Our Philosophy
We are NOT a "one size fits all" broker, and we will not waste your time or ours.
By taking 15 minutes on the phone or in person, we will both have a good idea of whether or not we can help you. If you have an advisor, insurance provider and plan designer who does what we do, then we will tell you and be on our way. We are an independent brokerage specializing in employee benefits for small and mid-size firms, typically located in York Region.
Our goal is to provide your firm with the most practical and best value in benefits for your specific business and employee situation. We may not offer the lowest price in the marketplace, but experience reminds us that the cheapest price today
often becomes the highest renewal rate increase tomorrow.
We understand that most clients would prefer more predictable and manageable annual increases in the 4 - 6 % range. This is easier to budget for and eliminates the extra work, errors, re-education and lost productivity associated with changing insurers. We are paid standard commissions that are competitive within the industry. We do not offer “fee for service pricing” as this can be expensive when setting up new cases, exactly what we want to avoid.
Choosing a Group Benefits Broker
Your choice should NOT be based solely upon price. All brokers can obtain similar pricing and, in general, we are all paid a similar level of compensation.
Your choice should NOT be based on the insurer they represent. If a broker is truly a group specialist, they will deal with many, if not all, of the same insurers.
Your choice SHOULD be based on the broker’s knowledge, years of experience, and service commitment to you.
