WASHINGTON, April 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Small business
owners will have expanded access to a full range of commercial
insurance products regardless of their risk type under a new
relationship announced today between one of the country's leading
national advocacy groups and one of the most innovative insurance
brokerage firms.
The National Federation of Independent Business
(NFIB), representing hundreds of thousands of local business
owners around the country, has partnered with
SelectSolutions Insurance Services, LLC, a leading
brokerage agency that specializes in property and casualty
insurance for small businesses of every size and type. The
arrangement gives NFIB members access to sometimes hard-to-find
business coverage at the most competitive prices
available.
The NFIB/SelectSolutions relationship offers a number of
advantages for NFIB members, including access to:
- Multiple quotes from different insurance carriers
- Licensed insurance representatives
- Options for higher risk businesses from over 100 carriers
nationwide
"Providing our members with a commercial insurance solution
regardless of their risk has been a goal for our organization for
many years," said NFIB Sr. Vice President of Marketing
Mark Garzone. "With
SelectSolutions, we are now able to offer small business owners
expanded access to business insurance products regardless of their
risk type."
Commercial insurance is a necessity for small business owners
who could otherwise lose everything because of an accident or
claim. Finding the right coverage is often difficult,
however, and choices are sometimes limited.
"Our members don't have in-house insurance experts who can help
them navigate the market," said Garzone. "That's why we're
very pleased to have SelectSolutions as a provider. Their
licensed representatives will be able to assist our members so that
they are aware of the coverage options that are specific to their
businesses and get multiple quotes so that they can find the best
plan at the best price."
John Prichard, President and
CEO of SelectSolutions, said the new relationship is a good fit
for both organizations.
"NFIB is the country's leading advocacy group for small business
owners. We specialize exclusively in helping small business
owners. So it's a very natural partnership," he said.
"Our ability to balance the highest level of consultative customer
service with state of the art technology, allows NFIB members to
take advantage of insurance carrier access that they didn't have
previously."
The program will be administered by NFIB Member Services
Corporation (MSC), a wholly owned, for profit, subsidiary of
National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) and MSC
Insurance Agency of Tennessee,
LLC., a wholly owned subsidiary of MSC. Visit MemberVantage
