Small Business Liability Insurance

General Liability Insurance Quote

Van Insurance Quote — Know What to Look Out for

Small business insurance varies greatly in cost. Around thirty five hundred ponuds a year is average. Small business insurance providers are likely to change your van insurance quote based on the size of your business. This is determined by looking at how many employees you have, how much sales you do, and how risky the insurance company feels that you will be to insure.

Be sure to ask your agent to explain all the insurance categories that you might choose. Otherwise, you could risk being lumped in with other businesses that aren’t suitable. Network installers and resellers are, for instance, very different from software developers, but risk being categorized with them if their business is not properly explained to the agent.

Each subcontractor you work with should also maintain both professional and general liability insurance, as well as errors and omissions coverage. Your insurance policy is unlikely to cover them. If you are covering them, realize that you are providing benefits similar to those given to an employee, rather than those usually provided to a contractor. Most people hire contractors to save money, so this is worth considering.

Be sure to talk to both your attorney and insurance agent when you apply for a business van insurance quote. This is especially true if you already have an existing agent for property and contents insurance policies. You may also wish to consult with your accountant to find out what sort of small business van insurance you will be able to afford.

Insurance premium question for consulting firm startup?

I’m thinking of starting a consulting company. It would basically be a Management Services type firm. No design, construction, manufacturing, etc..

Well, the big question is, what EXACTLY is management services? That’s not a workers comp class code. And what’s the EXPOSURE on the professional liability? What type of BUSINESS do you want to consult for, what are the EXACT services you’re going to render, how many employees, what’s the payroll and estimated sales?

AND, what’s going to be required by contract? Are “co-owners” partners, or shareholders? Are they active, or passive?

Expect these to be MINIMUMS, and it will only go up based on your answers above: GL, starting at $1,000 as a new venture, based on payroll or sales. Workers Comp, minimum premium of $500, but could be as much as 25% of your payroll. Depending on the class, minimum could be MUCH higher. Professional liability – plan on $1500 per employee. It could vary from $500 to $5,000, depending on the EXACT nature of the services rendered, per employee. Health insurance will be individually rated – with three non-related people, that’s not enough for a group in most states. So if you’re 25 and healthy, $250 a month for just you.
