About Leslie Saunders Insurance, Benefits and Training

The world is constantly changing, and we felt it was time for us to change too! We have updated our website to provide you with the most relevant information about our firm’s products and services. One thing that has not changed is our commitment to deliver predictability, improved performance and increased profitability -- three important aspects for every successful business. Not only do you benefit from our years of expertise in providing high-quality insurance programs, employee benefits and training, you also receive our personal and professional attention.

 

I hope you will take a few moments to peruse the new site and see the variety of products and services Leslie Saunders can offer your organization. We feel it is important for you to know that we have been providing services as a certified woman-owned business for more than 20 years. As your partner, we help your organization meet minority business contract requirements and quotas established by your customers as well as local, state, and federal agencies. In fact, all our service offerings will help you achieve Tier I and Tier II Supplier Diversity goals, as well as comply with DOT DBE 49 CRF 23 and 26 requirements.

 

We are the largest diversity supplier to Avis Budget Group, which recently was honored by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) as one of America's Top Corporations for Women's Business Enterprises. This is the 11th consecutive year that WBENC has recognized this leading car rental company’s supplier diversity program for excellence. We are proud to be their partner and commend their commitment to providing business opportunities to our firm and other women's business enterprises.

 

When your organization purchases goods and services from a minority-owned or woman-owned business like ours, it is a win-win opportunity for your company and ours. As Ronald L. Nelson, Avis Budget Group chairman and chief executive officer noted in its March 2, 2011, press release, "A diversified supplier chain is invaluable to our company's growth. We remain committed to providing women-owned, minority-owned and small businesses with equal access to compete for corporate contracts. We proudly accept the recognition as one of America's Top Corporations for Women's Business Enterprises."
