• For example, if you have a bakery that uses
  mixers and ovens, these would be covered under
  this category. Its also important to consider
  how much coverage you want for each type of
  property before making a purchase. For example,
  while both building and contents insurance may be
  needed in some instances, one might offer more
  coverage than the other depending on your needs
  (i.e., an office building may need more coverage
  than a home).
• With all of these considerations in mind, make
  sure to read through the entirety of any policy
  offered so you know what youre getting into.
  Youll find yourself paying higher premiums for
  certain types of policies, but without
  understanding what they cover, you wont know
  whether or not theyre worth it.

  different aspects of your business.

Internet is a great resource. You can quickly and
easily get quotes from a variety of insurers.

  willing to give them some business.

  to read the entire thing before signing on the
  dotted line. In most cases, youll have an
  opportunity to review the contracts terms before
  finalizing your purchase.

  cases, policies will require yearly renewal at

  and make changes accordingly.

  owners have is How much business insurance do I

  need depends on a variety of factors, including
  the size and scope of your business, your
  industry, your location, and more.

  liability, property, and casualty. Liability
  protects against legal claims such as wrongful

  property covers physical damage to your property
  such as fire or burglary. Casualty protects
  against incidents like storm damage or vandalism
  that can happen anywhere in the world (not just
  where you operate).
