Business Owners Policy
Many companies may find it more affordable to combine coverage into a business owners policy. These insurance packages are geared especially towards smaller ventures that do not have excessive or overly specialized risk factors. By combining your insurance coverage, you can get more affordable and more streamlined insurance coverage.
A business owner’s policy typically begins with your property insurance and general liability coverage. From there, you can often customize the package to best suit your needs by adding optional coverage to your policy. This way you can usually get the coverage your business needs at a lower cost than buying separately. Your agent can help you determine if you are eligible for a business owner’s policy.
Small companies are essential to the Massachusetts economy. However, just because your business is small doesn’t mean it doesn’t have large risks. The rate of failure is extremely high among smaller companies that suffer significant loss. Protect your business from this fate with comprehensive small business insurance coverage.
