Attracting & retaining talent

Your benefits guidance can help your SBO clients compete for and retain talent

Many business owners believe their companies are too small to afford employee benefits. Over time, that assumption can put them at a disadvantage—especially as talented employees are drawn to competitors that offer retirement plans or supplemental health benefits. In today’s market, talent care is the new ROI.

You can help close the benefits gap for your clients. Business owners who work with a financial professional:

• Report 50% better hiring success
• Are three times more likely to hire new workers
• Are five times more likely to fast-track employee retention strategies

As a trusted resource on the owner’s advisory team, you can help build a compelling business case for strategic benefits planning. Well-designed benefits packages not only attract new talent; they also play a critical role in protecting key employees. Many of these individuals are like family—having helped build the business and serve clients for years. You can help ensure they are supported, valued, and positioned to share in the company’s continued success.
