At ConnectYourCare, we are committed to supporting brokers and advisors across the country, but we’re also lucky to have a few of those partnerships right in our backyard. We recently had a chance to talk with our longstanding partner, KELLY Benefit Strategies, one of the nation’s largest providers of benefits administration and technology, broker and consulting services, and payroll solutions.

Talking Shop with the Vice President at KELLY Benefit Strategies

In this interview, John Newcome, Vice President and Consultant at KELLY, sheds light on the company’s keys to success, how they’ve evolved over the years, and where he thinks the benefits industry is headed. We also discuss how a symbiotic broker/provider relationship ensures that employers have access to strategic, cost-effective solutions, while also providing employees benefits that are effective, easy to use, and allow them to feel supported.

In the process, John shares his experience working with ConnectYourCare and how our solutions run parallel with KELLY’s offerings.

Some other themes that came up during our discussion include:

How important technology is key for integrated benefits solutions
The changes happening in the benefits industry regarding new legislation and greater complexity
How the broker, client, and benefits provider have to be aligned—not only in terms of needs and offerings—but also in company feel and philosophy

A Great Read for Any Benefits Broker

We found our interview with the John to be eye-opening and beneficial for any broker looking to grow their organization or expand their offerings.
