“In a benefits and wellness consultant role in the large employer market having the opportunity to introduce an entire wellness program in one communication piece is an incredible vehicle to offer our clients.”

“One of the unintended benefits of the story selection process is that we’ve come up with stories that have appealed to our staffs personal interests where we thought we maybe didn’t have any. The stories have been well researched and have turned into a resource and tool that we’ve been able to carry through our whole program.”

“We have a vehicle that goes out to all of our staff and we need to educate them on how to make a good decision in terms of them being healthy and getting help right away and how they can limit their out of pocket costs so that they have money for other needs their families have.”

“Healthy employees make for a healthy workplace which makes for happy everything. The healthier the teacher the less money spent on substitutes, on other things. So in many ways spending on health care saves your district some money.”
