The 2014 Benefits Selling Expo marked a big milestone: We celebrated our 10th show. And there was plenty to celebrate.

The expo, held April 1-3 in Colorado Springs, Colo., followed the March 31 deadline of open enrollment in PPACA plans. Keynote speakers Mike Huckabee, a onetime GOP frontrunner for president; Robert Gibbs, former White House press secretary and Obama advisor; and Tom Tancredo, a former Colorado congressman, explained the implications of PPACA — the good, bad and the ugly.

And at the show, Ed Oravetz, president and senior benefits consultant at Visicor in Friendswood, Texas, was named Benefits Selling's 2014 Broker of the Year.
