What Clients Say

I have worked with Betsy Leach and Group Benefit Strategies for more than 7 years.  I have always found their service to be exceptional and their partnership beneficial.  There is no question ever that they are our advocate and professional trusted partner.  The benefit rules and regulations are complex, you need a partner like Betsy and GBS.

We have partnered with Betsy Leach and her team for over 15 years. Group Benefit Strategies provides so much more than just the mechanics of benefits. They create an exceptional client experience that differentiates them from their competition. This is accomplished through a deep relationship that they build with each of their clients to ensure they get to know the leadership and have a clear understanding of the strategic objectives. It is a privilege to work with GBS!

In 2007 I engaged GBS as our company’s 401K broker and was very pleased with their professionalism and attention to the smallest details that made my life in HR much easier.  Several years later when our company was split and sold, I requested that they not only set up the 401K plan for the spin-off company, but also provide a bid for the insurance offerings.  I was both shocked and thrilled to see that their innovative approach would result in six digits savings for us.  I have since moved to a new employer, but I took GBS with me.  They, again, found savings of over six digits for my new company.

Wherever my HR career may take me, GBS will always be my broker of choice.  I would highly recommend their services to any employer.
