Our Story

Simplifying Insurance

Strategic Benefits was created to give people the kind of help we couldn’t find when we were on the other side of the table. From our start in Greenville, we’ve stayed focused on one thing: making insurance easier to understand and easier to use.

Personal Service

Over the years, we’ve worked with clients from every background—from newly retired couples sorting out Medicare to small businesses looking to support their team without breaking the budget. We believe that the best service is honest, personal, and responsive. And that’s what we bring to every conversation.

What Makes Us Different

We’re Independent

That means we’re not tied to one carrier or one product. We’ll show you options from multiple companies and help you find the one that truly fits your needs.

We’re Accessible

No phone trees. No jumping through hoops. When you call, you talk to us—real people who know your situation and actually want to help.

We’re With You Year-Round

Many agencies disappear after enrollment. Not us. Whether it's helping with a denied claim, a confusing bill, or open enrollment decisions, we’re here for the long run.

Our Commitment

We work hard to earn trust, not just business. Our approach is grounded in responsiveness, respect, and real-world support. We aim to make insurance feel like a service—not a burden.



You’ll never be treated like a policy number. You’ll be treated like a person.
