Common Misconceptions About Commercial Insurance

As a small business owner, you know that insurance is essential for protecting your business. But when it comes to choosing a policy, there are so many options and terms that it can be challenging to know where to start. In this post, we’ll dispel some of the most common misconceptions about commercial insurance so that you can make an informed decision about what’s best for your business.

1. Commercial Insurance Policies Are All the Same

While there are several standard commercial insurance options, each policy has different benefits and exclusions that can make a world of difference. For example, one policy may cover you for business interruption, while another won’t. One policy may cover certain types of damage to your property, while another won’t. One policy may cover certain types of liability suits, while another won’t.

2. I’ll Be Safe if I Do Everything by the Book

Whether you have employees or are a one-person shop, it’s essential to ask yourself if all of your bases are covered. Even if you have the best employees, accidents happen. If an uninsured accident occurs on your property and someone is injured, not only will you likely be liable for damages (pain and suffering, medical bills), but your business will also suffer. On the other hand, if you purchase coverage for this type of event, you’ll be protecting your self from financial disaster.

3. Commercial Insurance Is Expensive

While it’s true that more extensive policies will carry a more substantial fee, don’t let insurance prices scare you. There are ways of ensuring that your policy fits your needs without breaking the bank. For example, if you’re starting and can get by with minimal coverage, you can opt for a policy with lower premiums. Or, you can ask your agent to add endorsements to the policy to give it some extra perks without going over budget.

Commercial insurance policies are not all the same, and it’s important to choose your coverage wisely. If you want to ensure that your business is protected, Kempton Insurance Group in Charlotte, NC can help. We offer affordable commercial insurance options such as property, liability, general liability, and umbrella coverage. Give us a call today.
