You've worked hard on your business, it's time to protect it
What is Commercial Insurance?
Commercial Insurance, also called Business Insurance, protects you and your business if something were to go wrong. It provides coverage for various risks and liabilities that a business may face on a day-to-day basis. There are many different coverage options and combinations available because no two businesses are exactly alike.
When you’re buying commercial insurance, think of it like you’re going grocery shopping. Each coverage is a separate product on the shelf that you can add to your cart. There are different sizes and options available that we can find to best suit your needs. Your cart then represents your total policy. The more coverage you have, the more protected you are, but that doesn’t mean just buy everything in sight. Based on your situation, you’ll most likely just need a few of them.
But don’t worry, we’ll ask you the right questions, and help you decide exactly what you need so you’re completely protected and not paying for something you don’t need.
What does Commercial Insurance cover?
Liability Insurance
Commercial Liability Insurance is usually the most important type of business insurance. It provides coverage against lawsuits, third-party bodily injury, advertising liability, third-party property damage, completed operations, product liability, and even recalls.
Commercial Auto Insurance
Business Auto Insurance provides coverage for everything related to company-owned cars, trucks, vans, and more. It offers Collision, Rental Insurance, and Comprehensive OTC (other than collision). Comp OTC includes coverages such as theft, liability, and vandalism.
Commercial Property Insurance
Business Property Insurance provides coverage for everything related to company-owned buildings, contents, and signage. This can include damage from vandalism, fire, natural disasters, and more.
Workers' Compensation
Most businesses are required to have workers’ compensation which provides medical benefits and wage replacement to employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses.
Industry-Specific
This type of coverage varies based on what industry you work in. For example, a restaurant owner may want to have mechanical breakdown coverage just in case a freezer breaks and all of the food spoils. This would cover the lost food and the cost of the repairs to the freezer.
Cyber Insurance
With the benefits that come with today’s technology, the risk of hacking is always prevalent. Cyber Insurance protects against spyware and hacking. It may cover lost or stolen research and development, customer information, and even help with the cost of rebuilding.
Business Interruption Insurance
If something causes a disruption in your business operations, Business Interruption Insurance can help cover lost revenue, extra expenses, and ongoing fixed costs. This can cover a wide range of events like a fire or even just loss of power due to a natural disaster.

Although these are the most common areas of commercial insurance, there are many options that may be the right fit for you. Have something in mind that you want covered? Talk to one of our agents who can guide you through the process of finding the right coverage for the right price.
