BEFORE REQUESTING QUOTES

Bring the same facts to every conversation.

Consistent inputs make differences in price, coverage, and service easier to see.

Business snapshot

Operations, ownership, years in business, customers, territory, revenue, payroll, employees, and subcontractor costs.

Assets and obligations

Locations, property, inventory, equipment, vehicles, leases, contracts, certificates, and data handled.

QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING

A lower price is not the whole answer.

Take notes and request important explanations in writing. The policy and endorsements—not a verbal summary—control coverage.

Which industries and business sizes does the agency regularly serve?
Which insurers or other markets could be considered for this operation?
What exclusions, audits, warranties, or coverage gaps deserve special attention?
Who handles certificates, policy changes, renewals, and claim support?
