How to Take Benefits Comms From Ignored to Impossible to Ignore With Amanda Lindsay
bswift's Amanda Lindsay joins Joel to make the case that benefits communication is a marketing discipline, not a box to check. With a background in employer branding and employee experience, Amanda explains why the average worker tunes out, how to reach a workforce that never opens email, and what a genuinely creative open enrollment campaign can look like. They also get candid about where AI belongs in the comms process, why applying it wrong can harm trust, and how year-round personalization connects employees to benefits they might otherwise miss.
