Protect your company from unexpected risks by securing inexpensive insurance coverage from Progressive Commercial. We'll help you find affordable small business insurance that's right for you.
Affordable business insurance coverage types
Because various factors impact insurance costs, it's hard to label one type as the cheapest. Progressive Commercial can provide the low-cost coverage you want without giving up the quality and protection you need. Common types of insurance for small businesses include:
- General liability insurance: Covers customer injury, property damage, advertising injury, and product-related claims.
- Workers' compensation insurance: Protects you if your employees get injured or sick on the job.
- Commercial auto insurance: Provides protection for your business vehicles.
- Business owners policy (BOP): Combines business liability and property coverage in one policy.
Start with a risk assessment of your business
Before choosing an insurance policy, identify any risks associated with various aspects of your business, such as your industry, location, and number of employees. Understanding potential risks upfront can make it easier to find the right coverage.
What's the cost of a business insurance policy?
Various factors determine how much your business insurance costs. When considering the cheapest business insurance for your specific needs, we'll assess things like your:
- Type of business: If you're in a low-risk industry or don't interact with the public, your insurance premiums may be lower.
- Size of business: The smaller your business, the less you'll pay for insurance.
- Location of business: If your business is in a safe area, you may be able to save on your premiums.
- Claims history: Insurers typically review any previous claims you submitted. You might be rewarded with lower rates if you have a clean history.
Our expert agents carefully review your information to help you find coverage that fits.

Strategies for saving on business insurance
When looking for inexpensive business insurance, you can lower costs with some simple strategies.
Choose the right type and amount of coverage
You want the right amount of protection to safeguard your business, but you don't want to overpay for unnecessary coverage. Talk to an agent or start an online quote to find the right insurance.
Increase your deductible
Raising your deductible can lower premiums because it reduces the financial risk for insurers. If you can afford to pay a higher deductible and your claim history is low, this approach can save you money.
Maintain a clean claims history
Many insurers offer lower premiums and better coverage options to businesses with fewer claims. You may also be able to negotiate rates and terms.
Compare quotes
Shopping around for the most affordable business insurance is another effective strategy. Getting multiple quotes and comparing your options is a great way to find the cheapest business insurance.
