Benefits Think To win accounts, stop competing

Published 4 Min Read

  • Collaborate for success. Small to mid-size independent can no longer go it alone. David Rine Insurance is part of a national mastermind network of innovative and forward-thinking agency leaders who consistently win business from the bigger agencies and average more than 25% organic growth annually. These agency leaders meet quarterly to collaborate on proven growth strategies and agency best practices and to innovate solutions to their challenges and problems.
  • Rewrite the rules of the game. Rine doesn’t compete directly with other firms, avoiding the status quo trade-off between cost and quality of benefits. Moving into the C-suite for strategic conversations, Rine ignores the status quo rules and shows the CEO or CFO a value proposition that reduces the benefits spend while improving the benefits.
  • Innovate “next practices.” Industry “best practices” simply maintain the benefits status quo, which is becoming unsustainable. Rine and other NextGeneration Benefits Firms are developing “next practices” that truly change the game for employers and employees. Using strategies and tools for cost-containment, employee engagement and business efficiency, they deliver meaningful results to the client, not renewal increases.
