Last Chance to Vote on Industry Trends!

There are just a few days left to weigh in on which industry trends cause you the most pain! There’s still time — but only a little — to be part of the market research ASPPA is conducting. After the third week, the top five pain points are:
 
  1. Mergers and acquisitions/Controlled groups and affiliated service groups (tie; mergers and acquisitions still at number 1, Controlled groups up from number 2) 
  2. Compliance issues as a result of sponsor apathy/Service provider and participant disclosures (tie; Compliance issues up from number 3, Service providers up from number 4)
  3. Definition of compensation 
  4. Affiliated service groups and controlled groups (still at number 4)
  5. Compensation for sole proprietors, partners and members of LLC

To vote, click here. It only takes a few minutes to participate in this fun, interactive online voting tool. Here’s how it works:

The online tool presents two session ideas. You pick your favorite — or add your own idea for others to vote on. The process is then repeated, with two more ideas to choose from and another chance to suggest a better one. Each time you suggest an idea, it’s added to the pool of ideas others will vote on.

The poll will run until Monday, June 30; we’ll let you know about the winning ideas. Nearly 9,000 votes have been cast so far — is yours one of them?
