Working with Blackbird

We help companies big and small – nonprofits, fellow B Corps, and generally speaking – organizations working to make the world a better place. Here’s a look at what Blackbird can offer.

We are the hosts with the most. The Robo-Hosts. 

We apply the principals of a thoughtful host, hold space for you, anticipate your needs—and thoughtfully address them. To that end, we offer a unique, customized consulting approach to support your success. We create an experience that delivers results with style—as well as the occasional music recommendation, yoga class, dog video, or cooking tip—just to keep things interesting.

Our high-touch, hands-on service model will make you feel like you’re our only client. Everything we do is customized—we don’t drop you into cookie-cutter deliverables so we can move on to the next sale.

Here’s a detailed look at the services we offer:

  • Traditional Benefits

    Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, Disability, EAP, FSA / HSA / HRA. We work with all key players both local and nationally.

  • Unique Benefits for Unique Living

    It’s Portland. We walk, bike, skate, and now apparently, we scoot. It’s inevitable we’re going to bump into, or fall off, something at some point. We’ll help you put benefits in place to cover the bills while you get back on your feet (or wheels).

  • A Better Employee Experience

    Driven by human connection. (Don’t worry, there are still all the apps and web tools too…)

  • Compliance Support

    We’ve got you covered with regular updates, checklists, and vendor partners to keep you on the right side of the DOL.

  • Alternative Funding Models

    If you’re anything like us, you hate to leave money on the table (or generally light it on fire). We’ll show you creative ways to take more control (without taking more risk).

  • Advocacy

    What could be worse than dealing with a serious health condition, than getting a notice your bills aren’t covered? We’ll help by taking that burden off your plate and working fiercely to get you resolution.

  • Customized Employee Communications with Multi-Generational Reach

    Because one size doesn’t fit all, and everyone receives information differently.

  • Executive Benefits

    Your top executives have a different set of needs, and we’ll help you find Solutions to ensure they’re fully protected.
