A Message from the CEO:

Growth comes from doing and then reflecting. I was recently asked what advice I’d give to others who wanted to engage in a collaborative creation. That took some reflection and turned into the 8 Imperatives of Open Innovation which I had the opportunity to share at InsurTech North. Being part of this wave of change is truly exciting and watching our user base expand is taking change in the right direction.

A Message from the CEO:

APEXA hit a key milestone this month by doubling our client base. We started the company with 9 Carriers and MGAs and this month we all cheered as #19 crossed the line. Then we threw the noise makers in our desks and got back to work on the 21 companies teed up and ready to go live next. 

Yes, this is our scale-up year and we’re loving the momentum as we expand our client base as well as our team and welcome over one hundred new Advisors to the platform week after week. If you’ve been holding off on choosing your go live date for 2019, don’t delay. There are only a few spots left so reach out to dylan.friedmann@apexa.ca today.

A Message from the CEO:

You don’t even need to ask, we’ve got your back. That’s the essence of APEXA. We take care of monitoring compliance and sending you alerts so you can focus on other, more important things.

A Message from the CEO:

“Everything stinks until its finished” Wisdom by the whimsical author Dr. Seuss who would have turned 115 this month. I like the simplicity of this quote which reminds us that new things feel like a challenge until you push through and experience the rewards. If you are onboarding this year and are thinking about how to prepare your organization, follow our content on change management and our feature this month on Five Ways to Boost Advisor Registrations. And remember to lean on us because it’s our job to make things stink less for you.

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss and happy reading to all of you.
