It's Local Art and Craft Fair Season!
It's a busy time of year for your home business insureds who exhibit at small township art and craft fairs. Make sure they're prepared with an RLI Home Business Insurance policy. Most event hosts - including art and craft fairs - require insureds to provide proof of general liability insurance as part of their contract. RLI makes this easy with a quick online quoting and application process, additional insured endorsements and bound policy and paperwork, typically the same day the application is submitted.

Make the Most of Modular Design

Or perhaps you associate Ikea with their modular designs that allow consumers to mix and match sofa pieces, kitchen cupboards, shelving and more to create the right fit for their interiors.  The benefit of modular design is that you can create your own combination, and with insurance, a modular approach can save your client money, too.
