BenefitDeck: The Benefits of Being Involved with DigiBC
DigiBC is proud to have BenefitDeck as our benefits provider. As many of you may not know, becoming a DigiBC member give you access to discounted group health, dental and life insurance plans through BenefitDeck. Donald Chu is a very active DigiBC member and has been fantastic to work with. He has the knowledge and experience in the industry to provide you and your company with a comprehensive benefits plan at a cost you may not be able to negotiate on your own. We would like to thank Donald for contributing to our blog with a little about his involvement with DigiBC so far.Ā
At our office, we rarely have directives, but at our team meeting a few weeks ago, I casually mentioned:Ā āWhen Howard Donaldson calls, whatever the request, the answer is yesā. That has been BenefitDeckās approach in working with DigiBC over the last year. BenefitDeck has worked with many otherĀ associations in helping them create affordable, yet competitive employee benefit plans for theirĀ members, allowing them to attract and retain talent.Ā
Any consultant or companies in B2B will tell you that there is such a thing as the best client. In our view,Ā DigiBC is not only a client, but a model of a successful enterprise partnership.
From the start, we asked the question to Howard and the DigiBC board, how can we help DigiBC and theĀ industry grow? The answer of having an affordable benefit program for member companies, regardlessĀ of size, has come up. After much due diligence, the board has selected BenefitDeck to be their partnerĀ when it comes to providing members with employee benefit programs, and we are honoured to take onĀ that role.
Since one of our goal is to grow with DigiBC, helping their members every step of the way. A big partĀ is to be present, so that the members will find us accessible. Thatās why DigiBC members can count onĀ seeing BenefitDeck at every major networking event hosted by DigiBC.
A recap of the last yearās events includes a few highlights: Summer BBQ at EA was a lot of fun, andĀ weāre looking forward to it this year. The first ever DigiBC golf tournament was a great opportunity forĀ members to get out and enjoy the sun. Both of the State of the Industry events have generated someĀ very interesting and relevant discussions. Also, as the year rounded out with DigiBCās Christmas party,Ā we were pleased to have sponsored an oxygen bar so members can mingle and get refreshed.
It is very nice to see many familiar faces at every event, and to meet new members. The best part for usĀ is to hear the membersā story. Everyone has a story to tell: whether they are a pre-revenue startup withĀ a vision, or a company growing their team by the week, trying to get beta out. I find the story, vision andĀ drive of the founders/entrepreneurs always intriguing. At the next event, if you see me, come by to sayĀ hi, I look forward to hearing your story.
