Simply Business Expands Partnership with RLI to Offer Tailored Professional Liability Insurance
BOSTON, June 16, 2025 – Simply Business, LLC, a leading digital insurance marketplace for small businesses, has expanded its partnership with specialty insurer RLI to introduce a new professional liability (PL) insurance product. This new offering is designed to meet the growing demand from specialized service professionals who require tailored insurance solutions.
The new PL insurance product covers a wide range of businesses, including business consulting, pet and lifestyle services, creative and instructional professions, and administrative and professional services. Simply Business’s fully digital platform allows these businesses to complete one application, compare multiple quotes, and purchase comprehensive PL coverage online in minutes.
“Our goal at Simply Business is to empower small business owners by listening to their needs and delivering insurance products that truly work for them,” said Samantha Roady, U.S. CEO of Simply Business. “This professional liability offering directly addresses the needs of specialized service professionals, furthering our commitment to building flexible, customer-driven insurance solutions.”
The partnership between Simply Business and RLI began in 2022, when they first collaborated to provide home-based businesses with accessible insurance that covers risks not typically included in standard homeowners’ insurance policies. The introduction of this new PL offering marks a significant expansion of their partnership.
“Expanding our partnership with Simply Business helps us continue to grow our distribution and reach new market segments,” said RLI Corp. Chief Operating Officer Jen Klobnak. “Small business owners can now easily safeguard their livelihoods and pursue growth with greater confidence.”
