Often times when we review a policy for a new client we will discover gaps in coverage where the business owner may have believed they had coverage when in fact they did not.
A business insurance coverage area that is of particular importance in today’s world is that of Cyber Liability. Another term for this is Data Breach.

Just look to the news to learn how Data Breach and Cyber Liability can be crippling to any business, small or large. Another area of concern is workers compensation insurance. Workers compensation can be the most costly part of any business operations overall business insurance program. Workers compensation is a special area of business insurance that we provide.

Commercial Insurance Package Policy vs. Business Owners Policy (BOP)
Think of a Commercial Package Policy as a stereo system where you buy each component individually. So you would buy the receiver, speakers, remote, and every other part and accessory separate from each other. A business insurance package is just that, individual insurance coverage parts like, general liability, property, equipment and tools, cyber liability, employee practices and employee benefits liability, business personal property of others, loss of income, crime and others that are packaged together to form one master policy for your individual business. A Commercial Package Policy will commonly be needed for the larger more complicated business operation. Think of a manufacturing operation with multiple plant locations or multiple products that they make and sell over a broad market. When it comes to designing a special insurance program to fit your individual company’s insurance needs then it’s the Commercial Package Policy that will fit the bill!
In contrast, a BOP policy is much like a stereo-in-a-box. All of the pieces you need come pre-packaged. Where the Commercial Package Policy brings all the individual stand-alone policies together under one blanket policy, the Business Owners Policy is one policy that includes liability coverage, property coverage, business income, crime and other insurance coverage options all within it’s individual policy. The Business Owners Policy will fit the need for a small business operation. Think of the businesses located in the downtown area of your town. Shoe stores, clothing stores, coffee shops and sandwich shops, accounting offices and other service or small retail operations. It’s because these types of businesses will qualify for the Business Owners Policy.
