When Is It Time to Purchase Commercial Insurance?

If you already own any type of business and you’re asking yourself this question, the answer is yesterday. If your business is not yet started but is in the works, now is a perfect time to talk to an insurance agent at E.S.T.I.R. Inc. to discuss your options.

The best time to purchase commercial insurance is in the planning stage of your business. This way you have time to work with your insurance agent to build the perfect policy for your needs. By talking about the vision for your business with your insurance agent, you can work with them to create your customized plan. When you talk to your agent as you’re planning your business and your insurance plan, you can discuss the types of coverage you’ll need such as property, liability, business interruption coverage, and more.

Just as important as buying your initial commercial insurance policy is updating your policy as your business grows and your needs change. For example, if you move from a home business to a brick and mortar office space, it’s definitely time to revisit your policy. This is especially important if you were initially insuring your business through your homeowner’s policy instead of through a commercial insurance policy. If you wait to make changes or buy new insurance, you could be left with gaps and devastating losses in the event of an incident at your business.

It doesn’t matter how big or small your business is, if it’s not already insured, it needs to be right away. If your business is located in or near Newark, NJ, contact an agent at E.S.T.I.R. Inc. right away to discuss your commercial insurance options. We’ll work with you to create the perfect policy for your business.
