Expediter Services’ Second IN-SITE 2020 Webinar To Focus On Partnering With The Right Motor Carrier Within The COVID-19 Era

Leave a comment


Expediter Services will be hosting the second edition of the IN-SITE 2020 Webinar Series on August 25th with a panel of trucking industry experts.

We are continuing to highlight topics that can be helpful to professional drivers, owner-operators and independent contract drivers working within trucking during COVID-19. __ ES President Jason Williams


MEMPHIS, Tenn. (PRWEB)

Expediter Services (ES), a leader in capacity solutions and ownership opportunities within the trucking industry, is pleased to announce the company will be presenting the second edition in the IN-SITE 2020 Webinar Series. The webinar, entitled Trucking in the COVID-19 Era: Partnering with the Right Motor Carrier, will focus on how the partner carriers in the ES Community have adjusted to the challenges the industry has encountered so far in the COVID-19 era. It will also examine the challenges and opportunities now found during these times for those professional drivers who are considering becoming owner-operators.

The one-hour, live broadcast of the webinar will take place on Tuesday, August 25th at 2:00 p.m. EDT. The online replay for the second webinar in the IN-SITE 2020 Webinar Series will be available approximately two hours following the conclusion of the live event. Both the live event and replay are free to all registrants.

Following the blueprint that helped provide ES with a successful debut of the IN-SITE 2020 Series in July, ES has once again assembled an expert panel that will be participating in our August edition of the webinar. For the upcoming live event, ES will be taking a slightly different approach than the company utilized in the debut of the IN-SITE 2020 series. Rather than ask the expert panelists to share their insights through a traditional presentation format, the Partnering with the Right Motor Carrier webinar will be a Q&A session.

Leah Shaver, the President and CEO of the National Transportation Institute, will serve as the moderator for the discussion with the ES carrier partners. Leah, who also serves as a host on SiriusXM’s Road Dog Trucking Radio Channel 146, will be leading the discussion in the style of a fireside chat, highlighting how the partner carriers in the ES Community are moving forward with their operations and meeting the needs of the professional drivers in their respective fleets.

“In our planning for our initial webinar series, we decided to place our focus on topics that could be helpful to professional drivers, owner-operators and independent contract drivers working within an industry that is adjusting to trucking in the COVID-19 era,” said ES President Jason Williams. “At ES, we have been fortunate to build strong relationships with a number of motor carriers over the years, and, through our second webinar, we wanted to provide our carrier partners within our ES Community the opportunity to discuss how they are meeting the needs of both their customers and the professional drivers in their fleets in 2020, a year that’s unlike any we’ve seen in this industry.”

The August 25th webinar hosted by ES will include participation from FedEx Custom Critical, Forward Air and Panther Premium, a Service of ArcBest. All three motor carriers have established long relationships with ES and the ES Community. Nick Burch, the Director of Recruiting for Panther Premium, Ryan Gilliam, the Vice President of Talent for Forward Air, and Zak Mattocks, Managing Director of Operations for FedEx Custom Critical, will be the carrier panelists for the August edition of the webinar. Ms. Shaver, Mr. Williams and Jeff Tacker, the Chief Operating Officer of ES, will also be a part of the expert panel on August 25th.

Registrations for the live event in August and access to the replay of the webinar are available through the following link:

In addition to the webinar series, IN-SITE 2020 is continuing to add episodes to a podcast series which features panelists from the webinar series and other experts providing in-depth discussions on the key issues of the day facing owner-operators, fleet owners and independent professional drivers considering truck ownership opportunities. To access the catalog of podcasts from the IN-SITE 2020 Online Series and to learn about other aspects of the overall program, click on the following link: https://essuccessintrucking.com/insite2020/.

ES has planned a series of three webinars for the initial rollout of IN-SITE 2020. The debut edition of the IN-SITE 2020 Webinar Series, Trucking in the COVID-19 Era: Starting & Building Your Own Trucking Business, was broadcast live on July 21st. The debut webinar was well-received by live attendees and by those who have watched the webcast through a replay. The July webinar remains available to the public through the replay link.

Benefit Advisors Network, Rain Partnerto Give Workers Early Access to Wages

Leave a comment


According to a study by CareerBuilder, 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. As a result, financial wellness tools are becoming a vitally important part of any employee benefits package.


CLEVELAND (PRWEB)

Benefit Advisors Network (BAN), a national network of independent employee benefit firms, is pleased to announce that it has created a strategic partnership with Rain, whose mission is to improve financial wellness and increase worker productivity by giving employees full control over their income, putting an end to predatory financial products and practices.

Under the terms of the new partnership, BAN’s 120+ member firms nationwide can provide the Rain Instant Pay App, which provides early wage access for employees at mid- to large-sized organizations across the United States.

“According to a study by CareerBuilder, 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck,” says Taylor Constantine, the head of Rain’s Partner Program. “As a result, financial wellness tools are becoming a vitally important part of any employee benefits package. Such tools not only help an organization’s employees during tough times, but also lead to increased productivity.”

Continues Constantine, “Particularly at a time when the American workforce needs solutions like earned wage access, we are excited to partner with Benefit Advisors Network as we begin the process of working with multiple member agencies. We look forward to being a part of the Benefit Advisors Network organization as a long-term partner.”

The Rain Instant Pay app allows employees to withdraw advances against their upcoming paychecks. The capital is provided by Rain, which is then reimbursed according to the employer’s pay schedule.

“This is not a loan and there is no interest,” Constantine explains. “Employees simply pay a small fee for the service, which is significantly healthier than taking a payday loan.”

Other benefits of the Rain Instant Pay App include the following:

  • There is no change in cash flow;

  • The App works with current payroll and timekeeping software;

  • There is no cost for businesses to implement the App;

  • Regular use results in reduced employee turnover and increased job applications;

  • Employers realize improved job performance and pick up more shifts;

  • The App usage leads to a reduction in no-call no-shows.

Over the next few months, Rain will also launch a new pay card program which can be used to replace employer’s current pay card programs or provide a pay card solution for those who do not currently have one.

“Adding Rain to our Partner relationships strengthens BAN’s Lead2Health resources available for our member’s clients. When an employee has money problems, they can endure ongoing stress, which impacts their health and in turn, the workplace. A corporate philosophy which includes the financial wellbeing of its workforce translates into an efficiently operating business. RAIN provides such support to an employer’s holistic wellbeing culture,” says Bobbi Kloss, BAN’s Director of Human Capital Management Services.

“Our industry is highly competitive and changes almost daily,” says Perry Braun, Executive Director of the Benefit Advisors Network. “As a result, it is critical that we continue to provide our member firms with the necessary tools, such as the Rain Instant Pay App, to further enhance the value they bring to their employer clients while also accelerating their individual firm’s growth.”

About BAN

Founded in 2002, BAN is an exclusive, premier, national network of independent, employee benefit brokerage and consulting companies. BAN delivers industry leading tools, technology, and expertise to member firms so that they can deliver optimum results to their employee benefit customers. BAN intentionally limits membership because of the highly collaborative interactions. For more information, visit the Company’s website at http://www.benefitadvisorsnetwork.com.

About Rain

The Rain Instant Pay app provides early wage access for employees at mid to large-sized organizations across the United States to improve financial wellness and increase employee productivity. Rain’s mission is to regrow financial freedom by giving people full control over their income and to put an end to predatory financial products, replacing them with on-demand pay.

Poms & Associates Named a Top Insurance Workplace for 2020 by Insurance Business America

“Our recognition as a Top Insurance Workplace proves that when you’re focused on the things that matter most – employing great people and providing them with the tools and resources for realizing their potential – success follows.” – Dave Poms, founder and president of Poms & Associates


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Poms & Associates, an independent, full-service insurance brokerage and risk management firm, announced today it has been named one of 2020’s Top Insurance Workplaces by Insurance Business America (IBA).

IBA’s Top Insurance Workplaces each year recognizes companies in the insurance industry that excel above all others. According to IBA: “To be a truly great workplace, a company must provide several things to its employees. Some are basic: competitive salary and benefits, the technology and resources required to do their job, a safe work environment. Others are less easily quantifiable: an inclusive and welcoming culture, flexibility to adapt to employees’ unique needs, an atmosphere that promotes honesty and encourages growth.” Nationwide, only 67 companies achieved the distinction of being named a Top Insurance Workplace for 2020 by IBA.

“We’ve worked hard at Poms & Associates to create a diverse and inclusive workplace where every employee is recognized as a distinct talent and there’s unrelenting support and encouragement for professional and personal growth,” said Dave Poms, founder and president of Poms & Associates. “Our recognition as a Top Insurance Workplace proves that when you’re focused on the things that matter most – employing great people and providing them with the tools and resources for realizing their potential – success follows.”

Poms & Associates is a leading independent, full-service insurance brokerage and risk management firm with a proven track record of providing innovative and customized solutions to businesses in high-risk industries. Founded in 1991, the company was built on the premise that knowledge is the best insurance – that is, the best way to help businesses and organizations is to serve not only as an insurance broker but also as an educator about best practices in how to reduce risk and prevent loss before an incident occurs.

Poms & Associates today offers a wide range of products and services, including property and casualty insurance for commercial organizations and public entities, risk control, human resources and employee benefits and private services for high net-worth individuals. Poms & Associates today is among the top 50 privately held brokerage firms in the U.S. with six branch offices in three states.
