​Progressive® Launches New Online Quoting Platform for Small Business Owners

MAYFIELD VILLAGE, OH… Progressive, a leader in the insurance industry, introduces BusinessQuote Explorer® (BQX), a new, easy-to-use online quoting platform established to help small business owners get accurate insurance quotes tailored to their unique business needs.

By simply entering information through the online platform, users will gain access to multiple business insurance quotes in an average of 11 minutes or less, lowering the time and stress associated with determining coverage needs, a typically time-consuming task.

"We understand the number of demands today's small business owners are faced with and are constantly looking at ways we can innovate the process of quoting business insurance to save them time and alleviate their questions and concerns," added John Barbagallo, Progressive's Commercial Lines President. "With BusinessQuote Explorer®, we help make the process of selecting an insurer and getting an accurate quote fast and easy so small business owners can get back to what matters most – running their business."

BQX puts small business insurance shopping into the hands of business owners, providing the ability for the customer to evaluate multiple quotes to find the right insurance options to protect their livelihood. Each business is unique, therefore necessary coverages and limits can vary from business to business. Currently, BQX offers quotes for business owner, professional liability, workers' compensation, and general liability policies.
