What You Need to Know About Small Business Insurance
We value the entrepreneurial spirit. We can help you implement the proper risk management strategy and insurance coverages to protect the business you have created and to ensure that your business continues to have an opportunity to succeed and grow.
The following are some key coverages to consider for your small business:
Commercial Liability
As a business owner, you are potentially liable for every product, service, and operation relating to your business. While sound procedures may be stressed throughout your organization, the fact remains that no person or machine is perfect. In spite of your best efforts, harm caused to a third party relating to your business could lead to litigation. Commercial liability insurance is designed to protect business owners and assets from a variety of exposures.
Property
Imagine that a fire breaks out and you lose your entire inventory, or your business is burglarized causing physical damage and possibly lost assets. Your ability to recover from these incidents is dependent on your commercial property insurance.
Inland Marine
Do you have business equipment, materials, or supplies in transit? Do you store business property in an off-site location? Protect some of your most valuable business property or equipment wherever it may be with inland marine coverage.
Flood/Earthquake
Your basic insurance policy does not protect you against damage from earthquakes and floods. Whether you are in a high-risk area or moderate-to-low risk area, you should consider adding earthquake and flood insurance to your policy. More than half of all flood claims occur in areas considered to have low flood exposure, and each year there are around 5,000 earthquakes in the United States.
Business Auto
Imagine you were involved in an accident in your personal vehicle while engaged in company business. Did you know your personal insurance may not cover you? What if you have employees on the road making service calls to customers? Commercial auto insurance provides valuable protection for your company-owned vehicles, leased or rented vehicles, and your employees' vehicles used for business purposes.
Excess/Umbrella
Without an excess or umbrella policy, a catastrophic claim could deplete your future income and business assets. Every business is vulnerable to devastating losses and lawsuits that could possibly exceed your primary insurance coverage. This is a critical coverage—especially for small to mid-sized businesses.
