Looking for companies to be part of an exciting pilot this fall

We’ve been cooking up a new benefits communication solution at Benz Communications and are looking for a small (but amazing!) group of companies to pilot the product this fall.

Most of my career, I’ve worked with large organizations with complicated health care and benefits communication challenges. It is no surprise that small and mid-size organizations have almost exactly the same needs but few, if any, resources to address them. Their HR staffs are strapped, they don’t have budget for custom communication development and, as a result, their employees don’t get the same quality of information about really really important stuff like health care and retirement.

Not wanting any employee to be subjected to awful health care or benefits communication (there’s a LOT of it out there!) and not wanting smaller organizations to suffer the ills of poor communication (which usually impacts recruiting and retention), we’ve spent the last couple of years working with small and mid-size companies and looking for a scalable way to address their needs. And, we’re now ready to pilot a solution—the Benefit Communications Toolkit, which will give an HR or benefits manager everything they need to launch a successful and strategic communication campaign. It takes all of our Fortune 500-level work and repackages it for a small- or mid-sized company.

And, now, we’re looking for a small number of organizations to be part of the product pilot this fall. If you know a company who fits the description, please contact me right away!

The ideal organization has between 20 and 1,000 employees, needs additional support with benefits communication (that is pretty much every organization!) and is willing to exchange their feedback and case studies for a greatly discounted price as part of the pilot program. And, hopefully, they are as excited as we are about making this approach a huge success for small and mid-sized businesses.
