Getting a cheap business insurance quote – quicker than an Easter egg hunt

OK, so in the interest of trying to be seasonal I could have picked a better opening line. But, looking back over some videos from past Easter weekends, I estimate it takes a good ten or fifteen minutes for a normal hunt. When I say normal, this is when you do tend to give the kids a few clues for the slightly harder to find ones.

So, fifteen minutes tops, can you get a small business insurance quote in that time? The answer, in 2010, is yes. But, you need to be selective about where you go, who you speak to and importantly, what information you have to hand. The best way to get yourself a decent, quick quote is to speak to an online business insurance broker. Make sure that they are independent (check their website) and that they have the ability to do a “whole of market” search.

For example, if you are looking for a shop insurance quote, if you spend more than 15 minutes on the phone discussing this for a quote then there really is something wrong. Most commercial and business insurance companies have standard packages for most types of business (pubs, hotels, shops, office’s etc). For this reason, they only need about 10 or 15 questions answered and this will give you the quote you need.

As a service standard, we aim to provide a full written quote, via email, within two hours of your call in 90% of cases.

So, we are not saying that you should look for a quote when you should be hiding and finding your Easter eggs, but when you are back at work, fully refreshed after the Bank Holidays, give us a call and see what we can do for you.
