While constantly juggling multiple roles, they can sometimes find themselves overwhelmed. Advisors have an opportunity to step in and be an additional resource to help small-business owners manage their administrative needs.

With so many partners, policy options, laws and regulations involved, the administrative task behind managing health benefits for employees is no easy feat. By providing time-saving solutions, advisors can enable small-business owners to relinquish certain responsibilities while they focus on other aspects of their business. These solutions could include:

Benefits administration tools: Choosing technology solutions that feature a range of benefits choices in one centralized system provides small-business decision makers with the resources they need to keep employees in the loop about benefits and other HR needs year-round. Look for options that are easy to navigate, offer customizable features and a variety of benefits functionality — from enrollment to communication and reporting. Introducing time-saving options can help advisors further prove their value as a trusted provider of benefits solutions to help meet clients’ ever-changing needs.
