Worried about the cost of commercial insurance? You’re not alone. However, there are ways to keep premiums in check.

We can help you:

✅ Perform an annual risk assessment to reduce potential claims.
✅ Review your deductibles and coverage with your agent.
✅ Combine policies to take advantage of multi-policy discounts.

Your insurance plan should evolve as your business grows and so should your savings opportunities.

If you're running a business from home or have no employees, you might be wondering if you need to get small business coverage. Here’s what you should know:

✅Most homeowner’s policies don’t fully cover business-related equipment or liability.
✅ A general liability policy is often a smart (and affordable) place to start for small business owners running their business out of their home.
✅ If you use a personal vehicle for deliveries, client meetings, or equipment transport, you may need commercial auto coverage, too.

Have questions about your current coverage or want help closing gaps? Just give us a call. We’re happy to help.

Owning a small business can come with a lot of considerations, regardless of whether you’re just starting out or have been running your business for years. One major thing that business owners need to consider is their commercial insurance coverage. It can be tricky for small businesses to balance cost and crucial coverage.

With that in mind, we wanted to share a few foundational coverages most small businesses benefit from:

✅ General Liability Insurance helps against bodily injury or property damage claims.
✅ Commercial Property Insurance can help cover buildings, equipment, and inventory.
✅ Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) will typically combine liability and property insurance into one affordable package.
✅ Workers’ Compensation Insurance is required in most states if you have employees.

Your needs will depend on your industry, size, and risk profile, but having the right coverage can help save you from costly surprises.

Our firm is here to help make sure that you have the coverage you need without breaking the bank. If you have a question about the right type of insurance for your small business, give us a call.

An Exciting New Chapter

I'm honored to announce that as of December 2025, I have become the owner of Fred Thomas Agency.

Since 1867, this agency has been built on a foundation of trust, protection, and service to our community. I've been privileged to serve as a partner for several years, and I'm deeply grateful to Jeffrey and Nancy Peters, who have owned and guided this agency with excellence since 1977. Their dedication to our clients and our community set a standard I'm committed to upholding.

As we move forward, our mission remains unchanged: providing the same personalized service and comprehensive protection you've come to expect. I'm fortunate to continue working alongside our talented team, whose expertise and dedication have been instrumental to our agency's success. The relationships you've built with them will continue to be the cornerstone of how we serve you.

Whether you're a longtime client or considering us for the first time, you can count on the same commitment, the same local expertise, and the same caring service that has served this community for over 150 years. Our office is home to five licensed agents—myself, Joe Matusek, Brenda White, Mallory Schoenwetter, and Christina Renaud—bringing decades of combined
experience to serve you. Please feel free to reach out to any of us.

Thank you for your continued trust. We look forward to serving you for many years to come.
