Technology-driven partnership provides end-to-end digital quote and purchase experience
BOSTON, July 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Simply Business, LLC., the leading digital insurance broker focused on small businesses, today announced a collaboration with EMPLOYERS, a leading provider of workers' compensation insurance. This expansion of Simply Business' offering supports the company's ability to digitally quote and bind workers' compensation policies for over 300 different types of small businesses across all eligible states.
"EMPLOYERS is known for delivering comprehensive workers' compensation solutions that help small business owners safeguard their businesses and employees," said Samantha Roady, U.S. CEO at Simply Business. "Through their extensive appetite and national footprint, we'll be able to effectively serve more small business customers across various industries."
Businesses with more than one employee are required by most states to carry workers' compensation insurance, but small businesses may not know where to go to purchase the coverage they require, or they find it prohibitively expensive. Simply Business focuses on the unique needs of small business owners and works with top providers to offer tailored and affordable solutions.
"We're excited to partner with Simply Business, which shares our mission to provide cost-effective insurance to America's small businesses," said Chris Champlin, Vice President of Digital Sales at EMPLOYERS. "Simply Business' intuitive online platform will enable us to meet more customers where they are and help them secure the workers' compensation coverage they need."
The addition of EMPLOYERS expands Simply Business' already diverse panel of nationally recognized workers' compensation providers, including its most recent strategic collaboration announced in 2023 with Cerity Insurance.
