The Horton Group Approach

Listening & Following Through

Listening first allows us to successfully identify pain points and understanding what is working and what is not. We will react when appropriate, provide value, and follow through on time when clients request advice – not the other way around.

Relationship-Building

We understand that clients have many choices in benefits consultants. We differentiate ourselves with our ability to build meaningful, trusting relationships with our clients. Our clients believe in us to help them make informed decisions regarding the health and retirement benefits of their members, families, and retirees.

Flexibility

Our clients have varying needs, and we respond to those needs with services best suited for each fund. Our clients also have budgets – some bigger, some smaller. Fees will never be a reason Horton is not selected.

Speak with a Multiemployer Team Member

Whether you are a Fund Administrator, Attorney, Trustee or Auditor, our team is ready to discuss our services with you.

We get it – you’re not just searching for an insurance broker. You’re looking for a partner. One who cares and promises to always have your back versus just putting a policy in place.

Horton is owned by the people who work inside the business each and every day. This means we know how you want to feel taken care of. We know what it feels like to want someone to ‘go to the mat’ and handle challenges with urgency. We know how it feels when someone does the right thing for you. This is why we invest in relationships, care unconventionally and remain purposefully driven.
