Our commercial insurance quote process is designed to be streamlined, digital-first, and advisor-led to get you covered quickly and accurately across Canada (excluding Quebec). 

Here is how the quote-to-coverage workflow works:

1. **Initiate a Quote:** You can start your request through our online quote form, via direct email or phone with our account managers, or through our website chat. Industry- and coverage-specific intake forms help guide you to ensure speed and accuracy.
2. **Data Collection:** We collect essential details tailored to your business, such as your legal business name, structure, contact details, industry, operating locations (province/city), years in business, revenue, payroll, description of services, and claims history. 
3. **Market Sweep & Coverage Mapping:** As an independent brokerage, we approach multiple insurers and underwriting portals rather than tying you to a single carrier. We translate your inputs into standard coverages and optional endorsements.
4. **Clear Recommendations & Transparency:** We provide clear recommendations outlining deductibles, sublimits, and any specific lender or landlord requirements. We also provide full transparency on how we are compensated in line with our commission disclosure principles.
5. **Fast Binding & Proof:** Once approved, we issue your policy documents and certificates of insurance (COIs) quickly—often within minutes to 72 hours for standard risks—so you can meet your lease, vendor, or contract requirements without delay.
