Q: What do you say when a tech company asks why they should look at ALLtech?
Josh Storms: I tell them ALLtech was built for them. We’re not trying to fit tech companies into a general solution—we designed this trust specifically for the PNW tech community. Whether they’re a small startup or scaling fast, ALLtech gives them access to benefits that are usually out of reach.

Q: Who qualifies to join ALLtech?
Josh Storms: Any tech company in the Pacific Northwest. I work with groups as small as two employees and as large as several hundred. ALLtech is about leveling the playing field so even the smallest teams can offer top-tier benefits.

Q: What types of coverage does ALLtech include?
Josh Storms: Medical, dental, vision, life, and disability. We work with top carriers like Regence, Delta Dental, and VSP. That gives companies access to solid networks and flexible options—without overpaying.

Q: A lot of companies worry about cost. How does ALLtech help?
Josh Storms: That’s usually the first thing people ask. The trust model lets us negotiate group rates, which drives costs down. Most of the companies I work with are surprised at how competitive the pricing is once they see the options.

Q: How hard is it to manage the plans?
Josh Storms: We make it simple. Companies get support for enrollment, compliance, and day-to-day admin. It’s a big difference from going it alone or trying to manage a piecemeal setup.

Q: What role do benefits play in hiring and retention?
Josh Storms: A big one. The tech space is competitive. If you’re not offering good benefits, you’re already behind. ALLtech gives companies the tools to compete—especially with job seekers who expect strong health coverage as part of the deal.

Q: Is ALLtech only for early-stage startups?
Josh Storms: Not at all. I work with a mix of pre-IPO startups and well-established tech firms. What they have in common is the need for flexible, affordable benefits that grow with them. That’s where ALLtech fits in.

Q: What’s the main takeaway for companies considering ALLtech?
Josh Storms: You don’t have to be a big company to offer great benefits. ALLtech gives you access, affordability, and support—all in one place.

Q: How do they get started?
Josh Storms: Just reach out. I’m happy to walk through the details and help compare options. You can also check out more at ALLtech Benefits.

If you are ready to offer your team competitive, affordable benefits without the headache of complex administration, ALLtech is here to help. Learn more about how ALLtech can support your company’s growth and success by visiting ALLtech Benefits.
