Today, we are officially launching our new company, PeopleKeep. Read on for more information about PeopleKeep and what this means for you.
While working with small businesses for nearly a decade, our team discovered a big problem: After wages, benefits were the top influencer for where we work, yet every year, fewer and fewer small businesses were offering benefits. We soon realized what small businesspeople have known for years: Offering traditional group benefits sucked because they were too expensive, too complex, and too one-size-fits-all. It wasn’t that small businesses didn’t want to offer benefits. It was that they couldn’t. They needed a new way that was simple, painless, and personal. PeopleKeep was founded in June 2015 to create this new way called personalized benefits. Our personalized benefits automation software helps small businesses save time, save money, and worry less.
Ready to offer a QSEHRA for your small business?
Offering traditional group benefits sucks. Why? They’re too expensive, too complex, and too one-size-fits-all. Over the last 15 years, group health insurance costs have tripled. Today, less than 50 percent of small businesses offer group health insurance, and less than 15 percent offer a 401(k). Recent reforms have only made it harder, and costs are expected to continue to rise. After wages, benefits are the top influencer for where we work. Yet every year, fewer and fewer small businesses are able to use benefits to hire and keep their people. UNTIL NOW.
We’ve come up with a new way called personalized benefits. Most people believe benefits are the services a company offers, such as a health insurance plan or 401(k). With personalized benefits, it’s the opposite. Companies give employees tax-free money to spend on the consumer services they find most valuable. It’s as simple as wages. The company sets a monthly benefit allowance, and employees buy what fits their personal needs. This saves companies and employees an average of 35 percent in taxes compared with wages while avoiding the pains of offering traditional group benefits.
PeopleKeep’s mission is to personalize benefits for small businesses because:
We envision a solution that allows small businesses to define a monthly benefit allowance that employees personalize across all benefits (health, retirement, education, cell phone, transportation, etc.) based on their family’s needs.
Personalized benefits are a new way to offer benefits.
