Offering a benefits plan that takes care of the employee and doesn’t break the bank, that’s the dream.

Allison De Paoli (dih-PAULY) wants every employer she works with to be in complete control of their healthcare spend – driving the maximum value from every dollar and allowing those saved dollars to grow the business and the bottom line. AND she’d like to deliver a world-class benefits program to those employees. Understanding how to drive those savings while finding a world class benefits package can be intimidating. Few insurance professionals understand how to get under the hood and tinker to make the plan work better. Allison does. And she’s here today to show us how.

Brook Borup
Have you ever been in a job that you loved and hated at the same time? The feeling that every day you were doing your best to meet the approval of those who wrote your paycheck, but never really feeling that it was secure enough to depend on? That’s the story of Brook Borup, CEO of My Clone Solution and creator of "In the Trenches MBA" on Youtube. While the systems, processes and productivity solutions of corporate America were an amazing foundation, they were often lacking in flexibility and even more lacking in common sense that should have guided the decisions being handed down manager to manager. After 15 years supporting all levels of management from Sales Managers to CEO’s, enough was enough. Enough of the rules that made no sense, beating heads against the wall when change could not be effected; enough of being taken for granted by the people that were essentially controlling life in all aspects, living paycheck to paycheck at their beck and call. Brook’s understanding of both the entrepreneurial spirit, but also the struggles that come along with being a small business owner are what make her so great at helping those that chose the life of an entrepreneur. Brook understands that when you work with small business owners the stakes are higher because every penny they spend on your product or service could be a child’s dance lessons, food on the table, advertising for more business or the family vacation they have not had in five years. Delegation is a skill that is learned from necessity and loved by all who can learn it. Once you get the hang of it, it is then about managing the process, not doing it. What you don’t know can hurt you… Brook is impassioned to effect positive change to the struggling entrepreneur.

Christina Daves
I'm Christina Daves, serial entrepreneur, award-winning inventor, and the founder of CastMedic Designs. I came up with the idea after a broken foot left me in an awful walking medical boot, the day before I was headed to New York City, Fashion Capital of the World. Having previously owned an upscale boutique, I thought I would be able to find something... anything to make the boot look somewhat fashion-forward. Realizing there was nothing available, I started designing cuffs and accessories to take the boot from a casual affair to the office to formal events with styles for both children and adults. These products allow the injured to heal in style. An injury shouldn’t get in the way of looking and healing your best and my mission is to turn recovery into a fabulous fashion experience by allowing the injured to experience The Healing Power of Fashion® With no budget in CastMedic for publicity, I taught myself everything I could about PR and in less than one year appeared in over 50 media outlets (including national and local television, national magazines and newspapers, and syndicated radio).

Jim saw weak problem solving & communication skills among recent grads. He wasn’t alone. In a PayScale study, 60% of managers say grads lack problem solving skills. 40% say they can’t write. Yet, 80% of grads say they’re proficient in both. A “skills gap.” A Gallup / Inside Higher Ed study shows 96% of Chief Academic Officers say their college was effective at preparing students for work. Only 33% of managers agreed. A bigger “skills gap.” Cost to companies is lower productivity and required remedial training. Therefore, Jim wrote Get Your Ducks In A Rowe.

Joe Di Santo
Joe DiSanto spent his childhood riding BMX bikes, breakdancing, and memorizing 80’s movies, but the carefree days of youth wouldn’t last long. By 13 he was working as a busboy, helping his recently divorced mom, and picking up some of his own tab. A valuable lesson was learned: If you don’t deal with your money, your money will deal with you. From that point on, he made it his mission to learn everything he could about making smart money moves. It paid off. By age 30, Joe had wiped out $70k in student loans, bought his first house, and started a post-production company in Los Angeles. Over the next decade, the company grew to 30+ employees with over 5 million in annual revenue, while producing two critically-acclaimed documentaries and an Emmy-winning HBO series. During this time, he and his wife also transacted on 15 residential and commercial real estate properties. But nothing had more life-changing impact than the birth of their son. After a successful 19-year run in L.A., the couple decided to slow down and invest in their new family. They cashed out of the business and bought into small-town life on the Florida coast. Having semi-retired at age 43, Joe’s efforts are now focused on his educational blog Play Louder, where he shares a lifetime of fiscal know-how to help individuals and business owners navigate their finances, increase their net worth, and plan better for their future.
