Exclusive Insurance Discount

One of your major cost savings benefits as a member is a significant discount on your commercial liability insurance policy. We have a phenomenal agreement with Auto-Owners Insurance that provides savings that will far exceed the cost of your membership at the chamber in most cases. You will need to provide proof of membership, which is easily done by showing your online directory listing on the chamber’s website. You can contact any one of our independent insurance agencies that offer Auto-Owners Insurance to get a quote and to take advantage of the huge savings on critical commercial liability coverage. Contact Ron Hinrichs | [email protected] | for a listing of insurance agencies to get your quote today.
