NORTHBROOK, Ill., Nov. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Allstate
Business Insurance and Business Talent Group (BTG) have
announced a relationship designed to serve the specific needs of
high-end independent business consultants in the BTG network. As
one of the many benefits available to BTG's independent
consultants, the Allstate Business Shield for BTG program
provides an exclusive portal through which consultants can acquire
insurance solutions tailored to their unique needs.
"By placing valuable tools and resources conveniently in one
place, we've created a one-stop experience for consultants," said
Mike Barton, president of Allstate
Business Insurance. "We are committed to helping small business
owners succeed and providing value beyond the insurance
transaction. We help business owners manage the risks they face so
they can focus on their clients, not their insurance."
Insurance coverage for cyber security breaches, onsite
liabilities and business property damage are some of the
protections and services offered as part of the program designed
specifically for BTG.
The Allstate Business Shield for BTG provides independent
consultants with the protection they may need against conditions
and events such as:
- Risks associated with working from a home office
- Liabilities while working onsite at a client's location
- Damage to their business property
- Cyber security breaches of a client's private and confidential
information
The portal includes information to help independent consultants
understand their most common business risks, access online tools
for small business efficiency, and connect them with resources
designed to help them as small business owners. BTG, the leading
provider of on-demand business talent, is the first and only
independent consultant network to offer the Allstate product bundle
to its talent pool.
BTG Co-founder and CEO Jody Greenstone Miller said, "The
strength of our business comes from the exceptional quality of our
independent talent pool, which helps our clients work faster,
smarter and more efficiently. Allying with Allstate—one of
America's most trusted brands—allows us to provide industry-leading
tools and resources that help our consultants protect their
businesses. That's just one of the ways we intend to attract and
support the absolute best independent professionals so we can help
our clients solve critical business problems."
