MISSION

Our mission is to differentiate and brand our voluntary benefits organization as being world class. We work with brokers and larger organizations on a peer basis and have formed this elite marketing cooperative to distinguish our approach as progressive and professional. We communicate on our internal intranet to coordinate multi-state enrollments and share the "best of breed" ideas. We share common values and prefer working with agents or brokers that are NAPES Certified Enrollment Specialists.

We are a permission marketing company and our web site sends us an inquiry from an employer we route that inquiry to a qualified local agent that specializes in supplemental plans. In addition we maintain a database of employer feedback to ensure quality controls on agents that recieve inquiries. As an employer, you can have a higher level of confidence that the local agent will not have a history of negative reports and remain in the program.

Why do business with us?

1. Experience - Agents accepted in to The Benefits Network are either in the top quintile of performers or have a minimum of two years experience as an independent agent with our voluntary carrier. Collectively we understand the needs of the large account and broker market. We recognize the hesitancy that brokers face when introducing another agent into their accounts. Brokers want to be absolutely positive that they are represented well. We offer an exceptionally senior approach and can interface at the Fortune 100 board level if needed.

2. Stability -We work with established agencies that have a minimum of two years experience in their market. Large accounts and brokers want to be certain that we will be there to service their accounts long after the initial enrollment is complete. Most brokers have a desk full of newly minted "broker specialists" cards for voluntary products, half of which go to numbers no longer in service.

3. Prestige - Large accounts and brokers want to be sure that they are offering the best products for the best value. Our carrier has more market-share than the next three largest carriers combined. Last year they handled over 4 million calls at their call center and paid most claims in under four days.

4. Protection - We are specialists in the large account market, we recognize that we have an obligation to respect the accounts that our brokers have contact with and protect that relationship.

5. Profits - We have a professional paperless system that simplifies the process and has been time tested to yield the maximum participation with the lowest amount of overhead required from your client. Don't fool yourself by only looking at the commission percentage and taking the highest figure, look at the net dollars in your pocket by having a professional enrollment that maximizes the yield in a large account. When compared to professional enrollment firms, who will provide better service? A swat team that is flown in for the enrollment each year or a local representative that can service the account each month?
