If you are a small business owner, you know how important it is to protect your business and your investment. Most business owners know they need "commercial insurance," but few business owners understand what is or is not covered in their policies. At Hyman Brown Insurance Agency Inc. serving Commerce, GA we love educating our clients and future clients on what they need to know to make the best insurance choices. 

What Is Commercial Insurance?

Commercial insurance is a generic term used to describe insurance policies that protect businesses. In many cases, commercial insurance is simply liability insurance to cover incidents that could take place on your business property. These types of policies are hardly adequate to cover the many types of liability that a business owner can be at risk of. It is good to dig deeply into insurance policy coverages to make sure you are fully protected. 

What Types of Coverage Do I Need?

In most cases a business owner will want to cover three bases of insurance protections. Property insurance will cover both your equipment on your property as well as the premises of your business. Worker’s compensation insurance will protect your workers in the event they are injured while performing their work duties. The last type of insurance coverage you will need is commercial liability insurance. This coverage protects you in the event that a third party is injured at your place of business or as a result of your goods or services. 

How Much Coverage Do I Need?

Determining the amount of commercial insurance you will need is dependent on the number of assets you have to protect, as well as the risk factor your business poses. Speaking with an insurance representative is the best way to determine how much coverage you will need.
