisors and Brokers). Be sure to ask the advisor when you contact them.
