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.
