ACTIV8 UNDERSTANDS BENEFITS
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT WITH A PARTNERSHIP WITH ACTIV8
Our years of experience and attention to detail will provide you with confidence in making sound decisions when creating and managing your total rewards benefits package.
When you partner with Activ8, you’re partnering with professionals that care about you, your business, and your employees.
Our proven process describes the individual steps we’ll take together to ensure success, and keep your employees and your bottom-line happy.
1.
Ask & Listen
Asking great, detailed questions is important in our discovery to uncover needs and requirements from our clients. However, listening is the most important part of this duo; listening to what you are saying, how you are saying it, and what you are not saying.
2.
Analyze & Define
This is where we do the heavy lifting. We take the information we gathered from phase one and combine it with almost 20 years of combined market experience to identify the best solutions for our clients.
3.
Present & Educate
Our goal is to create a paradigm shift in the way that traditional benefits broker/consultants and employers approach, distribute, and manage their Total Rewards package. We are employee benefits communication and engagement architects committed to maximizing employee recruitment and retention of employees across an organization’s multi-generational makeup.
4.
Implement & Adopt
Some will say this is the hardest part of the process. It is challenging because it requires getting uncomfortable, working hard, and possibly making significant changes. Managing change has been identified by many as the reason why so many initiatives are not fully executed to their fullest potential. We can stay with you not just to help with the initial adoption but to manage the change.
5.
Support & Modify
Even with the best strategies in place, there will be an adjustment period and necessary changes to some of the processes. We are willing to partner with you beyond the implementation to assist with any updates and adjustments required for your long-term success.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Holly on several of my business clients’ company plans, and she has been a tremendous resource. She’s able to maneuver through the complexities of group benefits with ease and guide my clients through the decision-making process in an easy to understand way. I highly recommend her.
I have been engaged with Activ8 Benefits Consulting for the past 3 years, and Holly is one of my most trusted partners. Specifically, I have worked with Holly in various collaborations for the past 15 years. Her expertise and experience can be counted on in relationship to Voluntary Benefit strategies, employee engagement, communication, and worksite marketing. I have found Activ8 to be engaged, detail-oriented, professional, and incredibly responsive.
One of the biggest positives of my partnership with Activ8, is the freedom and flexibility my staff has to focus on other areas of our business, particularly since our organization is heavily focused on healthcare strategies and outcomes. We can trust Holly to act on our behalf as we would one of our employees, delivering the best possible strategy and outcome for our clients related to Voluntary Benefits.
I highly recommend Activ8 as a partner you can count on for your clients.
I can’t say enough positive things about Holly’s knowledge and professionalism. Voluntary Benefits can be a complicated matter, but her expertise along the way made it a seamless process.
Holly works tirelessly for both you and your client, delivering the best in class for each product. Her finished, professional RFP work makes it very easy to present detailed information to the client.
You can also turn over open enrollment to her and be assured it is handled with no pressure on the employees. The education she provides is second to none.
After having worked with Holly on several client projects, she is my “go to expert” for Voluntary Benefits.
Carving out a niche in the field of employee benefits takes a lot of vision and focus. Holly exudes these qualities which helps her partners and clients maximize understanding, and in turn, appreciation for and participation in all employee benefits. Her comprehensive carrier and platform evaluations routinely lead to a tailor-made fit for employers, carriers, and consultants alike. Achieving high levels of engagement is a reflection of the strategy, meticulous planning, communication and execution that Holly brings to the table. It is rewarding to have a skilled and invested partner like Holly joining me every step of the way.
As the owner of a benefit enrollment services company I look for broker partners who understand the voluntary benefits industry and the services that can be offered to clients by combining the services of an enrollment company and voluntary benefits and teaching employers the buying power they have to bring quality solutions and service that have a meaningful impact on the employees and the employer. I have worked with Holly and her team for 12 years and she definitely meets all of our standards as a premier partner! If you are looking to partner with an industry leader who is extremely knowledgeable about the voluntary benefits industry I highly recommend Holly Overdyke and her team!
Holly and the team at Activ8 helped our firm accomplish an extremely difficult enrollment involving a NYC based grocery food store with 20 different locations and multiple languages. The complexity of this enrollment required a project manager to coordinate with the carriers, technology vendors, and enrollment firms and this isn’t a role that we normally staff. Relying on Holly and her team to integrate with our account management team and the client, ensured a successful enrollment for the client and optimized the use of our time as a benefits consultant.
Holly Brown-Overdyke has so many amazing talents. She has the ability to service her clients in a very unique way. Holly has a deep understanding of the benefits market but still has an insatiable appetite to continue to learn. Through learning and in practice she has created a vast network. Holly leverages very strategically her knowledge as well as her expansive network to create and drive a solution for her clients. From our perspective, we are amazed at her knowledge in HR and Benefit Technology but she always knows when to engage her partners to influence the best results and outcomes for her clients.
Holly Overdyke with Activ8 has assisted many of my clients with her extensive knowledge of the benefits world and its role in HR. She has helped to improve their open enrollment process and educated the HR teams around benefit solutions for their companies. This has been key in helping to retain employees as well as negotiating technology credits for our mutual clients from the insurance carriers. Holly’s unique strategy has also allowed her to be an additional arm to my benefit broker partners– ensuring the transition period goes smoothly. I would highly recommend any HR leader or benefit broker to hire Activ8 to help fill the gaps between the medical industry and their business!
